Hydrogen Technologies, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jericho Energy Ventures, announced a new initiative to support district heat decarbonization through the use of its groundbreaking cleanH2steam DCC zero-emission renewable-hydrogen boiler. It’s a perfect fit for HT’s District Heat solution, which was recently announced by the Department of Energy (DOE) as a $7.5 million two-year pilot project to reduce carbon emissions and improve district heat system efficiency. District Energy operators can use HT’s DCC hydrogen boiler to explore the Hydrogen Economy while also reducing CO2, SOX, and NOX emissions. HT’s sales team is working with energy thought leaders and first-movers to…

The first shipment of liquified hydrogen in the world is being sent from Australia to Japan. The A$500 million Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) pilot project has reached a significant milestone. For the first time ever, liquid hydrogen will be extracted, liquefied, and transported to an international market by sea. From Victoria’s Port Hastings to Kobe, the super-cooled liquid hydrogen will be transported by the Suiso Frontier. The 116-meter vessel is the world’s first liquefied hydrogen carrier specifically designed for that purpose. Top energy and infrastructure companies from Australia and Japan were involved in the HESC project including Kawasaki Heavy…

Type 4 high-pressure hydrogen cylinder orders have been received by Hexagon Purus from India’s largest private sector company, Reliance Industries Limited. Hexagon Purus’ first ever orders for hydrogen applications in India will be the hydrogen cylinders, which will be prototypes in pilot projects for automobiles and backup power solutions.. The orders are a first step for Reliance towards establishing themselves as a leading clean energy player and aiding India’s transition to a zero-emission society. As part of a USD 80 billion investment program in clean energy, hydrogen will play a key role in decarbonizing the economy. “We are pleased to…

Bramble Energy, a London-based fuel cell company, has secured a £35 million investment round to further expand its game-changing capabilities in solving key challenges in the production and implementation of hydrogen fuel cell stacks. Cost, inflexibility, manufacturing complexity, and scaling issues limit current hydrogen fuel cell technologies. Bramble Energy’s revolutionary technology and global manufacturing base change the game. Due to Bramble Energy’s use of the printed circuit board (PCB) market, custom fuel cell stacks can be produced in days rather than months or years as with other manufacturers. Bramble Energy’s current institutional investors (BGF, IP Group, Parkwalk Advisors, and the…

Hyzon Motors has signed a deal with the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (RACV) to produce zero-emissions hydrogen-powered tilt-tray trucks for its subsidiary, the Nationwide Group, in Melbourne. Australia’s new purpose-built headquarters are located in Noble Park and include the company’s new corporate offices, as well as an assembly warehousing facility and service workshop. By 2025, more than 100 local engineering and manufacturing jobs are expected to be generated by the facility. RACV-owned subsidiary Nationwide Group has placed a first order for three hydrogen-powered Hyzon HyMax TT7 tilt-tray trucks through the partnership, making it the first time an Australian towing…

Hydrogen has been designated as a future energy source by the US federal government. Using hydrogen generated by wind and solar power, industries such as steelmakers will be supplied over the next few decades. As part of this effort, the country’s reliance on foreign energy sources should be reduced. Federal officials say hydrogen will play a major role in the aviation industry as well. As the number of flights continues to rise, airlines are aiming to reduce their CO2 emissions by at least half by the year 2050. Bio-kerosene research is a priority for the companies, but hydrogen is also…

“The forefront of an energy transition wave” in the United States is what Andres Fernandez sees as a tremendous opportunity for WSP USA, a leading engineering and professional services consultancy, to guide its Energy clients through. Since joining the firm in 2017, Fernandez has been in charge of helping clients achieve their environmental, social, and governance goals by reducing carbon emissions and promoting new energy sources. He will now lead the firm’s efforts to shape the hydrogen economy. Prior to this, he worked as a vice president for major energy projects at WSP, where he supported project managers in the…

The Egyptian government has given Scatec and its partners permission to investigate the possibility of temporarily procuring electricity from the grid for an upcoming green hydrogen plant in Egypt. Scatec and its partners, Orascom and The Sovereign Fund of Egypt (TSFE), requested that the Egyptian Cabinet approve their request to expedite the project’s implementation ahead of the COP 27 summit that will be held in Egypt in November. In the early stages of the project, the partners intend to draw power from the grid until they have built their own renewable energy capacity. When their green power plant goes online,…

Employees at Moscow State University’s Faculty of Chemistry have improved the reaction of magnesium hydride with water, paving the way for the generation of hydrogen for use in fuel cells. The addition of alkali metal, ammonium, and/or magnesium salts increases hydrogen yield from 22% to nearly 100%, while the hydrogen flow rate increases eightfold, according to the study’s authors. Compact low-power fuel cells, such as chargers for electronics or power supply systems for consumers in remote and isolated locations, are powered by autonomous hydrogen sources. The interaction of a light metal (aluminum or magnesium) or its hydride with water is…

As it strives to achieve net-zero operational emissions by 2030, Quorn will investigate how green hydrogen technology could aid in decarbonizing its manufacturing operations. The company announced a collaboration with Protium, a UK-based hydrogen production and services company, to see if using dual-fuel boilers for heating processes at Quorn’s Billingham factory could reduce emissions and energy costs. The boilers will be able to run on natural gas, as well as pure hydrogen and hydrogen blends, which are currently used at the factory. Protium will supply hydrogen to Quorn’s Belasis factory as part of the partnership. It hopes to supply hydrogen…
