- CNX's commitment to supporting the Appalachian Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub (ARCH2) demonstrates its dedication to clean energy initiatives.
- The company's evaluation of alternative sites in southern West Virginia shows its proactive approach to finding viable locations for clean hydrogen projects.
- CNX's call on the federal government to heed the advice of elected officials, organized labor, and stakeholders demonstrates its advocacy for rules that support the hydrogen economy.
- Delays and uncertainty over the implementation rules guiding the use of the 45V hydrogen production tax credit provisions have led to CNX ending coordination with the Adams Fork project, potentially impacting the company's timeline for clean hydrogen projects.
- The company's inability to reach final commercial terms with project developers may pose challenges to the successful implementation of clean hydrogen projects in the future.
The Company remains committed to supporting the Appalachian Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub (ARCH2) via use of its local, low cost, low carbon intensity feedstock, which is ideal for affordable, clean hydrogen production in historically disadvantaged energy communities across Appalachia. CNX's final investment decision remains contingent upon tax credit guidance that unambiguously supports low carbon intensity feedstock projects that will facilitate development of the regional clean hydrogen hubs, including ARCH2.
CNX calls on the federal government to heed the advice of elected officials, organized labor, and stakeholders across the country who have advocated for rules that would catalyze, not stifle, the burgeoning hydrogen economy.
The ARCH2 hydrogen hub brings together private industry, state and local government, academic and technology institutions, NGOs, and community organizations across the Northern Appalachian region including West
