EPC

What EPC does

EPC, formally Engineering, Procurement and Construction, LLC, is a privately held Wyoming LLC founded in 2003 by John Cornish and headquartered in a 30,000-square-foot fabrication facility in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The company operates as an unbiased hydrogen infrastructure system integrator, designing, fabricating, and maintaining hydrogen generation, compression, storage, and dispensing systems for enterprise, government, transit, and research customers. EPC's core technology is containerized, modular hydrogen system packaging — products range from 4x4x6 high-pressure storage packages to 8x8x8 electrolyzer home refuelers, skid-mounted reformers, and 40-foot containers with ammonia production systems — all shop-installed, tested to ASME and NFPA 2 standards, and shipped as drop-and-play units for rapid deployment via truck or rail. The company emphasizes intermodal transportability and integrated remote-monitoring capabilities, and claims to have completed over 120 unique hydrogen generation or delivery projects across fueling stations, fuel cell systems, and pipelines since inception.

EPC's business model combines professional engineering services, hardware fabrication, and ongoing managed O&M services, sold on a project-based, custom-quoted basis under multi-year contracts to a diverse enterprise and public-sector customer base. Named end customers and partners include Walmart, Coca-Cola, Procter & Gamble, Kroger (material handling); Air Liquide, Air Products, Linde/Praxair, Williams (industrial gas and energy infrastructure); Chevron, BP, Xcel Energy, SDG&E (energy); the DOE, Los Alamos National Laboratory, NREL, and the California Air Quality Management Districts (government and research); and AC Transit, Cal State LA, and the University of Wyoming (transit and education). Revenue is generated through one-time turn-key hydrogen infrastructure projects, equipment fabrication, and recurring operations and maintenance contracts.

EPC's go-to-market is sales-led enterprise field engagement, often via federal funding opportunities and as a design-build subcontractor or partner on DOE and DOT programs — most recently on an $8.9M DOT-funded Colorado I-25 corridor fueling-station project with New Day Hydrogen and Colorado State University, and on a $10M DOE-funded hydrogen production demonstration with the University of Wyoming, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Williams. The company has announced an aggressive headcount ramp from fewer than 10 employees in early 2022 to a planned 100+ by 2025, anchored to expected federal hydrogen demand, and operates with no disclosed external institutional capital and no equity ties to component manufacturers.

Core offering

EPC is a hydrogen infrastructure system integrator that delivers turn-key hydrogen solutions including engineering design, permitting, fabrication of containerized hydrogen systems, construction management, and ongoing operations and maintenance. The company integrates hydrogen generation, compression, storage, and dispensing components into modular containerized packages for fueling stations, material handling equipment, power generation, and pipeline applications.

Product overview

EPC is a hydrogen infrastructure system integrator offering turn-key solutions through three interconnected service pillars: Engineering/Permitting/Construction Management, Fabrication, and Operations/Maintenance. The core product is containerized hydrogen solutions that integrate hydrogen generation, compression, storage, and dispensing into portable modular packages ranging from compact 4x4x6 storage units to 40-foot containers with ammonia production. The company manufactures hydrogen refueling stations for light-duty vehicles (700 bar), heavy-duty/transit vehicles (350 bar), and material handling equipment. All solutions meet ASME and NFPA 2 standards with third-party certification.

Broad incumbents

• Air Liquide: Global industrial gas major with significant hydrogen production and mobility infrastructure operations. Like Linde, an EPC customer today and a broad incumbent that could in-source modular station design-build work.
• Iwatani Corporation: Japanese industrial gas and hydrogen energy company that designs, builds, and operates hydrogen refueling stations globally. Competes with EPC in turn-key station EPC and is a leading operator in the U.S. California market.
• Shell Hydrogen: Energy major's hydrogen business spanning production, refueling, and mobility. Operates hydrogen stations in select markets and represents a broad incumbent with the capital to scale modular infrastructure independently of EPC.
• Linde plc: Global industrial gas major with hydrogen production, distribution, and retail fueling operations. A customer of EPC today but a broad incumbent whose vertical integration could compress EPC's integrator role at scale.

Direct peers

• Plug Power: U.S. hydrogen fuel cell and fueling solutions provider targeting material handling, transit, and stationary power. Overlaps with EPC's MHE, transit, and hydrogen generation customer segments with turn-key fuel cell and infrastructure offerings.
• Nel ASA: Norwegian hydrogen electrolyzer and fueling station manufacturer. Directly comparable to EPC as a hydrogen system provider serving fueling, generation, and industrial applications; both deliver integrated H2 packages to enterprise and government customers.
• ITM Power: UK-based PEM electrolyzer and integrated hydrogen refueling systems supplier. Comparable to EPC's electrolyzer-based generation and modular refueling station offerings for industrial and mobility customers.
• FirstElement Fuel: Operator and developer of retail hydrogen refueling stations in California, with turn-key station design, build, and operations. Directly comparable to EPC's 700-bar light-duty fueling station offerings and O&M service line.
