About Us
In 2003, President George W. Bush initiated an ambitious national agenda for a hydrogen energy future. In Florida, Governor Jeb Bush has amplified that national agenda as a key strategy for diversifying the state’s economy while protecting our unique quality of life. Florida’s research and business communities – with their long and successful history of hydrogen research, development and technology deployment – are now poised to lead the nation in fulfilling the President’s vision. The mission of the Florida Hydrogen Initiative is to move Florida to the forefront of the nation’s hydrogen economy.
The Florida Hydrogen Initiative, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on February 9, 2004 as a not-for-profit corporation with the following charter:
“This Corporation is organized and operated exclusively to develop through comprehensive research, demonstration programs and educational programs, a fuel to eventually replace our current fossil-based transportation fuels; for research to produce, store and use hydrogen for both space and Earth applications; to research and develop and establish a technology transfer program for public and industry use; to enhance Florida’s economy by creating, building and strengthening high-growth potential, high technology companies.”
