NEW YORK and OMAHA, Neb. and COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Oct. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As part of the agreement, Tenaska and CIP will develop greenfield gigawatt-scale green hydrogen projects, with the intent of serving local and global demand for green hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, sustainable aviation fuel and other clean fuels in key U.S. hydrogen markets.

Working with Tenaska, a strong counterparty with significant experience within energy management and project development, will significantly ramp up CI ETF I’s green hydrogen and renewable development capabilities in the U.S and will add to our strong global portfolio of Power-to-X projects.”
