Cetim, a Carnot-accredited technological institute, establishes Hymeet, a materials engineering and testing laboratory, to provide knowledge in the field of hydrogen to the French mechanical sector. At every stage of the hydrogen value chain, the mechanical engineering sector is involved. However, to assure its manufacture, distribution, and use in a variety of applications, it is required to modify items, particularly fluidic equipment; pipes, compressors, pumps, regulators, and tanks of diverse sizes, materials, and environments. HyMEET, an acronym for Hydrogen Material and Equipment Engineering and Testing Center, is the initial component of a four-year strategy. The €25 million investment aims to…
Wind power can be a cheaper alternative to selling power on the stock exchange for Ü20 plants. A idea that makes methane from hydrogen and carbon dioxide from biogas production shows this. Wind millers may prefer producing hydrogen to selling power on the exchange. True at least during “average” electricity pricing times. Two institutions have created an idea that uses biogas plant carbon dioxide. The two universities are Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg (BTU) and Flensburg University of Applied Sciences (FSU). A power-to-gas concept for a renewable energy station in Nordhackstedt, Schleswig-Holstein, was engaged. The idea is to keep two…
Elliott Group has developed a new, reconfigurable compressor configuration for hydrogen applications. The Flex-Op® compressor configuration enhances reliability and accessibility to the rotating components, and leverages Elliott’s over 70 years of proven hydrogen compression experience. “Hydrogen compression requires a large number of compression stages to achieve a reasonable head for a very light gas,” said Dr. Klaus Brun, Elliott’s Director of Research and Development. “With the Flex-Op arrangement of three to four casings, up to 40 impeller stages can fit into a footprint that traditionally only fit up to 10 stages. This shrinks the linear footprint of the compressor section…
Iberdrola’s green hydrogen generation facility in Puertollano (Ciudad Real) will commence commercial operation in March. This was confirmed by Julio Castro, CEO of Iberdrola Renewable Energy, during the EL ESPAOL, Invertia, and El Digital de Castilla-La Mancha-organized I Castilla-La Mancha Economic Forum: Achievements and Challenges. “In Castilla-La Mancha, great opportunities open up with the development of renewables. It is the region with the most possibilities due to several factors, the first due to the wind and solar resources, which are very good, and second, because it is a very large territory , and that is compatible with the agro-livestock industry”.…
Developing a “green” hydrogen economy, according to one expert, might result in the creation of up to 50,000 new employment provided the government develops an appropriate strategy for the fuel. Numerous European Union member states have published programs for producing green hydrogen for use in heavy transport, industry, large-scale heating, and energy generation. Dr James Carton, associate professor of sustainable energy at Dublin City University, cautioned over the weekend that the Republic risks missing an opportunity if the Government does not soon disclose its policy. He observed that a green hydrogen sector could employ five times as many people as…
According to Economics Minister Robert Habeck, the demand for hydrogen as an energy source will increase rapidly. He sees politics as having a duty to create a legal basis – and to support it financially.
It is calculated that 1.9 million tons of green hydrogen demand can be generated in 2050 by replacing 10 percent of fossil fuels with green hydrogen in the manufacturing industry, natural gas and transportation sectors in Turkey.
SEA, the corporation responsible for the management of Milano Linate and Milano Malpensa airports, and Airbus, the world leader in the aeronautical and aerospace industries, have signed a “Memorandum of Understanding” to explore and implement hydrogen distribution projects at Milan’s airports. Around 2035, Airbus expects to manufacture the first hydrogen-powered aircraft. This implies that airports should improve their “readiness” and ensure that they have the infrastructure necessary to provide hydrogen to the new aircraft. Milan’s airports have risen to the occasion and will set the standard for Europe’s new generation of planes. The two companies intend to pool their resources…
According to the provincial president, an application has been submitted for the building of a public access route to Lago Escondido, which is now under the authority of businessman Joe Lewis’ private security.
At the location, according to the company, it will manufacture totally green hydrogen through electrolysis driven by solar energy, which will be utilized as a fuel for future hydrogen trains on the Polish railway system.
