Germany’s hydrogen value chain gained new industrial momentum as BASF Environmental Catalyst and Metal Solutions (ECMS) inaugurated a production facility in Budenheim, near Frankfurt.

Samsung E&A has unveiled its latest green hydrogen production system, the CompassH2-P, developed in partnership with Nel Hydrogen.

Germany’s single electricity price zone, long considered a cornerstone of its liberalized power market, is now at the center of a debate about efficiency, grid stability, and fairness. As renewable generation expands rapidly in the north while industrial demand remains concentrated in the south, maintaining a uniform national price has led to mounting redispatch costs.

Norway is accelerating its green hydrogen ambitions as the Hyfuel (Florø) and Kaupanes Hydrogen (Egersund) projects reach final investment decision, each set to deliver 20 MW of green hydrogen production capacity.

Plug Power begins installing a 5 MW electrolyzer for the H2 Hollandia project, marking the country’s first decentralized green hydrogen hub.

Europe’s transport decarbonization strategy has entered a new phase. The European Commission has unveiled its Sustainable Transport Investment Plan (STIP), outlining a unified framework to channel capital toward renewable and low-carbon fuels for aviation and waterborne transport, sectors responsible for nearly 8% of EU greenhouse gas emissions and among the hardest to decarbonize.

As electric vehicle (EV) adoption accelerates across Europe, the Western Balkans are facing a defining moment in their transport transition.

French utility Engie plans to construct an 80-MW/320-MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Drogenbos, Flemish Brabant, with commercial operations expected by September 2027.

Plans for a 4 km natural gas pipeline intended to supply the Stanlow Manufacturing Complex (SMC) as part of the HyNet hydrogen energy project have been withdrawn, raising questions over the future logistics of the North West UK hydrogen scheme.

Denmark has entered a new phase of its green transition with the inauguration of the HySynergy plant in Fredericia, one of Europe’s first large-scale electrolysis facilities producing certified green hydrogen.
