Mitsubishi Power Americas has selected Emerson to automate the world’s largest green hydrogen production and storage facility in Delta, Utah.
Mitsubishi Power will use Emerson’s hydrogen production experience and automation software expertise to increase safety, decrease costs and simplify maintenance.
Advanced Clean Energy Storage hub will use renewable electricity to power electrolyzers to produce green hydrogen. The produced hydrogen will be stored underground in salt caverns so that it can be dispatched when required to generate clean electricity from hydrogen-fueled turbines.
In June 2022, the Department of Energy issued a $504.4 million loan guarantee to finance Advanced Clean Energy Storage. The facility will combine 220 megawatts of alkaline electrolysis with two 4.5 million barrel salt caverns to store clean hydrogen.
