SAN ANTONIO — December 15, 2025 — Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has received $1.75 million in funding from the ENERGYWERX program to support a set of hydrogen-related projects. The eight projects focus on testing components for the hydrogen industry to improve energy infrastructure and support the use of this clean-burning fuel.
The ENERGYWERX program strives to increase cooperative research activities between the DOE and nonprofits, private companies, utilities, localities and other organizations by accelerating the development of clean energy technologies and solutions.
Eight SwRI projects have been funded by the program:
Many of the projects will be conducted in SwRI’s Metering Research Facility, a world-class, high-accuracy, high-technology flow measurement facility that simulates actual field conditions. SwRI scientists and engineers across multiple disciplines are working together to prepare for a future hydrogen economy. The ENERGYWERX projects are underway and are expected to be completed by the end of 2026.
