HB228 has the potential to create jobs, spur growth, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Leadership by New Mexico can spur clean energy investment opportunities and position the state to take advantage of up to $8B of federal funding.
A Hydrogen Hub could provide economic opportunities and growth in clean energy. Escalante project alone will generate over 500 construction jobs and 60+ permanent jobs.
An energy mix is critical for New Mexico to move toward a carbon-free future and Hydrogen has the potential to play a significant role in reaching that target. It is another technology to move the needle toward a zero-carbon future.
I urge you to support House Bill 228!
