Pittsburgh International Airport, CNX partner on hydrogen, LNG, CNG

In Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh International Airport and CNX Resources Corporation’s collaboration will utilize proprietary technology to convert on-site dry natural gas into liquified natural gas, compressed natural gas, and electricity for various uses including as a hydrogen feedstock – helping to create the “energy of the future” in the transportation industry.

Pittsburgh International Airport officials announced a new phase of their ongoing partnership with CNX Resources Corporation aimed at further reducing carbon emissions in the transportation industry and related sectors – by using natural gas produced at the airport and converted into alternative fuel with CNX proprietary technology.

The agreement comes on the heels of an announcement earlier this week from Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf about a statewide initiative to secure a hydrogen hub and large-scale carbon storage system in Pennsylvania, bringing further partnership opportunities to PIT.

The strategy also envisions a sustainable fuel hub at PIT utilizing locally sourced, lower-cost, lower-carbon intensity LNG and CNG fueling depots for airlines, transit, cargo, fleet, military, and other energy-intensive business purposes.
