Sen. John Cornyn visits Port of Corpus Christi to promote hydrogen infrastructure bills
U.S. Sen. John Cornyn visited the Port of Corpus Christi this week to discuss legislation he co-authored that could incentivize the expansion of the hydrogen industry in Corpus Christi.
The Hydrogen Infrastructure Initiative, introduced last fall and sponsored by Texas' Republican senior senator and U.S. Sen. Chris Coons, D-Delaware, is composed of three bills targeting maritime, heavy industry and infrastructure applications.
The draft legislation states it would create programs to provide grants and low-cost supplemental loans to support hydrogen transport infrastructure, including storage and delivery means such as pipelines, shipping, rail, refueling or other infrastructure.
Cornyn, speaking during a roundtable discussion Wednesday with the port’s chief executive, Sean Strawbridge, and industry leaders, said hydrogen could take a larger role as a potential fuel source in the coming years and further diversify Texas’ energy capabilities.
