Potential applicants to the Hydrogen Innovation Fund (HIF) will be able to access the final program documents starting tomorrow, March 31.

With a total budget of $15 million over three years, the goal of the HIF is to investigate, evaluate and demonstrate how low-carbon hydrogen technologies can be integrated into Ontario’s electricity grid for the purposes of balancing and strengthening our reliable electricity system.

In response to stakeholder feedback, project timelines have been revised to the following:

  • Existing facilities: June 30, 2024
  • Feasibility studies: June 30, 2024
  • New facilities: December 31, 2025
Applications will be accepted from April 3 until May 5, 2023. Documents required for the submission can be found through the dedicated HIF web page to be published tomorrow in the Innovation section of the website. If you have any questions, please send an email to HydrogenInnovationFund@ieso.ca.
