OneH2, a leader in sustainable hydrogen solutions, announced it is expanding its U.S. footprint by establishing the company’s first South Carolina operation in York County. The $16 million investment will create 87 new jobs by 2026.
With a presence in California, Michigan, Ohio and North Carolina, the company aims to establish a nationwide hydrogen infrastructure network that will make transitioning to hydrogen fuel easier and more economical for business owners and industrial operations.
“We are thrilled to continue our expansion with the purchase of the Clover, SC facility,” OneH2 Vice President of Product Swapnil Revankar said. “Our existing manufacturing facility in North Carolina is already operating at maximum. By opening this new facility, we will be able to scale our production and grow our hydrogen equipment footprint across the U.S. at a rapid pace.”
OneH2 purchased a 246,091-square-foot building in Clover which will be used for warehousing and manufacturing hydrogen fuel equipment. Operations will be online in stages, starting in the first quarter of 2024. The final stage will be completed in 2025 with the full workforce.
“We welcome OneH2 to York County and look forward to their $16 million investment in our community and for bringing 87 new jobs for our residents,” York County Council Chairwoman Christi Cox said. “This expansion into S.C. signals a boost to our local economy and underscores York County’s appeal for innovative businesses. We look forward to OneH2 establishing its South Carolina operation and their contributions to our local growth and prosperity.”
Created in 2015 and headquartered in Longview, North Carolina, OneH2 designs and manufactures innovative products ranging from hydrogen production plants and distribution equipment to vehicle powertrains and fuel systems. Its products provide the North American industrial vehicles market with cost-effective power solutions.
“By providing the North American industrial vehicles market with cost-effective power solutions, OneH2 is helping businesses reduce their carbon footprint,” Secretary of Commerce Harry M. Lightsey III said. “We welcome this innovative company to South Carolina and look forward to supporting its work toward a zero-emissions future.”
