The hydrogen sector’s potential to revolutionize the energy landscape is theoretically vast, yet practical deployment continues to lag. Martin Tengler, Head of Hydrogen at BloombergNEF, elucidates the critical barriers stalling hydrogen’s progress and outlines the essential criteria, termed “policy stars,” that must align to truly harness the element’s promise. In a recent discourse at the BloombergNEF Forum in Tokyo, Tengler highlighted the precarious status of global hydrogen deployment. At the heart of the issue lies the misalignment of five strategic pillars, characterized as the “5 stars” of hydrogen strategy. These include a comprehensive strategy with clear targets, financial backing, especially…

The World Hydrogen Expo 2025 opened today at KINTEX with a ceremony underscoring Korea’s intent to position hydrogen within its broader industrial and mobility strategy.

Europe’s hydrogen economy is taking a decisive step forward as Uniper and thyssenkrupp Uhde have formalized a framework agreement to deploy large-scale ammonia cracking technology.

UAE-based investment firm Bin Zayed International (BZI) has assumed the lead investor role in a 200MW green hydrogen project in Terengganu, Malaysia, partnering with local developer Nova Re Suria (NRES).

Thyssenkrupp Nucera’s latest preliminary results offer a snapshot of a sector caught between long-term climate ambitions and short-term investment caution.

Spain’s push to anchor itself as a leading hydrogen producer gained new traction this week, as the Ministry for the Ecological Transition confirmed EUR 126.4 million in operating subsidies for two electrolyzer projects totaling 160 MW, installations that narrowly missed financing in the second European Hydrogen Bank (EHB) auction due to exhausted EU funds.

As Southeast Asia’s packaging waste volumes continue to rise—driven by rapid urbanization, growing consumption, and limited recycling infrastructure, policymakers and industry leaders are intensifying efforts to develop systems that can shift the region toward a functional circular economy.

ENGIE has won its first large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) project in India, marking a strategic entry into one of the world’s fastest-growing renewable energy markets.

Germany’s grid operators are processing an unprecedented surge in applications for large battery storage systems, many exceeding 100 MW, yet projects continue to advance only in strict chronological order.

Singapore’s energy and chemicals sector accounts for one of the country’s most emissions-intensive industrial clusters, with the energy and chemicals hub on Jurong Island alone representing a significant share of national industrial output and CO₂ emissions. As regional hydrogen demand begins to crystallize, the government has signaled a preference for low-carbon hydrogen pathways that can be integrated into existing refining and petrochemical assets rather than relying solely on renewable-powered electrolysis, which remains constrained by land and resource limitations. The latest move in that direction is a newly signed memorandum of understanding between Air Liquide Singapore and Aster Chemicals and Energy,…
