initially uncertain whether the hydrogen industry was ready for an engineering, procurement, and construction firm. Early projects often served as proof of concept. Fortunately, as EPC gained traction, they became leaders in building hydrogen stations and systems, achieving more than any other firm globally. Their projects have extended beyond the U.S. to countries like China, India, and Germany, with a significant portion of early work focused in California, where supportive tax structures encouraged the development of a Hydrogen Highway. Today, EPC operates a 30,000 sq. ft. fabrication facility in Cheyenne, Wyoming, which enables them to efficiently manufacture and ship containerized hydrogen systems worldwide. This state-of-the-art facility is uniquely equipped with high-pressure tubing specialization and a rail spur for cost-effective shipping options. “We’re leading the charge on how to design, permit, and build hydrogen systems in enclosures,” John notes. The Cheyenne facility was built specifically to handle containerized systems, ranging from five-megawatt electrolyzers to one-ton-a-day reformers, underscoring EPC’s commitment to advancing hydrogen technology. John’s vision extends beyond simply providing products. “We don’t sell products; as an engineering, procurement, and construction firm, we integrate systems that do what our clients want them to do,” he explains. This ‘complete package’ approach enables EPC to deliver OEMJANUARY 2025
