Two hydrogen production projects in Texas plan to add a total of 8 gigawatts of local wind and solar power, both to run their own operations and help support the state’s strained electrical grid.

Both projects would use electricity to strip hydrogen from water, considered one of the cleanest ways to produce the fuel.
