Hydrogen could soon be extracted from water in Lancaster County for use as carbon-free fuel, according to recently announced plans for a new production facility to be located in Martic Township.
Specifically, the green hydrogen production plant is proposed for land near the intersection of Old Holtwood and New Village roads, said Brent Koski, vice president of hydrogen energy at Plug Power, a New York-based fuel cell company.
The site is just east of the Susquehanna River, as well as the Holtwood Hydroelectric Dam, which is expected to provide renewable energy to power plant operations.

Green hydrogen from this facility will support decarbonization of the transportation and logistics industries in the Northeast and the mid-Atlantic. The plant will be located along the Susquehanna River in south-central Pennsylvania, U.S., and is expected to be online by late 2022, with construction slated to begin by in the first quarter of 2022.
Once operational, the plant is projected to produce about 15 metric-tons of liquid hydrogen per day. It is also expected to create more than 25 green energy jobs in Pennsylvania.
