Hey fellow impactful ninja ?
You may have noticed that Impactful Ninja is all about providing helpful information to make a positive impact on the world and society. And that we love to link back to where we found all the information for each of our posts.
Most of these links are informational-based for you to check out their primary sources with one click.
But some of these links are so-called "affiliate links" to products that we recommend.
Why do we add these product links?
First and foremost, because we believe that they add value to you. For example, when we wrote a post about the environmental impact of long showers, we came across an EPA recommendation to use WaterSense showerheads. So we linked to where you can find them. Or, for many of our posts, we also link to our favorite books on that topic so that you can get a much more holistic overview than one single blog post could provide.
And when there is an affiliate program for these products, we sign up for it. For example, as Amazon Associates, we earn from qualifying purchases.
What do these affiliate links mean for you?
First, and most importantly, we still only recommend products that we believe add value for you.
When you buy something through one of our affiliate links, we may earn a small commission - but at no additional costs to you.
And when you buy something through a link that is not an affiliate link, we won’t receive any commission but we’ll still be happy to have helped you.
What do these affiliate links mean for us?
When we find products that we believe add value to you and the seller has an affiliate program, we sign up for it.
When you buy something through one of our affiliate links, we may earn a small commission (at no extra costs to you).
And at this point in time, all money is reinvested in sharing the most helpful content with you. This includes all operating costs for running this site and the content creation itself.
What does this mean for me personally?
You may have noticed by the way Impactful Ninja is operated that money is not the driving factor behind it. It is a passion project of mine and I love to share helpful information with you to make a positive impact on the world and society. However, it's a project in that I invest a lot of time and also quite some money.
Eventually, my dream is to one day turn this passion project into my full-time job and provide even more helpful information. But that's still a long time to go.
Stay impactful,

📰 The quick summary: Air Liquide’s Nevada facility now produces 30 tons of liquid hydrogen daily, making it the world’s largest such plant and significantly advancing clean energy infrastructure in the US.
📈 One key stat: The facility can produce enough hydrogen to fuel over 40,000 hydrogen-powered vehicles in California alone, helping meet the state’s clean energy targets.
💬 One key quote: “The North Las Vegas plant is a model of both economic and technological development.”
1️⃣ The big picture: Air Liquide has launched the world’s largest liquid hydrogen production facility in North Las Vegas, Nevada. This groundbreaking plant can produce up to 30 tons of liquid hydrogen daily, which gets stored at ultra-low temperatures for various applications including fuel cell vehicles and industrial processes. The facility stands out by using renewable electricity and natural gas for production, making it significantly cleaner than traditional hydrogen sources. With this plant online, America gains a massive boost to its clean energy infrastructure that can support tens of thousands of hydrogen-powered vehicles.
2️⃣ Why is this good news: The facility creates a reliable supply of clean hydrogen that can fuel over 40,000 vehicles in California alone, directly supporting the state’s low carbon fuel standards. Beyond environmental benefits, the $250 million investment generated approximately 700 construction jobs and maintains 25 permanent positions. The plant serves as a catalyst for regional economic revitalization as companies move to the area to benefit from this new energy ecosystem. By combining multiple clean hydrogen production methods including electrolysis with renewable energy and carbon capture technologies, the facility sets a global benchmark for sustainable hydrogen production at industrial scale.
3️⃣ What’s next: The North Las Vegas hydrogen plant will continue meeting growing demand for sustainable energy solutions across the region. Its logistics infrastructure enables reliable distribution of liquid hydrogen to various markets. The facility’s success may inspire similar projects worldwide as more countries seek industrial-scale clean hydrogen production capabilities.
