Creating the next global energy breakthrough

MAKING A CHANGE

The future of our planet depends on a clean energy economy. The Center for Clean Hydrogen (CCH) at the University of Delaware is dedicated to accelerating industry’s adoption of hydrogen energy through research and development of innovative, affordable technologies along with entrepreneurship and workforce development to support this emerging sector.

Our Mission

CCH creates, builds, and nurtures clean hydrogen technologies through education, research, workforce development, entrepreneurship, and component testing at scale for organizations of all sizes. We envision a decarbonized energy future through affordable clean hydrogen at scale.

Why CCH?

Clean hydrogen is necessary for decarbonizing the global energy economy, but current clean hydrogen production methods are too expensive to allow for its widespread adoption. CCH is supporting innovation by making component testing at scale affordable and accessible.

Why Hydrogen?

When produced at scale, hydrogen can serve many applications of critical societal importance including transportation, stationary power, ammonia synthesis for fertilizer production, energy storage and conversion for gigawatt-scale data centers, and sustainable aviation fuels. Alongside clean electricity, clean hydrogen has the potential to significantly reduce global emissions. But this requires innovation—and it must start now.
