Our project will invest billions of dollars to develop a large-scale wind project likely supplemented with solar to directly power electrolysis and other related synthesis facilities to produce clean hydrogen in Eastern Wyoming.
This “clean hydrogen” may be used directly as a renewable fuel or could be combined with other gasses to make ammonia or synthetic fuel, such as green diesel, using well-established chemical processes.
The hydrogen and synthesis facilities will have a footprint of about 50 acres, and the wind project will include hundreds of the latest state-of-the-art wind turbines.
Agriculture and other land uses would continue alongside the project throughout its lifetime.
