Air Liquide has initiated the sale of RFNBO-certified hydrogen at its facility in Oberhausen, Germany. This marks the first time RFNBO (Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin) certified hydrogen is available for mobility and industrial clients in Germany. The certification applies to the PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) Electrolyzer, nicknamed “Trailblazer,” located at this German site. The introduction of certified RFNBO hydrogen not only represents a commitment towards decarbonizing transport and industrial sectors but also highlights the potential for cleaner hydrogen as a viable alternative to current fossil fuel-based options. As industries strive for carbon neutrality, this development provides a certified renewable…

With the European Union aiming for a 55% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030, industries are increasingly scrutinizing their energy sources. A recent study in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy examines a novel approach combining high-temperature electrolysis with industrial waste heat to produce green hydrogen on-site. This strategy not only seeks to capitalize on the potential of Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOEC) but also aims to leverage existing industrial processes to enhance sustainability. According to the report, the SOEC system utilizes photovoltaic energy coupled with industrial waste heat, effectively optimizing resource use. The Levelized Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH) in…

Sunfire to supply a 10 MW electrolyzer for a green hydrogen initiative in Bilbao signifies a noteworthy advancement in the renewable energy landscape.

The current state of the hydrogen sector appears less promising than anticipated, seeing a rating decline from 11 to 9 out of 25 this year. The 1H 2025 Hydrogen Market Outlook by BloombergNEF sheds light on this situation by examining core factors impacting the industry’s trajectory. Hydrogen Market and Economic Components The cost of hydrogen production remains a significant barrier, reflected in the latest market assessments. High production costs are not matched by equivalent demand, a discrepancy exacerbated by insufficient policy support aimed at mediating this economic chasm. This mismatch is largely responsible for dampening investment rates, leading to the…

In recent years, the quest for clean energy solutions has become more pressing as the world seeks to reduce its carbon footprint. This patent, filed by Kraken Technology Holdings, LLC, presents a groundbreaking method for producing hydrogen with a carbon intensity of less than 0.45 kg CO2e per kg of hydrogen. Filed on March 27, 2025, this patent outlines a sophisticated process that could pave the way for more sustainable hydrogen production. Core Process: Electrolysis and Biomass Energy The electrolysis process is at the heart of this innovative approach, which decomposes water into oxygen and hydrogen. What makes this patent…

Electricity demand from global data centres is projected to more than double by 2030, reaching 945 terawatt-hours (TWh)—equivalent to Japan’s total electricity consumption today—driven largely by rapid growth in artificial intelligence (AI) deployment.

Finland-based technology group Wärtsilä will deliver a 64 MW / 128 MWh energy storage system for Octopus Australia’s Fulham Solar Battery Hybrid project, marking one of the first large-scale DC-coupled hybrid systems in Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM).

The demand for reliable and efficient battery management has never been more critical in today’s fast-paced technological landscape. Established in 2014, leagend SOLUTIONS developed from leagend, has emerged as a frontrunner in this domain, specializing in the research and development of cutting-edge battery testing and monitoring technologies, and comprehensive management solutions.

Green hydrogen has long been promised as a clean energy solution, but turning that promise into reality requires more than just ambition—it demands practical engineering. In a recent discussion with Yujin Lee of Lightbridge Korea, we explored how modular electrolyzers are quietly solving some of hydrogen’s biggest challenges.
