Spain’s ambitious steps toward achieving its renewable energy goals are gaining momentum with a significant investment in hydrogen and solar initiatives across Andalucía. The Spanish Government has allocated 25 million euros to bolster four key projects, underscoring its commitment to green energy and economic revitalization in the region. In 2022 alone, the global renewable energy market witnessed a 10% growth, driven by advancements in solar technology and hydrogen power. These sectors are anticipated to grow further, propelled by government incentives and technological innovations. Andalucía, with its abundant sunlight and strategic location, is poised to become a cornerstone of Spain’s renewable…

Nel Hydrogen US, a subsidiary of the Norwegian company Nel, has procured a significant purchase order valued at approximately $6 million from Collins Aerospace. This order pertains to the provision of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer stacks earmarked for use by the United States Navy. The stacks will specifically produce oxygen critical for life support on submarines, a segment that underscores the vital intersection between innovative energy solutions and military operations. This order marks a continuation of Nel’s enduring collaboration with Collins Aerospace—a partnership underscored by an exclusive supply agreement providing essential equipment designed to sustain extended underwater operations. Todd…

A safety presentation by Lennie Klebanoff of Sandia National Laboratories underscores the complexities of handling, storing, and transporting hydrogen safely—issues that demand urgent industry-wide attention.

South Africa’s venture into green hydrogen production is gaining momentum as construction commences on a renewable hydrogen plant, anticipated to significantly contribute to the green energy landscape.

Nigeria’s audacious move to harness solar power for its burgeoning green hydrogen economy is underscored by its recent agreement with LONGi Solar France SARL for the supply of 2,600 megawatts (MW) in solar modules.

Taiwan’s HD Renewable Energy (HDRE) and Australia’s ZEN Energy have strategically diversified their energy storage portfolio, targeting a significant portion of the Asia-Pacific region.

The European energy sector is witnessing a significant transformation with the increased integration of renewable energy sources.

According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), a staggering 91% of global electricity generation could be sourced from renewables by 2050 to limit global warming to 1.5°C. However, these renewable sources are inherently unpredictable, introducing volatility into energy systems. This variability underscores the critical importance of efficient energy storage systems (ESS).

CertifHy’s Strategic Partner Expansion for Hydrogen Certification As the hydrogen industry grapples with the intricacies of the EU’s Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin (RFNBO) standards, CertifHy has taken a pivotal step by appointing three distinguished certification bodies to oversee audits of hydrogen producers. These bodies include Belgium’s Vinçotte and Germany-based TÜD Rheinland and TÜD SÜD, each entrusted with ensuring hydrogen’s compliance with stringent EU directives, particularly concerning renewable energy sourcing and consumption. EU directives stipulate that by 2030, producers seeking subsidies must source electricity from newly constructed renewable sources aligned with the grid’s temporal production schedule. With these upcoming requirements,…

This ambitious project emerges against the backdrop of the European Union’s Clean Hydrogen Alliance aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. With the hydrogen economy expected to burgeon, such infrastructure projects are increasingly critical to support anticipated demand. Hydrogen as a fuel and raw material is recognized as one of the key technologies to reduce the ecological footprint of industrial activities on the way to a carbon-neutral economy by 2050. Based on Fluxys’ decades-long expertise in gas transport, the subsidiary Fluxys Hydrogen NV was established in 2023 to develop the necessary infrastructure for hydrogen transport. In April 2024, Fluxys Hydrogen…
