Both the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and the Stark Area Regional Transit Authority (SARTA), two Northeast Ohio-based innovators in future mobility, have announced a collaboration to test intelligent tire sensors and prototype tires on SARTA’s fleet of diesel and zero emission hydrogen fuel cell-powered (HFC) buses, respectively. As a result of sensors installed on the car, Goodyear’s SightLine mobility cloud receives real-time data on tires’ condition. Tire performance and potential vehicle troubles can be spotted early thanks to unique algorithms that analyze the data fast and provide relevant information. For SARTA to cut operational costs, decrease fleet downtime, and…

Brighton & Hove and Metrobus have placed an order for 20 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, which will be delivered in June 2022, marking the Go-Ahead Group’s first order of hydrogen powered buses. As part of a deal that could be the largest of its type in Europe, the Go-Ahead Group has inked a contract to purchase its first hydrogen-powered buses. For the Fastway lines in Crawley, Redhill, and Gatwick Airport area, Brighton and Hove and Metrobus have bought 20 Wrightbus hydrogen fuel cell vehicles from Northern Ireland. For the first time in the company’s more than 6,000-vehicle fleet, the GB…

“Project Merida” and an order for a Pre-Study centered on how the Plagazi Process may recycle plastic waste into pure green hydrogen have been announced by Plagazi. In order to protect their identity, the end-customer requested to remain anonymous for the time being. Construction of a Plagazi Process plant can get underway once the Pre-Study is completed in Q4 of 2021. The purpose of a Pre-Study is to help the client determine whether or not a Plagazi Process plant can be implemented within the parameters set out by the client. Pre-Study work serves as the foundation for the Basic Engineering…

Pilot Energy, APA Group and Warrego Energy have formed a consortium to undertake and jointly fund Pilot’s Mid West Blue Hydrogen and CCS Feasibility Study. The Feasibility Study is forecast to complete in the first quarter of CY2022. Blue Hydrogen projects require expertise and collaboration from across the energy industry. Pilot has established the Consortium, which represents the key components of a BlueHydrogen project: • APA Group – Infrastructure• Pilot Energy – Carbon Management• Warrego Energy – Natural gas supply The Consortium will participate in and jointly fund the Feasibility Study with a focus on the Blue Hydrogen technology, regional…

Patriot and CAC-H2 have engaged Liberty Energy Capital to work as advisors to raise money for working capital in pre-IPO funding.

Smoltek has achieved proof-of-concept for high-performing, nanofiber-based cell material for PEM-electrolyzers.

The gas-powered engines from MAN Energy Solutions are hydrogen-ready and can operate in stationary mode with a hydrogen content of up to 25% by volume in a gas-fuel mix. It is now possible to significantly cut CO2 emissions by using hydrogen in the company’s gas engines. EUGINE’s H2-readiness standard requires MAN gas engines to achieve the Level B requirements of the EUGINE standard. Gunnar Stiesch, from MAN Energy Solutions, claimed that “flexible and decentralized, gas-fired power plants will play a vital role for a secure power supply on the route toward 100% renewable energy.” Future possibilities for hydrogen fueling up…

With the help of the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), MTU Aero Engines has embarked into an innovative partnership to explore the possibilities for future certification of what MTU terms a “flying fuel cell” (FFC).

In order to remove pathogens, wastewater treatment is essential, but it requires a lot of energy. Researchers from WMG, University of Warwick, have been able to overcome the challenge of treating it more sustainably by employing recycled carbon fiber mats to manufacture hydrogen from waste water.

The Olga project has announced that an electrolyzer and related storage and distribution equipment will be installed at Malpensa airport to assure the supply of green hydrogen. Malpensa has the potential to become Italy’s first major center for the production and use of green hydrogen between 2023 and 2024. A total of €3.5 million has been provided by the EU to Olga’s Italian business partners, with €1.54 million going to the Milanese airport company SEA and €1.1 million to SNAM. Interuniversity Consortium ICOOR, the Lombardy Ticino Valley Park (Parco Lombardo Valle del Ticino), the Cotton and Clothing Textile Center (Consorzio…
