Avina’s Southern California Clean Hydrogen Project Hits Major Milestone

Company receives necessary permits to begin construction of North America’s landmark on-site electrolytic hydrogen production and dispensing facility.

September 22, 2024, Short Hills, New Jersey – Avina Clean Hydrogen is thrilled to announce that it has received the industrial new construction permit to proceed with the construction of its integrated hydrogen production and refueling facility in Southern California. Once operational, the facility will produce 1,400 metric tons of compressed clean hydrogen per annum, enough to fuel nearly 100 fuel cell heavy-duty trucks and buses daily. With on-site dispensing systems, the facility will eliminate the logistical challenges that currently inflate hydrogen costs.

“By enabling on-site hydrogen production and refueling, our plant aims to provide the most cost-effective clean hydrogen solution for fleet operators looking to decarbonize their medium- and heavy-duty vehicles in Southern California,” said Vishal Shah, Founder & CEO of Avina Clean Hydrogen Inc.

By driving innovation in hydrogen production and infrastructure, this project not only strengthens California’s leadership in the green economy but also supports the state’s ambitious climate goals. Well-to-wheel emission savings enabled by this project are estimated to be nearly 40,000 tons of CO2 per year. With on-site hydrogen production and dispensing, the plant can produce lower-cost hydrogen by eliminating transportation logistics, making clean hydrogen more affordable for fleet operators. The plant’s scalable design ensures future growth to meet increasing hydrogen demand while advancing the infrastructure needed for widespread hydrogen adoption in the United States.
