Episode: No green light for green ammonia? The market is down, but Bay St. George businesses still hope World Energy GH2 will still set up operations in the area
Description: Plans by World Energy GH2 to produce hydrogen in the Stephenville area are on hold. A statement from the company last week said, "The green ammonia market is not maturing at the rate expected." The company also says the market will dictate the timeline for its proposed project. That leaves the business community hoping that the company will continue with their plans for wind turbines, with other industries benefitting from the power. Debbie Brake-Patten is president of the Bay St. George Chamber of Commerce. She and Stephenville Mayor Tom Rose spoke with Radio-Canada's Patrick Butler.
