The majority of the hydrogen that will be used worldwide will be shipped and pipelined over large distances. According to a McKinsey analysis, which served as the foundation for the Hydrogen Council’s report, Global Hydrogen Flows, this is the case. Trading hydrogen is essential for efficient decarbonization. The established Global Hydrogen Trade Model has optimized 1.5 million potential trade routes in total, with the demand model linked with the routes to reach the net zero climate goals in the four time periods of 2025, 2030, 2040, and 2050 years. With 660 million tons of hydrogen expected to be consumed globally…

On October 17, NTPC stock was up for trade, starting at Rs 165.10 and climbing as high as Rs 169.05. The signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Japan’s Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and its subsidiary Mitsubishi Power India Private Limited may be responsible for the increase in share price. According to a news statement from the Ministry of Power, the MoU was signed to show the viability of co-firing blended hydrogen and natural gas in MHI 701D gas turbines installed at NTPC’s Auraiya Gas Power Plant in Uttar Pradesh. NTPC, one of India’s top power producers, wants to replace…

A novel idea created by academics at the University of New South Wales can reduce the environmental impact of diesel engines. They have modified a unit such that it uses 10% less diesel fuel than it did previously. Hydrogen is the source of the remaining energy. Emissions of CO2 and other pollutants can be cut by 85% in this approach. The team is preserving direct injection for diesel but adding another system of this kind to force more hydrogen into the cylinder. Shawn Kook is the project leader and is from the School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. The new…

The switch to a CO2-neutral economy by 2050 has begun. Green hydrogen will be vital if we want to fight climate change cooperatively as a society. Measures on the route to a climate-neutral economy have so far centered on power from renewable sources. But important businesses like steel and shipping won’t convert to electricity, green or not. The key to decarbonizing these locations is hydrogen. However, the creation of hydrogen on the basis of fossil fuels does produce CO2 . The hydrogen produced can only be labeled “green” if it is created by means of electrolysis and using renewable energy.…

With the introduction of its green hydrogen solutions, Longi, which has shipped more than 7 GW of monocrystalline solar panels to India, hopes to complete the country’s green energy ecosystem. To supply its electrolyzers, the company is already in discussions with developers in India. Additionally, it will train and supervise the commissioning of hydrogen project EPC partners. Longi introduced its alkaline water electrolyzer, which is a significant milestone and a crucial step toward becoming a global leader in hydrogen technology. Longi continues to invest extensively in R&D and innovation. Longi electrolyzers are capable of producing 1,000 Nm3/h of hydrogen, and…

State-funded modeling indicates that the production cost of green hydrogen is unlikely to reach $2 per kilogram before 2040, and consultation on a target for Western Australian power production from green hydrogen has begun. When put into practice, this would mandate that “electricity retailers and maybe major users [buy] a percentage of their electricity from hydrogen-fueled generation.” By 2023, the target’s design should be complete and ready to be implemented into the state’s primary grid, the South-West Interconnected System (SWIS). The goal advances the state’s intention, expressed in its renewable hydrogen plan, to emerge as a significant producer, exporter, and…

The Scottish government’s Just Transition Fund has awarded the Net Zero Technology Centre (NZTC) a grant of £2.12 million (US$2.36 million) to fund its Hydrogen Offshore Production Project (HOP2). HOP2, a four-year project, will show whether scaling up current oil and gas infrastructure for 500 MW to 1 GW of offshore hydrogen production and storage is viable. The initiative will also assess the possible benefits of a newbuild project for offshore hydrogen production on the UK Continental Shelf and its potential effects on the local Scottish workforce. In order to achieve net zero energy production by 2040, HOP2 wants to…

Cummins will soon start construction on its new gigawatt electrolyzer manufacturing plant in Guadalajara, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. Cummins chose Spain as the location for a new proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer plant last year. Earlier this year, the company purchased over 530,000 square feet (50,000 square meters) of land in Guadalajara, Castilla-La Mancha, where it is now preparing to begin construction. The new PEM electrolyzer plant is expected to be completed by the end of 2023. The more than 200,000 square foot (20,000 square meter) facility will house system assembly and testing and will be capable of producing 500MW of…

In accordance with EU State aid regulations, the European Commission has granted a €220 million grant to assist Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios in producing renewable hydrogen. By reducing reliance on Russian fossil fuels and advancing the green transition in line with the REPowerEU Plan, the action supports the EU Hydrogen Strategy and European Green Deal ambitions. The decision made today comes after two Important Projects of Common European Interest (IPCEI, “Hy2Tech” and “Hy2Use”) in the hydrogen value chain received approval in July and September. Spain chose Cobra’s project from an open call to be a part of an IPCEI on…

For the Indian market, Daimler Trucks will forgo the compressed natural gas (CNG) market and instead turn to hydrogen and electric alternatives. In-city small truck use will likely be addressed by the electric option, while long-distance, heavy-duty use can be addressed by hydrogen. Daimler might compete in the small truck area up to 3.5 tonne with an electric drivetrain, despite the fact that it does not already have a ready-to-market vehicle in that market. The small truck market is anticipated to make the conversion to electric more quickly than other CV categories due to its limited intra-city usage. Hydrogen is…
