Together, Sasol and ArcelorMittal South Africa are working to develop carbon capture technology for making sustainable fuels, chemicals, and steel through the use of green hydrogen and derivatives. The Saldanha green hydrogen and derivatives study, which will examine the region’s potential as an export hub for green hydrogen and derivatives as well as green steel production, and the Vaal carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) study, which will use renewable electricity and green hydrogen to convert captured carbon from ArcelorMittal South Africa’s Vanderbijlpark steel plant into int. In addition, Sasol and Freeport Saldanha Industrial Development Zone signed an MOU to create…

The Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) in Indonesia and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) have decided to work together on ammonia-fired gas turbine research and development. The project will investigate ammonia firing optimization using the Institut Teknologi Bandung’s (ITB) specific skills in chemical reaction engineering. The R&D partners will work toward the commercial use of ammonia-fired power generation in Indonesia after demonstration testing with MHI’s H-25 gas turbine. The facilities at ITB will be used for joint research and development on ammonia-fired power generation, with three main goals in mind: to advance Indonesia’s adoption of clean energy sources; to foster technological and…

H2Gremm creates tiny hydrogen production station The Finistère-based business H2Gremm, founded by Olivier Le Strat and Alain Rocheux, created the tiny hydrogen production station that uses the least amount of water and electricity while working. To be clear, 1kg is equivalent to a household of four’s daily demands for heating and electricity. To make this kilogram of hydrogen, which can also fuel vehicles, it will take roughly 70 kW and 10 liters of water. This station ranges in price from 50,000 to 500,000 euros, with a return on investment of 5 to 10 years, depending on usage. The station is…

Logan Energy has reached a significant agreement with Norwegian energy company Moreld to develop hydrogen power projects. In order to both fuel and decarbonize industry in the area, Logan Energy and Moreld will work together to connect production facilities with regional renewable energy sources directly. It is envisaged that Logan Energy will provide the technological solutions, and Moreld will offer building assistance and local market knowledge. With the opportunity to expand the collaboration to additional countries, the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) will see the Scottish company provide hydrogen solutions for the Norwegian and Scandinavian energy markets. The energy transformation issue…

CB&I, a division of McDermott, and Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) will undertake the feasibility study of a large liquid hydrogen (LH2) carrier that includes an LH2 storage tank design. To support nations like South Korea in achieving their carbon reduction objectives in a hydrogen economy, the ability to transport huge amounts of hydrogen across the ocean is becoming increasingly important. CB&I and DSME each bring a special set of skills to the study. DSME will look into and develop the general design of the ship to install the LH2 storage tank while CB&I will assess its LH2 storage…

On the site of the PCK oil refinery in Schwedt, the Brandenburg energy business Enertrag is moving forward with its plans to construct a hydrogen factory. With PCK, it has been agreed to create a concept for a green hydrogen plant by the first quarter of 2023. The refinery itself, as well as transportation and other industries like steel, should be able to run on renewable energy sources. The PCK refinery, which employs around 1,200 people, will stop relying on Russian oil. Background: On January 1st, an oil embargo against Russia due of the conflict in the Ukraine will go…

Hexagon Purus, through its fully owned subsidiary Wystrach GmbH, signed a framework agreement to deliver hydrogen distribution systems to a top European green hydrogen producer. Hexagon Purus’ type 4 hydrogen cylinders will offer hydrogen for transportation and industry in Europe. Framework agreements cost at least EUR 9.7 million. “We are currently experiencing strong commercial momentum within our hydrogen distribution business following the recent push from European authorities to reduce emissions and increase energy security”, says Michael Kleschinski, EVP of Hexagon Purus. “We are very happy to play an important part in supporting European authorities’ ambitious growth plan for hydrogen adoption”.

According to the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) research, “Global Hydrogen Review 2022,” the current energy crisis has increased interest in hydrogen, but more political backing is required to promote new and cleaner usage in heavy industries and long-distance transportation. With this assistance, between 16 and 24 million tons of low-emission hydrogen will be produced annually in 2030 using electrolyzers or carbon capture, storage, and use (CCUS) technology. Less than one million tons of low-emission hydrogen were produced globally in 2021, according to the report, which was presented at an Enerclub-sponsored event. These tons came from facilities that burn fossil fuels…

Dover Fueling Solutions (DFS), a global supplier of cutting-edge technologies, services, and solutions for the retail of fuel and convenience products, spoke with EnergyNews.biz about hydrogen fueling solutions.

The Mid West Hydrogen Hub is being developed more quickly thanks to $5.5 million in planning and study efforts from the McGowan administration. The Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation will work on the studies and planning throughout the ensuing 12 to 18 months. In order to connect the Oakajee SIA to the South West Interconnected System, Western Power will spend $3 million on planning activities and close cooperation with Energy Policy WA. DevelopmentWA will get $1.2 million to carry out land planning projects, while $600,000 will be used to carry out cultural heritage projects. Additionally, $500,000 will be…
