At MORPC’s Securing Our Energy Future series, Trillium H2 Power VP Caitlin Holley highlighted our role in building an abundant, reliable energy future that’s driven by innovation and unlocking the promise of hydrogen.
Trillium appreciates the opportunity to attend the OMA Energy Conference on September 18th in central Ohio - the gathering was an informative, engaging dialogue, where manufacturers, policymakers, and energy leaders tackled tough topics on Ohio’s energy future. There is no doubt that The Ohio Manufacturers' Association pulls in the top experts in all things Ohio energy.
Discussions on recent Ohio state-wide energy reforms, rising transmission costs, on-site solutions, and the role of data centers reinforced the importance of competitive markets and innovation to keep Ohio a leader in advanced manufacturing and digital infrastructure.
For Trillium H₂ Power, the message is clear: resilient, market-driven energy hubs like we are developing at PORTS, will power growth in Ohio's Energy and Advanced Manufacturing landscape for decades to come.
