  • CF Industries

Industry Highlights:

  • The Sarnia-Lambton area is Ontario’s largest cluster of current and potential hydrogen producers and users, with unique competitive advantages, positioning the region to become Ontario’s leading producer, user, and exporter of low-carbon hydrogen, and hydrogen technologies and services.
  • The Sarnia-Lambton hub has the capabilities to work with stakeholders to drive hydrogen production, research, piloting and demonstration, training, and deployment via the “Commercialization Hub” process.
  • The Sarnia-Lambton area presents Ontario’s most immediate opportunity to leverage existing grey hydrogen production with immediate, short-term, and long-term local opportunities associated with blue and green hydrogen production, fuels cells, hydrogen storage, and hydrogen blending.
