South Carolina Supports Hydrogen Research
CHR is funded and operated entirely by Aiken County government.  The center belongs to the South Carolina Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Alliance.  The state of South Carolina, its major research universities, leading businesses and manufacturers are also members of the alliance.

In addition, South Carolina's Competitiveness Council has endorsed hydrogen as a business cluster worthy of significant funding and support - further demonstration of South Carolina's ongoing commitment to hydrogen research and the role it will play in the coming hydrogen economy.
