The FEED study centers around the EPC supply and installation of Siemens Energy proprietary Silyzer 300 electrolyzers line. This is planned to allow the Pecos County project to produce up to 50 tons per day of green hydrogen as one of the first in class hydrogen projects in the United States.. This complex is designed to implement up to 175 megawatts of solar power to power the facility.
