HOUSTON -- Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is working with U.S.-based Bakken Energy on what is set to be one of North America's largest clean hydrogen projects, aiming to produce more than 300,000 tons of the fuel per year.
An existing chemical plant in North Dakota will be repurposed to extract hydrogen from natural gas. It will capture and store carbon dioxide emitted in the process, with plans to sequester 6 million tons per year, equivalent to annual emissions from 2.6 million passenger vehicles.
