Problem
Many industries with high carbon emissions struggle to find affordable and scalable solutions for decarbonization. Traditional methods of hydrogen production can be costly and still rely on carbon-intensive processes, hindering widespread adoption of clean energy alternatives. A lack of readily available clean hydrogen infrastructure further impedes the transition to a zero-carbon economy.
Solution
Bakken Energy develops and operates clean hydrogen production facilities, leveraging low-cost hydrocarbon processing and feedstock production methods to generate affordable clean hydrogen. The company focuses on decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors by providing a direct replacement for CO2-producing fossil fuels. Bakken Energy is building a hydrogen hub, composed of facilities that produce, store, and transport clean hydrogen, connected by pipeline to other hydrogen hubs in North America. By partnering with natural gas suppliers like the MHA Nation and technology providers like Cummins, Bakken Energy aims to establish a reliable and cost-effective clean hydrogen supply chain.
Target Audience
Bakken Energy primarily targets industries with high carbon emissions seeking affordable and scalable decarbonization solutions, including heavy-duty trucking, fertilizer production, and power generation.
