DOE Invests $8.8 Million in University Projects to Enhance Hydrogen-Fueled Turbines for Clean Energy Goals

The US Department of Energy has announced $8.8 million in funding for 11 university-based research and development projects to improve the performance of hydrogen-fueled turbines. The projects will develop advanced materials and components that can enable the use of up to 100% clean hydrogen in gas turbines for low-carbon power generation, helping to advance the Biden-Harris Administration goals of 100% carbon-free electricity by 2035 and net-zero emissions economy-wide by 2050. Since 2021, FECM has committed an estimated $147 million in projects exploring new, clean methods to produce hydrogen and improve the efficiency of hydrogen turbines. These commitments support DOE’s Hydrogen Shot initiative, which aims to reduce the cost of clean hydrogen by 80% to $1 per 1 kilogram in one decade to develop and commercialize new clean hydrogen pathways in the US.
