It is our pleasure to announce the launch of the Hydrogen Engine Alliance of North America (H2EA-NA), a groundbreaking initiative to advance hydrogen as a low-carbon fuel for internal combustion engines (ICEs) and drive the transition to a domestic, energy-secure, low-carbon transportation future.

Hydrogen holds remarkable promise as a low-carbon, domestically sourced fuel capable of transforming transportation across diverse sectors. However, achieving this vision requires a coordinated, industry-wide effort. The Hydrogen Engine Alliance addresses this critical need by fostering collaboration, driving technological innovation, and advocating for hydrogen’s role in shaping the future of mobility systems.

Why the Hydrogen Engine Alliance Matters

The Hydrogen Engine Alliance serves as the foundation of North America’s hydrogen ICE ecosystem. It provides a platform for collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and impactful action. Together, we aim to accelerate hydrogen ICE technology from research and development to deployment, enabling the hydrogen economy to thrive.

Key Objectives of the Alliance

Promoting Hydrogen ICE Solutions: We advocate for hydrogen-powered internal combustion engines as a crucial pillar of hydrogen infrastructure, advancing U.S. competitiveness and achieving low-carbon mobility.

Fostering Collaboration and Engagement: The Alliance connects leaders from the automotive, energy, and government sectors, creating a space to collaborate on advancing technology, policy, and infrastructure.

Education and Outreach: Raising public awareness and enhancing stakeholder understanding of hydrogen solutions are central to driving adoption and building a robust hydrogen economy.
