The European Parliament compromise on car CO2 standards includes a credit of up to 7.5% for EU made low-carbon steel, and Eurofer wants it kept.
BESS thermal runaway behaves very differently once flames appear, according to a Journal of Energy Storage paper that ran two full scale cabinet tests under identical triggering conditions, one that flamed and one that did not. The work went online on 20 October 2026 in volume 183 (DOI 10.1016/j.est.2026.125130) and measured temperature, radiant heat flux, heat release rate, total heat release, gas concentrations and flame evolution. BESS thermal runaway without flames In the non flaming test only four cells went into thermal runaway, and the event stayed localised along a single propagation chain. The cabinet absorbed the failure without the…
HyTEGAM, a new agent based model of a tradable hydrogen market, shows the modelled hydrogen price falling from €5.30 to €2.88 per kilogram as the market moves from pilot to maturity, according to a paper in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. The study, by Jawaria Bint Faheem and James G. Carton, went online on 19 October 2026 as part of volume 285 (DOI 10.1016/j.ijhydene.2026.157812). The figures are model outputs, not observed market prices. How the HyTEGAM model is built HyTEGAM represents six autonomous market agents plus a non strategic hydrogen infrastructure operator, which the authors call the HIO. The…
Statnett’s long-term market analysis to 2060, published 19 October 2026, projects Norwegian consumption growth of 20 to 80 TWh, down from 50 to 120 TWh.
A San Nicolas Island study puts wind hydrogen storage at $0.183/kWh and an LFP battery system at $0.229/kWh.
A two layer controller for a hydrogen turbojet and its supply system cuts cumulative NOx by 24.2% at a 4.47% fuel penalty, in simulation.
Zero Waste Scotland’s circular economy roadmap for the built environment lists 12 interventions for a sector that makes up about half of Scotland’s waste, but a promotional podcast feature about it gives no figures for the savings it claims.
A study of a 30 MW wind hydrogen project in Ireland puts annual value added at €71.2 million or €81.3 million depending on the value chain, yet the end use prices in its tables imply hydrogen sales of only €30 million to €38.5 million, and the GDP figures differ between abstract and text.
Chinese state media say the hydrogen industry is moving from pilots to scale, yet Baotou’s 7,800 tonne green hydrogen project is 0.02 percent of the 39 million tonnes China produced in 2025, and Inner Mongolia’s 12,694 tonnes is 0.03 percent.
The average daily gap between the highest and lowest priced hours in the UK rose 80 percent to about £123 per MWh in September, as Europe’s roughly $40 billion battery fleet heads into a winter that will test whether more batteries mean less per battery.
