Governor Josh Shapiro announced a $4.6 million investment into clean energy, writes the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development.
Specifically, the investment will aid PMF Industries, the 63-year-old Pennsylvania company, expand into the clean hydrogen market. The $7 million project will create 20 new full-time jobs, retain 78 positions, and strengthen Pennylvania’s clean energy sector.
PMF Industries will build a 16,000-square-foot addition to its Williamsport facility, housing new equipment for producing metallic liners to safely store and transport hydrogen. This expansion aligns with Governor Shapiro’s commitment to bolstering clean energy manufacturing and economic development across the state.
“Pennsylvania is the best place in the country for businesses to grow and thrive, and my Administration is committed to making strategic investments that strengthen our key industries and create good-paying jobs,” said Shapiro.
The state’s Department of Community and Economic Development provided PMF Industries with a $4.5 million PIDA loan, $138,000 Pennsylvania First grant, and $11,000 for workforce training through WEDnetPA.
PMF President John Perrotto praised the Shapiro Administration for their commitment to supporting small and mid-sized companies.
The administration’s focus on clean energy and manufacturing underscores Pennsylvania’s role as a national leader in innovation and sustainability.
