WASHINGTON - The Department of Energy on Friday canceled $3.7 billion in funding for clean energy and greenhouse gas reduction-related projects awarded in the last weeks of the Biden administration. Among the projects losing their grants were an ExxonMobil hydrogen project in Texas and several carbon capture projects located throughout the United States.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright says he canceled $3.7 billion in project grants in another massive hit to clean energy development in the U.S. under President Donald Trump's administration.

The company’s Holland plant was originally expected to receive $13 million for sustainability upgrades as part of Biden administration program now terminated by Trump officials.
