The Arbikie Highland Estate Distillery near Montrose is one step closer to becoming net zero thanks to a £3 million government grant awarded to UK renewable energy company Locogen in collaboration with hydrogen technology specialist Logan Energy. Phase 2 funding is provided by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) through its Green Distilleries Competition. This will include the duo collaborating with Arbikie to install an on-site wind turbine and electrolyser that will generate green hydrogen – in place of the harmful oil now used to generate steam for the distillation process. The Green Distilleries Competition aims to…
LAVO welcomed the Queensland Government’s “Invest in Queensland” program’s funding announcement today to enable the construction of their hydrogen fuel cell technology manufacturing facility in Springfield, QLD. Nedstack Australia Pty Ltd, a joint venture between LAVO Hydrogen Storage Technology Pty Ltd and Nedstack of the Netherlands, will create the project, which is scheduled to begin construction in 2022. The joint venture will begin by manufacturing proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell technology for use in LAVO’s revolutionary Hydrogen Energy Storage System (HESS). The factory will expand to manufacture a variety of fuel cells in order to meet the expanding domestic and…
INOVYN has announced a collaboration with the Netherlands-based VT Group (Verenigde Tankrederij) to develop Europe’s first hydrogen-powered bulk liquid chemical barge. This is part of INOVYN’s ongoing goal to produce green hydrogen and to eventually phase out carbon-based energy, feedstocks, and fuel sources. The hydrogen-powered barge will transport INOVYN’s critical raw materials between its Antwerp and Jemeppe, Belgium, locations. INOVYN will supply the low carbon hydrogen required to power the barge as a byproduct of its chemical manufacturing operations. VT Group will refit an existing barge with hydrogen technology, which will replace the existing gasoil combustion system. This will result…
It was stressed that the development of hydrogen energy in Russia is critical for both local industrial decarbonization and exports to the global hydrogen market.
Various infrastructures are being built, including a hydrogen gas safety experience training center, a hydrogen bus parts test and evaluation center, the Eumseong industry-university convergence district
As part of a pilot project, DHL is testing the use of hydrogen-powered trucks. The transport service provider was able to win the computer company Apple as its first customer.
Moon Jae-in recently stressed the importance of hydrogen energy development, saying, “Korea is particularly focused on the hydrogen economy and is leading the way in the field of hydrogen usage.”
Permits for a 25 MW Green Hydrogen Plant in the Netherlands’ North Sea Port of Terneuzen have been given to Vision Hydrogen Corporation. VoltH2, a subsidiary of Vision Hydrogen, has reached a significant developmental milestone in conjunction with Virya Energy toward the establishment of a 25 MW green hydrogen production facility with tube-trailer loading and integrated distribution. This scalable infrastructure enables the cooperation to increase the Site’s production capacity to 75 MW. The facility will generate up to 3.5 million kilograms of green hydrogen per year with a capacity of 25 MW and up to 10.5 million kilograms of hydrogen…
By depending on green hydrogen and renewable energy sources, the UAE is aiming to minimize carbon emissions. It published a strategy for growing the hydrogen field on Thursday as part of a goal to boost low-carbon indigenous enterprises and help the country reach climate ne
“Now it is up to The Hague to take action.” “The cabinet, as far as I’m concerned, will begin before Christmas,” says FNV director Cihan Lacin. Greening plans in IJmuiden, he claims, cannot be implemented without government assistance. This includes things like securing subsidies and the appropriate permissions, as well as infrastructure building.
