November 2, 2023--Written by Paul Wiseman for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Two recently announced hydrogen projects in the Houston/Baytown area of the Texas Gulf Coast symbolize the heightened activity for this sector since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act by the U.S. Congress. Also fueling the surge is the Biden administration's inclusion of Houston's HyVelocity hydrogen hub among seven picked earlier this year. Each hub is slated to receive $1.2 billion in federal funding, geared at making hydrogen more available as part of the energy transition.
