The global energy sector stands on the brink of transformation as renewable technologies gradually supplant traditional energy sources. A key highlight in this shift is the recent award of a supply contract to JinkoSolar, a prominent photovoltaic technology provider, by ACME Group for Oman’s 487.5MW green hydrogen project. This venture underscores the evolving dynamics of the photovoltaic hydrogen sector and aligns with the broader trend toward decarbonization. Oman, with its high solar irradiation levels—boasting an average of 2,300 sunshine hours annually—presents a strategic location for harnessing solar energy efficiently. In desert landscapes, where temperatures can soar above 50°C, JinkoSolar’s N-type…

The maritime sector’s search for scalable, zero-emission propulsion systems took a step forward with Yanmar Power Technology’s (Yanmar PT) hydrogen fuel cell system receiving Approval in Principle (AiP) from classification society DNV.

Carmen Font, CEO of Font Corporation and a seasoned strategist in energy investments and market expansion has been appointed to the Energy News Advisory Board.

Dr. Danica Maljković, Chair of the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, Hydrogen Europe Board of Directors member, and Chief Technology Officer at DOK-ING Indeloop, has joined the Energy News Advisory Board, bringing two decades of expertise in hydrogen technology, renewable energy systems, and energy policy.

BBVA is extending a ‘project finance’ loan to Basque Hydrogen for its hydrogen plant initiative.

Samsung C&T is asserting its position in the Small Modular Reactor (SMR) market with a new Technical Advisory (TA) agreement in Estonia.

HydePoint AS and Nel Hydrogen have taken a decisive step toward revolutionizing hydrogen production, signing a Memorandum of Understanding to advance projects in offshore and nearshore environments.

In the latest signal that hydrogen infrastructure still has critical reliability gaps to address, emergency services were deployed to the Wunsiedel Energy Park in Bavaria after a hydrogen leak was detected on-site. The incident, triggered by a technical failure in an automatic safety valve, led to a temporary evacuation but no injuries. While the hydrogen was safely vented and operations resumed within hours, the episode has reignited questions about the operational maturity of hydrogen facilities in Europe and beyond. Systemic Risk in Early-Stage Infrastructure The Wunsiedel leak is not an isolated case but part of a growing pattern of technical…

BGR Tech and Chemie Tech have teamed up to spearhead large-scale green hydrogen and ammonia projects, a collaboration that signifies a notable shift in the energy sector’s approach to sustainable solutions.

Ignis has announced a substantial investment exceeding 51 million euros in Aragón to bolster the production of green hydrogen and steam, a move that reflects the region’s growing emphasis on sustainable energy solutions. Aragón, already a strategic point for renewable energy advancements in Spain, stands to benefit significantly from this allocation as it seeks to enhance its profile in the clean energy sector. The company plans to leverage local renewable electricity sources to generate green hydrogen, which will potentially be utilized across various industries in Aragón, including chemical, industrial processing, and transportation sectors. The pressing challenge remains the economic feasibility…
