Duke Energy displays new clean hydrogen facility on Florida's east coast

Duke Energy Florida unveiled a new production storage system in Volusia County this month that is the nation’s first demonstrated project that’s capable of handling 100% green hydrogen. Duke officials were on hand for the demonstration in DeBary at the company’s solar site for an explanatory showcase of two “electrolyzer units.” Those are devices that separate water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen atoms, according to a company news release. O…

Duke Energy Florida Launches First 100% U.S. Green Hydrogen Power System

Duke Energy Florida has launched a new clean energy system that is the first of its kind in the United States. The system can produce, store, and burn 100% green hydrogen fuel at a commercial power plant. The project is called the DeBary Hydrogen Production Storage System. It uses solar power to make hydrogen, stores the fuel, and sends it to a combustion turbine to produce electricity. This project marks an important step in using renewable hyd…

H2-View News: US’s ‘first’ green hydrogen production, storage and combustion system comes online

The DeBary production storage system, located in Volusia County, Florida, uses an existing 74.5MW solar plant to power two 1MW electrolyser units, producing hydrogen stored on-site for use in a combustion turbine. By converting excess daytime solar power into hydrogen and storing it for later use, the system allows renewable energy to be dispatched when it is most needed, rather than when it is generated. During periods of peak electricity deman…
