ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. A team of veteran energy developers is putting the building blocks in place to potentially convert San Juan County into a “hydrogen hub” to supply clean electricity to western utilities, plus non-carbon fuel for vehicles and industrial processes.
Libertad Power Project LLC says it could have its first hydrogen-fueled generating station up and running in the Farmington area by 2024 – far faster than any other commercial project currently under development in the U.S. And once operating, the power plant would provide the initial anchor for building out a broad production-and-storage center that could attract industrial partners to condense and liquify Libertad’s Made-in-New-Mexico hydrogen for transport to customers across the nation.

Technology to repurpose coal-fired plant to run on 100pc blue hydrogen
Two US companies have embarked on a project to repurpose a retired coal-fired power station in New Mexico to run on 100pc blue hydrogen, in what they say will be the first large-scale conversion of its type.
Technology firm Newpoint Gas and carbon sequestration specialist Brooks Energy aim to convert the 253MW Escalante power plant in Prewitt to run as a zero-emissions dispatchable baseload generator on blue hydrogen produced from natural gas via a methane reformer. A carbon capture facility at the site will remove the CO2 pre-combustion.
