Power For The People.
Clean. Local. Now.
H₂NY is a grassroots campaign working to bring clean, modular hydrogen energy to New York—one neighborhood at a time.
At h₂ny, we are dedicated to promoting clean, modular hydrogen energy solutions tailored for New York neighborhoods, ensuring that energy is community-owned, locally produced, and designed to benefit people over profit.
Mission
Vision
Picture neighborhoods powered by quiet, clean hydrogen microgrids—storing renewable energy and keeping the lights on through storms and grid failures. No smoke. No diesel. Just reliable, local energy.
What Is EDEN?
The tech behind the mission. EDEN is a compact, modular hydrogen energy system from Standard Hydrogen Corporation (SHC).
How It Works
Turns renewable electricity + water into hydrogen
Stores that hydrogen safely on-site
Converts hydrogen into clean electricity using fuel cells
Powers everything from shelters to EVs to entire neighborhoods
What Makes It Different
Modular and scalable
Zero emissions
Silent, no smoke
Made in NY
Already in use
Schools & community centers
Transit and public fleets
Emergency shelters
EV charging
Grid backup systems
Where It's Used
Why Now? Why New York?
New York is grappling with more frequent storms, rising energy costs, an aging and overstressed grid, and communities that are being left behind.
Proof It's Working
Hydrogen microgrids are already in motion, including Ithaca’s $41 million energy upgrade funded by NYSERDA.
Your City Could Be Next
Every community has the chance to lead. Let’s make your town the next clean energy success story.
The Opportunity
We have a rare window to act: federal and state funding is available now, hydrogen technology is ready for use, and New York is leading the way through NYSERDA, the DOE, and NY-BEST.
Funding & Support
How do we pay for this? You don't have to do it alone. Funding exists to help bring EDEN to your community.
Federal Support
DOE hydrogen Funding
CFI hydrogen infrastructure program
IRA tax credits for green hydrogen
State Support
NYSERDA hydrogen grants
