Poland Accelerates Green Hydrogen Ambitions with $581M State Funding for Five Projects
Poland is stepping up its domestic green hydrogen production as the state development bank, BGK, signs agreements totaling PLN 2.117 billion ($581 million / €498 million) in non-repayable funding for five hydrogen projects across the country.
As renewable energy penetration rises, balancing intermittent generation with reliable grid services remains a pressing challenge. Subsurface pumped energy storage (SPES) is emerging as a versatile solution, offering kilowatt-to-megawatt-scale power output from a single well while achieving storage densities over 30 times greater than conventional pumped hydro storage.
Sunfire and P2X Solutions Advance Finland’s Hydrogen Scale-Up with 40 MW Joensuu Project
Finland’s hydrogen ambitions are entering a new phase as Sunfire and P2X Solutions extend their collaboration to a 40 MW green hydrogen project in Joensuu, marking one of the country’s largest planned electrolyzer installations to date.
Lisburn Approves £75M Battery Project to Boost Northern Ireland’s Renewable Energy Grid
Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council has approved planning for a £75 million long-duration battery energy storage facility at Moneybroom Road, Lisburn — a project positioned to play a pivotal role in Northern Ireland’s transition to a low-carbon, resilient electricity grid.
Europe’s clean energy transition is increasingly looking south, as Morocco positions itself as a strategic partner for the Netherlands in renewable hydrogen supply.
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) represent a strategic advancement in the modernization of distribution networks, yet they introduce significant analytical complexities into expansion planning models.
Has Green Hydrogen Had Its Moment? The Correction is Global. The Opportunity is Irish.
The green hydrogen sector is navigating a pivotal phase. After a surge of ambitious announcements, over 12.5 million tones of annual capacity now face delays or cancellations.
In a move that could test the commercial viability of natural hydrogen exploration in Canada, MAX Power Mining Corp. has defined the first deep-drilling target specifically designed to locate naturally occurring hydrogen gas within the country’s subsurface.
Revolutionizing Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling: Direct Regeneration for Sustainable Future
The escalating demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), driven by the proliferation of electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage solutions, has simultaneously ushered in concerns over end-of-life battery waste.
Fortum’s Loviisa Nuclear Plant Returns to Full Operation After Delays and Fuel Transition Milestones
Both units of Finland’s Loviisa nuclear power plant have resumed power generation following the completion of extended annual outages, marking a critical step in Fortum’s long-term operational and modernization strategy. While the outages ensured continued safety and reliability, they also underscored the operational complexity of extending plant lifetimes amid fuel diversification efforts and infrastructure renewal.
