Constellation Energy (NASDAQ:CEG) said Tuesday that hydrogen production has started at the first U.S. 1 MW demonstration scale, nuclear powered clean hydrogen production facility at its Nine Mile Point Nuclear Plant in New York.
Constellation (CEG) said the advancement will help demonstrate the potential for hydrogen to power a clean economy.
Constellation (CEG) said the clean Hydrogen Generation System operating at Nine Mile Point uses 1.25 MW/hour of zero-carbon energy to produce 560 kg/day of clean hydrogen, more than enough to meet the plantâs operational hydrogen use, and help set the stage for possible large-scale deployments at other clean energy centers in the company's fleet.
Last year, the U.S. Department of Energy approved moving forward with construction and installation of an electrolyzer system at Nine Mile Point with a $5.8M award.
Constellation Energy (CEG) has "gone unnoticed and is underfollowed," but tax credits provide a floor to earnings and make the company's cash flows predictable, More Ideas Than Money writes in an analysis newly posted on Seeking Alpha.
