The prospect of Morocco’s green hydrogen and ammonia project gaining traction is closely linked to the country’s ambitious plan to harness its abundant wind and solar resources.

The global aviation industry’s relentless pursuit of decarbonization finds a new strategic ally with the partnership between AMSL Aero and Hycel, demonstrating promising advancements in hydrogen fuel cell technology.

Fabrum and Sumitomo have entered into a strategic collaboration targeting the burgeoning demand for liquid hydrogen within heavy transport and aviation sectors, sectors known for their significant carbon footprints and the urgent need for cleaner energy solutions.

A newly leaked draft from the European Commission, titled “The Clean Industrial Deal: A Joint Roadmap for Competitiveness and Decarbonisation,” has revealed a focused strategy on hydrogen within the broader initiative aimed at reducing carbon emissions and enhancing industrial competitiveness across Europe. This draft, which is part of a set of reforms scheduled for a phased rollout beginning in the first quarter of 2025, underscores the European Union’s commitment to integrating renewable energy solutions into its economic framework. The draft details a series of legislative and financial actions designed to accelerate the uptake of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen, regarded as…

Belgium is rapidly positioning itself in the green hydrogen market with significant investments in new plants and strategic partnerships aimed at reducing carbon emissions.

Vema Hydrogen has successfully closed a substantial $13 million seed funding round, aiming to produce natural hydrogen at a cost below $1 per kilogram—a price point that, until now, seemed almost as elusive as the mythical Philosopher’s Stone. This breakthrough centers around Vema’s proprietary technology, which leverages naturally occurring underground reactions to produce hydrogen. This method involves injecting a brine solution containing specific catalysts into geological formations. These formations, rich in iron-bearing minerals, react with the solution to efficiently yield hydrogen. This approach not only mitigates the geological risks typically associated with natural hydrogen extraction projects but also strategically places…

The smart grid sector has gained momentum, underscored by significant investment activities, such as Ionate’s recent $17 million funding round.

The drive for sustainable energy solutions is gaining traction globally, and South Wales is no exception. A significant stride was recently made toward establishing a small modular nuclear reactor (SMR) power plant in the region, reflecting broader trends in the nuclear energy sector.

TotalEnergies has signed agreements with Air Liquide to develop two green hydrogen projects in the Netherlands, aiming to produce and deliver approximately 45,000 tons of green hydrogen annually.

Argentina’s Energy Secretariat has issued a pivotal international call for proposals aimed at integrating 500 megawatts (MW) of battery energy storage systems (BESS) within the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires (AMBA). This bid aims to bolster the country’s reliability of electricity supply by addressing critical power nodes, backed by an anticipated investment of $500 million. The initiative demands that the storage systems can provide energy for a minimum of four consecutive hours during each discharge cycle. This initiative reflects a profound shift in Argentina’s approach to energy infrastructure, emphasizing technological innovation and private investment to surmount longstanding systemic challenges.
