The landscape of Tyrolean transportation is on the cusp of transformation, as stakeholders behind the Zillertalbahn railway system contemplate the future of its propulsion system. In a recent press conference, the possibilities of adopting battery operation or persisting with the favored hydrogen solution were discussed. The conversation surrounding the conversion of Zillertalbahn’s drive has veered toward two distinct possibilities: the utilization of battery operation or the continuation of the hydrogen-based solution. Although the hydrogen drive enjoys “consensus in the valley,” Franz Hörl, Chairman of the Zillertalbahn Supervisory Board, acknowledged that the door is not entirely shut on battery operation. While…
Nutrien, the Canadian fertilizer behemoth, has hit pause on its ambitious plans to construct a groundbreaking blue ammonia plant, citing escalating costs and a paucity of demand as the primary factors driving this decision.
Bulgartransgaz explores hydrogen transmission demand The non-binding survey is being conducted to determine market demand for hydrogen transmission capacity, according to Bulgartransgaz, the government-owned gas transmission company of Bulgaria. According to a news release from Bulgartransgaz, the survey will be conducted in conjunction with nearby operators to determine market interest in hydrogen’s possible place in the future energy mix as well as to estimate the demand for hydrogen transmission capacity. The outcomes will make it easier to plan and build the essential infrastructure for hydrogen transmission to and via Bulgaria, identifying potential production sites there and end-user departure points. New…
Koppö Energia, a Finland-based energy company, has joined hands with the international technology conglomerate ANDRITZ to propel the frontiers of green hydrogen production.
The University of Sheffield is poised to become a trailblazer in the realm of green hydrogen production, standing out as a leading UK research center in this pivotal field.

Tarragona EMT gets hydrogen from Carburos Metálicos The Tarragona City Council has awarded a contract to the Air Products group company Carburos Metálicos to deliver renewable hydrogen to the municipal fleet of buses in the Catalan city. The equipment required to feed hydrogen to the buses run by the Tarragona Municipal Transport Company (EMT) will also be provided by Carburos Metálicos. In addition, “hydrogen is produced in the same province, which is why the creation of a local ecosystem around this energy vector is encouraged, which will be key in the process of energy transition and decarbonization of mobility in…
