In a bid to develop an ecosystem that can help commercialize green hydrogen, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has unveiled a ₹4 billion (~$48.12 million) Research and Development (R&D) Roadmap for the National Green Hydrogen Mission.

IKEA Austria has become the first IKEA store in the world to introduce hydrogen fuel cell trucks, as part of its ambitious plan to make 100% of its last-mile deliveries emission-free by 2025.

Emperium shipyard tests Russia’s first electric hydrogen vessel prototype The Emperium shipyard tested Russia’s first electric hydrogen vessel prototype on Niva in the Leningrad region. Its foundation is an odd piece of technology: an electrochemical generator (ECG) creates energy from hydrogen; the end product is precisely the electricity needed to power the batteries. Both the Sitronics group and the Center for Hydrogen Technologies of AFK Sistema deemed the test successful. The Sitronics group developed the vessel, and the Center was in charge of developing the generator. This is covered by TASS. Hero Future Energies to enter green hydrogen market Hero…

Australia has opened its $2 billion Hydrogen Headstart program to applications, as it seeks to bridge the commercial gap between the cost of producing green hydrogen and the market price for large-scale projects.
