Calgary poised to join hydrogen sector with new energy hub

Zak Cunningham, CRH2 lead, says the head office for the hub will be located in downtown Calgary but work will be happening in and around the city.

“A hub is much broader than [a physical location]. It’s really just connecting the dots between and within the city of Calgary and the region more broadly,” he said.

“So, the activities of the hub kind of span all over the place within the region and they encompass the whole value chain.”

Cunningham said another component of CRH2 will be to connect with Edmonton’s hub by creating a corridor between the two.

“You start with the hub approach, developing some demand, aggregating demand within a region and then you want to connect that to another hub, right? And that’s where a corridor approach comes in.”
