Baroness Brown, a former vice chair of the Climate Change Committee (CCC), is one of the members of a new group called the “Hydrogen Policy Commission.” This group will help policymakers as the green and blue hydrogen sectors grow in the UK. In addition to Baroness Brown, there will be senior representatives from the Conservative Party, Labour Party, and Liberal Democrats on the Commission. They will be joined by people who work in hydrogen from the private sector and senior academics from the UK. There will be a report later this year from the Commission about the UK government’s Hydrogen…

Polluting diesel locomotives harms the environment. Testing of hydrogen and biogas engines in Saxony-Anhalt is unique in Europe, with technicians conducting the conversion of engines to hydrogen and biogas. It’s just a big diesel engine, in reality. This test bench in Saxony-Anhalt has a unique drive unit: a hydrogen-powered diesel engine. Installation on a diesel train is the next step. An approximately 15-year-old train from the Hessian state railway will arrive at the end of 2022. When in test mode, it doesn’t have any passengers, but eventually adds them. According to DUH’s priorities, erecting electric rail lines is a priority.…

According to a new study, domestic financial institutions should actively seek out and use excellent hydrogen-related companies when making lending and investment decisions. To meet the 2050 carbon-neutrality goal, financial institutions should lend and invest money in hydrogen-based economies, according to the report’s authors. When discussing the “Hydrogen Economy: The Emergence and Implications of a New Paradigm,” Woori Financial Management Research Institute stated that “it is necessary to discover and monitor excellent distribution companies with growth potential and using a large market size.” Since carbon neutrality has emerged as a global paradigm, financial institutions are being urged to actively support…

Vehicles powered by electricity or hydrogen are moving forward at a rapid pace. Which of these is considered safest and most promising by experts? Environmental protection is now a priority for the vast majority of automakers. Some people are putting their faith in electric vehicles, while others are working on a hydrogen-based alternative fuel. The advantages and disadvantages of each technology are unique. Using an electric motor, a car’s electric power can be converted into mechanical power. An electromagnetic induction technique is employed. You can use either alternating or direct current, or a combination of both. Air is used to…

The European Commission has passed the most comprehensive revision of the energy statistics regulation in history. The goal is to increase support for the European Green Deal. This amendment, which will take effect in February, will provide statistics to track a number of policy initiatives aimed at decarbonizing the European economy, including the Energy Union and the Fit for 55 package, as well as the Hydrogen Strategy and the Batteries Initiative. The new data will be available for the first time in 2022. “Today’s amendment to the energy statistics regulation marks a milestone on the path to a credible and…

Werner will begin validation and integration of Cummins’ recently announced 15-liter natural gas and 15-liter hydrogen internal combustion engines in its vehicles. Cummins plans to start integrating these new powertrains into Werner trucks in the second half of 2022, starting with the 15-liter natural gas model. “Werner is a transportation leader focused on reducing its carbon footprint, and Cummins is uniquely positioned to help provide low carbon options successfully and seamlessly using multiple power solutions,” said Srikanth Padmanabhan, Vice President and President, Engine Business, Cummins. “Our solutions include our newest heavy-duty natural gas engine and our heavy-duty hydrogen ICE engine…

India has announced new initiatives to promote green hydrogen, with Finance Minister Nirmala Sitaraman announcing the upcoming publication of the National Hydrogen Energy Mission (NHEM), which was first mentioned in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 2021 Independence Day speech. The most significant challenges facing India are the development and demonstration of technically and economically viable and cost-competitive green hydrogen technologies (including transportation technologies), as well as the establishment of a robust supply chain and delivery mechanism for these technologies. As a result, we expect the Union Budget 2022-23 to build on the preliminary announcements made in the Union Budget 2021-22 and…

PowerCell Sweden AB has joined the coordinated European development project Camelot in order to accelerate the company’s long-term technological development. The project’s goal is to develop new materials for future fuel cells. Leading research institutions, universities, and industrial companies, such as BMW, are also involved in the project. Camelot has received funding from the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen 2 Joint Undertaking, FCH JU, under grant agreement number 875 155, and brings together participants from several European countries. The European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program funds the FCH JU Joint Undertaking. The project’s goal is to develop a new…

A shipyard in Europe is getting closer to launching a one-of-a-kind experimental hybrid vessel that will serve as a floating laboratory for hydrogen fuel cells and other green technologies. Fincantieri announced at the end of 2020 that it would begin construction on Zeus (Zero Emission Ultimate Ship), a fuel cell-powered vessel that would be used to study the performance of fuel cells in natural settings. Fincantieri is one of the most important players in the industry that is focusing on clean energy alternatives. As Europe’s largest shipbuilding group, known for delivering famous superyachts and cruise ships, Fincantieri is one of…

Shell has begun operations at the Zhangjiakou City Transport Construction Investment Holding Group power-to-hydrogen electrolyser, a joint venture between Shell China and Zhangjiakou City Transport Construction Investment Holding Group. In Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, China, one of the world’s largest hydrogen electrolysers1 began producing green hydrogen today. During the Winter Olympic Games, which begin on February 4, 2022, the electrolyser will provide about half of the total green hydrogen supply for fuel cell vehicles at the Zhangjiakou competition zone. “The electrolyser is the largest in our portfolio to date and is in line with Shell’s Powering Progress strategy, which includes plans…
