The '''Hydrogen Shot''' is a Department of Energy initiative launched on June 7, 2021, as the first of eight Energy Earthshots, targeting an 80% cost reduction of clean hydrogen from approximately $5 per kilogram to $1 per kilogram within a decade, led by the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office (HFTO). Supporting over 40 projects by 2025—including $42 million for 22 R&D efforts in 2023 and $7 billion for Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs—it aims to quintuple U.S. hydrogen use from 10 million metric tons annually, with milestones like the H2Rescue truck’s 1,806-mile record in 2024 showcasing its impact.< | The '''Hydrogen Shot''' is a Department of Energy initiative launched on June 7, 2021, as the first of eight Energy Earthshots, targeting an 80% cost reduction of clean hydrogen from approximately $5 per kilogram to $1 per kilogram within a decade, led by the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office (HFTO).

The Hydrogen Shot is a Department of Energy initiative launched on June 7, 2021, as the first of eight Energy Earthshots, targeting an 80% cost reduction of clean hydrogen from approximately $5 per kilogram to $1 per kilogram within a decade, led by the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office (HFTO). Supporting over 40 projects by 2025—including $42 million for 22 R&D efforts in 2023 and $7 billion for Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs—it aims to quintuple U.S. hydrogen use from 10 million metric tons annually, with milestones like the H2Rescue truck’s 1,806-mile record in 2024 showcasing its impact.[1] Part of the Biden Administration’s net-zero goals, it drives advancements in electrolysis, thermal conversion, and infrastructure, bolstered by events like the 2021 Hydrogen Shot Summit.
Goals
- Achieve a clean hydrogen cost of $1 per kilogram by 2031, reducing it by 80% from 2021 levels.
- Expand hydrogen markets in steelmaking, ammonia, and heavy-duty transport for decarbonization.
- Create clean energy jobs and support regional hydrogen hubs through innovation.[2]
Organization
The Hydrogen Shot is spearheaded by HFTO within DOE’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), with Sunita Satyapal as Director coordinating efforts across DOE offices like Fossil Energy and Nuclear Energy. It leverages national labs (e.g., NREL, NETL) and industry partners via funding opportunities and fellowships, managed under EERE’s oversight.[3]
History
Announced by Secretary Jennifer Granholm at the 2021 Hydrogen Program Annual Merit Review, Hydrogen Shot emerged from DOE’s Energy Earthshots Initiative to address climate and cost barriers.[4] Early efforts included a 2021 RFI and $42 million in 2023 for R&D, with the 2023 Regional Hubs announcement ($7 billion) marking a scale-up phase. It continues to evolve, with 2024 reports on thermal conversion pathways shaping future R&D.
Funding
Initial funding in 2021 was not publicly detailed, sourced from HFTO budgets, with over $100 million committed by 2025—e.g., $42 million in 2023—plus $7 billion for hubs via the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.[5] Ongoing support targets a 10-year horizon, with no fixed end as it drives the 2031 goal.
Implementation
Hydrogen Shot advances through R&D funding, demonstrations (e.g., H2Rescue), and technology assessments—like the 2023 thermal conversion report—using platforms like EERE Exchange for awards.[6] It unfolds via phased investments (2021 RFI, 2023 hubs), aiming for completion by 2031 while adapting to clean energy needs.
