Europe is poised to dominate the green hydrogen market over the next five years, with the UK and the US facing an uphill battle to catch up, according to a report by international law firm Pillsbury.

South Australia is set to become a global leader in green hydrogen production with a groundbreaking project in Whyalla. The state government has selected a consortium comprising ATCO Australia and BOC, a British industrial gas and engineering group, as preferred partners to build a massive 250 MW hydrogen production facility, a 200 MW hydrogen power plant, and a hydrogen storage facility in the Upper Spencer Gulf.

Oman is setting its sights on a sustainable, carbon-neutral energy future with a groundbreaking Blue Hydrogen and Ammonia project led by Oman Shell. This ambitious venture, planned for implementation in Duqm, has received the endorsement of the Ministry of Energy and Minerals, marking a significant step toward large-scale adoption of green hydrogen in the country. Blue Hydrogen production involves converting natural gas into hydrogen and carbon dioxide (CO2). The CO2 is captured and stored, leaving behind Blue Hydrogen. When combined with nitrogen, it transforms into Blue Ammonia. Both processes are carbon-neutral, resulting in what’s known as “low-carbon” hydrogen and ammonia.…

France on Wednesday repeated calls to class hydrogen produced with atomic power as “green”, lining up a new clash with Germany over nuclear’s role in Europe’s energy plans.

Germany is stepping up its commitment to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) with an ambitious project that combines green hydrogen, carbon capture, and cutting-edge Fischer Tropsch (FT) technology. The collaboration between Johnson Matthey (JM) and bp has marked a significant milestone by having EDL Anlagenbau Gesellschaft select their FT CANS™ technology for the HyKero plant in Böhlen-Lippendorf, Germany.

The Gulf nations are rapidly positioning themselves as key players in the global green hydrogen supply chain. Hydrogen, produced using renewable electricity, holds the promise of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combatting climate change.

California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has inked an $80 million deal with Stadler Rail to introduce the first hydrogen-powered intercity passenger trains in North America. This groundbreaking initiative reinforces California’s commitment to being a global pioneer in clean and eco-friendly transport solutions.

U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced a substantial investment of up to $1 billion in the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Hub (PNW H2). This initiative is part of a broader strategy by the DOE, which is allocating a total of $7 billion in federal funding to establish seven regional clean hydrogen hubs across the country.

The United Kingdom should eliminate the pursuit of hydrogen heating to shift its focus towards decarbonizing heat with electric heat pumps, according to the National Infrastructure Commission (NIC), the government’s independent advisors on infrastructure.

In an audacious bid to revolutionize the automotive landscape, five Japanese automakers – Toyota, Suzuki, Honda, Kawasaki, and Yamaha – have joined forces to establish the Hydrogen Small mobility & Engine technology (HySE) Research Association. Their ambitious goal? To develop a groundbreaking hydrogen-powered 1.0-liter engine, challenging the dominance of battery-electric powertrains in the passenger car segment. This innovative collaboration is poised to bring a new wave of clean energy solutions to the forefront. The HySE association is not merely content with theorizing about hydrogen engine capabilities; they’re gearing up to showcase their technological prowess in the most extreme conditions. Their…
