Mallawa Ventures is planning to build a facility near Chennai, Tamil Nadu, to produce hydrogen fuel cell buses. Company officials have announced plans to build a hydrogen plant and bus manufacturing facility in the Chennai area. Roughly one hundred units per month might be produced at the proposed plant. Over the following eight years, the corporation intends to invest a total of about Rs 8,000 crore. Locating a suitable location for the projected manufacturing near Chennai is under underway, and the company hopes to release its first experimental product within the next nine to twelve months. For its buses to…

To compete in the eVTOL industry, LuftCar is creating HYDROB, a hydrogen fuel cell–battery hybrid propulsion system. If you have a vehicle with a GVW of up to 8500 pounds, HYDROB will provide enough vertical thrust to tow it for up to 500 kilometers. LuftCar will serve as a systems integrator alongside Bosch Aviation and a few other automotive fuel cell firms to create the propulsion system. The research and development for this new technology will take place in the United States, however exactly where is still a secret. The battery’s chemistry and fuel cell type are still being kept…

In a strategic partnership, Linsinger Maschinenbau Gmbh and Loram Maintenance Way will provide Linsinger technology to customers in North America. Loram will now own the Linsinger MG11 Hydrogen, a zero-emissions machine, thanks to the terms of the new deal. The pioneering example of its sort in the international train industry. The CEO of Loram, Phil Homan, has said, “Loram prides itself on satisfying our customer’s rail extension needs. We have admired Linsinger’s technology from afar for years and are pleased to add them to our portfolio. We believe this alliance signals Loram’s commitment to our customers and our planet.” Linsinger…

RWE will be present in the Hydrogen Zone at the Labour and Conservative party conferences. The Hydrogen Zone is an inter-sectoral partnership whose members collectively convey the story of the expanding hydrogen economy in the United Kingdom. British hydrogen technology, such as a double-decker bus, hydrogen boiler, and electrolyser, will be on display in the Hydrogen Zone, with models and visual representations of the country’s most innovative hydrogen initiatives. Hydrogen is investigated in The Zone for its potential to release green jobs of the future, stimulate private investment and economic growth, fortify energy security, and aid the United Kingdom in…

Rheinmetall displayed its recently developed and pilot-phase mobile green hydrogen production and storage device at the Africa Aerospace and Defense Expo. Rheinmetall Denel Munition (RDM), a South African affiliate of the Rheinmetall Group, offers a complete and modular solution for supplying power to civil, industrial, expedition, and outdoor infrastructure. The platform’s solar charge controllers and as many as 112 solar panels are housed in a shipping container, making it suitable for usage in undeveloped areas without the need for an additional power source. Roughly a year has gone into the development of Rheinmetall’s pilot platform, which features a 4 kW…

The Clean Energy demonstration challenge, spearheaded by the United States, has been granted €28 billion by the European Commission to aid in the commercialization of new technologies and speed up the energy transition. As part of a larger push to reach net zero emissions by 2050, US Vice President Joe Biden launched the clean energy challenge in June, promising $90 billion in public investment from 2022 to 2026. Funding from the EU is provided through the Horizon Europe research program, the Innovation Fund, and InvestEU. Industries that have a hard time transitioning away from fossil fuels include steel production; the…

Air Liquide and Toyota France are teaming up to introduce hydrogen mobility at Paris’s Nuit Blanche 2022. Nuit Blanche will return to Paris for its 21st iteration on October 1, 2022.To be more specific, guests can take advantage of complimentary shuttles between the Charléty Stadium, the Town Hall, and La Villette. You’ll be exploring some famous landmarks in a brand-new Toyota Mirai that runs on Air Liquide’s zero-emission hydrogen fuel. While sales of electric cars have been on the rise, hydrogen-powered vehicles have not kept pace. Some studies, however, have shown its ecological efficacy. Fuel cells provide cars more freedom…

Startup France Hopium plans to develop and produce its hydrogen sedan Machina in Normandy. The Vernon facility will open in 2024. The new Hopium site might employ 1,500 people. The 85-hectare site in Vernon, an hour north of Paris, will include 20,000-vehicle-per-year assembly lines and an R&D center. The Machina is a motorsport-inspired hydrogen-powered automobile. The startup unveiled its first driveable prototype in June 2021. At the time, it was already planned to mass-produce the Machina. Hopium’s website lists 500 hp (370 kW) and 230 km/h as first critical data for its platform. With one tank of petrol, the vehicle…

Hydrogen Insights 2022, published by the Hydrogen Council, explains why the world’s economy need hydrogen investment and development now more than ever. As a result, it is more important than ever to put money into fully formed hydrogen initiatives. Our economies require clean [renewable] hydrogen, and action is needed to convert proposals into actual deployment,” the report stated, citing the rebound of carbon emissions to above pre-COVID levels, the invasion of Ukraine, and growing concerns around energy security as a result of the war in Europe. According to the research, even while funding for hydrogen projects is increasing at a…

Europe has nuclear tensions. Because the EU focuses on this low-carbon technology’s hydrogen role. Berlin wants to link nuclear with hydrocarbons despite its negligible climate impact. He won’t label nuclear-produced hydrogen “green.” After Fukushima, Germany decided to phase out nuclear power more than a decade ago. 100% renewable energy by 2030, up from 40%. France wants to generate “green” H2 using its low-carbon nuclear reactor mix. Agnès Pannier-Runacher wants hydro, wind, photovoltaic, and uranium fission included. Almost 96% of Europe’s energy is generated by steam reforming the methane molecule (CH4) in gas, which generates 9 to 10 kg of CO2…
