Ohio, other Midwestern states agree to collaborate on expanding hydrogen production, use

COLUMBUS, Ohio—, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and his counterparts in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin set up a Midwestern Hydrogen Coalition to collaborate on creating a “robust Midwestern market” for hydrogen and ammonia produced with little or no greenhouse gas emissions.

Participating States will work with commercial partners, universities, and non-profits to evaluate strategic challenges and opportunities in developing a robust Midwestern market for clean hydrogen, green ammonia, and related low- and zero-carbon energy carriers and technologies, and jointly develop solutions.

The agreement is explicitly voluntary and doesn’t create any legally binding commitments or obligations for Ohio or the other states to follow. Ohio or any other participating state may withdraw from the coalition at any time. But the state could produce far more than that. If 15% of Ohio’s natural-gas production is repurposed for hydrogen generation, the study concluded, about 2.5 million metric tons of hydrogen per year could be made for local markets. That’s more than what’s currently needed, but it is “comparable to what will likely be required for projected 2050 Ohio markets,” according to the study.
