A group from the Leibniz Institute for Catalysis in Rostock, Germany, devised the method that can store and release extremely pure hydrogen using salts in the presence of amino acids. Because hydrogen has the potential to be a widely used source of green energy, researchers concentrated on hydrogen storage. The ability to store hydrogen in solid salts in a reversible manner may make the fuel easier to handle and transport, however this method calls for the use of precious metals as catalysts and could result in the production of carbon dioxide as an unintended byproduct. The researchers created efficient storage-release…

The goal of the joint research being conducted by Air Liquide, Chevron, LyondellBasell, and Uniper SE is to assess and possibly progress the construction of a facility for producing hydrogen and ammonia in the U.S. Gulf Coast.

After the age of electric vehicles, Oliver Zipse, the chairman of BMW, stated that he thought hydrogen cars would be the “hippest thing to drive.”

Plug Power and FreezPak Logistics are collaborating in order to supply infrastructure for fuel cells, hydrogen storage, and fueling to nine additional sites and almost 400 lift trucks.

A new business unit called “Linga New Energies” has been founded in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India by Carbon Governance, a Singapore-based subsidiary of LNG Alliance, to act as a technology hub for green hydrogen in that country and Southeast Asia. India has a particular advantage over other countries in terms of cheap renewable electricity, which opens the door for green hydrogen to become the most practical option for achieving carbon neutrality in the future. The goal of Linga New Energies is to capitalize on Tamil Nadu’s robust skill base and solar power and wind farm capabilities. The biggest installed wind…

Plug Power and Olin Corporation established a joint venture in order to start with the development of a 15-ton per day hydrogen plant in St. Gabriel, Louisiana.

As part of Ports of Stockholm’s fossil-free operational ambitions, Ports of Stockholm, Volvo Penta, and CMB.TECH are partnering to jointly pilot and operate RoRo (roll on, roll off) tractors powered by hydrogen-diesel dual fuel powertrains. As part of a significant hydrogen investment in Stockholm Norvik Port, Ports of Stockholm, one of the world’s largest passenger ports and one of Sweden’s largest freight ports, and Volvo Penta, a provider of cutting-edge industrial power solutions, have formed a special cooperative relationship. The first pilot RoRo tractor is scheduled to be delivered in 2023. Before the machine is delivered to Ports of Stockholm,…

Western Australia offers land to companies for hydrogen development The Western Australian government is offering companies land in the Oakajee Strategic Industrial Area, 23 kilometers north of Geraldton on the state’s mid-coast, to construct green hydrogen projects. BP, Fortescue Future Industries (FFI), Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, Green LOHC, Kinara Power, and Blue Diamond Australia, all of which expressed interest in the concept, received spots. Western Australia wants to industrialize Oakajee. Western Australia owns 6,400 hectares of undeveloped land through DevelopmentWA. The government said the move is part of a $47.5 million plan to “activate” Oakajee Strategic Industrial Area and make it…

A memorandum of understanding for the nuclear clean hydrogen project was signed by GS E&C and Uljin-gun, Gyeongbuk. Through this MoU, GS E&C will take part in the construction of the Uljin Nuclear Hydrogen National Industrial Complex, a clean hydrogen production facility connected to an SMR, the nuclear hydrogen production national industrial complex project, a seawater desalination facility, and a national industrial complex for industrial water. Leading worldwide water treatment company “GS Inima,” GS E&C is now developing a new sustainable management model by expanding eco-friendly new businesses like eco-friendly modular housing, rechargeable battery battery recycling business, and smart farming.

The first green hydrogen power plant in Africa, built by French company HDF Energy, is slated to begin generating electricity in Namibia by 2024. When completed, the 3.1 billion Namibian dollar ($181.25 million) Swakopmund project will increase the country’s access to clean electricity by supplying it continuously throughout the year, 24 hours a day. Hydrogen is considered “green” when it is produced using renewable energy and is important for decarbonizing industry, even if the technology is still in its infancy and is still somewhat expensive. In the project, electrolysers will be powered by 85 MW of solar panels to produce…
