Georgia Power Completes Largest Hydrogen Fuel Test of Its Kind in the World to Date

  • Georgia Power and Mitsubishi Power conducted a demonstration at the McDonough-Atkinson facility in Smyrna using a fuel mixture composed of equal parts hydrogen and natural gas, achieving a 22% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions.
  • This landmark test builds on earlier blending trials since 2022 and supports Georgia Power's 2025 Integrated Resource Plan to add three hydrogen-capable turbines at Plant Yates in Coweta County.
  • Mitsubishi Power provided full turnkey services including engineering and hydrogen supply logistics in partnership with Certarus, with Southern Company's R&D serving as technical consultants on low-carbon hydrogen innovations.
  • Rick Anderson stated natural gas remains critical for flexibility and baseload power, while Mark Bissonnette called the project a “significant milestone” aiding reductions across Georgia Power's generation fleet.
  • The successful test validates hydrogen blending viability in power generation, indicating potential for future energy diversification despite opposition from environmental groups to continued natural gas and coal use in the IRP.
