HRS, a European designer and manufacturer of hydrogen refueling stations and a pioneer in hydrogen mobility, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Burckhardt Compression. HRS and Burckhardt Compression plan to strengthen their partnership by collaborating on the development of high-capacity hydrogen refueling stations for the heavy-duty mobility market (buses, trucks, and ports), as well as light-utility vehicles (taxi fleets) and future opportunities. Hydrogen-Refueling-Solutions (HRS), formerly TSM, is a pioneer in hydrogen mobility, having been founded in 2004. The Company has been committed to reducing transportation emissions for over ten years as a European designer and manufacturer of hydrogen refueling…

Hydrogen is seen as a key component of the global plan to achieve a net-zero future. To combat climate change, Tenaris is committed to lowering its carbon footprint and developing a portfolio of energy-related products. Tenaris’ line pipe technology team has conducted an experimental activity to qualify medium and large diameter pipes up to X70 grade for high-pressure gaseous hydrogen transportation with a hydrogen content of up to 100 percent at 200 bars in support of these actions. Pressurized pipelines are considered a relevant solution for transporting molecular energy from the point of production or storage to the point of…

Xingshunda New Energy Technology, a joint venture between China Yuchai and Beijing Yuchai, has been incorporated in the Daxing District of Beijing. Joint venture Beijing Yuchai Xingshunda New Energy Technology has been established with a registered capital of RMB 10 million by the company and its subsidiary Yuchai Xin-Lan New Energy Power Technology and Beijing Xing Shun Da Bus through Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Limited. For the Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei markets, a joint venture between the two companies will accelerate the development, manufacturing, and sale of fuel cell powertrain systems and core fuel cell power system components.

At Unilever’s Port Sunlight factory in the North West, 100 percent hydrogen was used to power the production of personal care and home care products. The demonstration, led by Progressive Energy, is part of the larger ‘HyNet Industrial Fuel Switching’ Program. As soon as low carbon hydrogen is available from the HyNet project, the Program will provide evidence to enable major manufacturing sites to switch to it. Unilever’s Port Sunlight factory, which has been producing household brands and products since 1888, is an important part of the North West’s industrial heritage. Unilever products such as TRESemme and Persil will be…

SFC Energy and Wacker Chemie have signed a letter of intent for renewable methanol distribution. WACKER plans to supply SFC Energy with up to 2,000 metric tons of methanol from the RHYME Bavaria project planned for its Burghausen site beginning in 2025, according to the letter. SFC Energy plans to offer this methanol as a low-emission fuel for use in its customers’ methanol fuel cells. As a decentralized power supply, these cells are used in private, commercial, and governmental applications. A 20-megawatt electrolysis plant is being built as part of the RHYME Bavaria project. This plant will use renewable electricity…

Plagazi has hired PowerCell Sweden to conduct a feasibility study to see if PowerCell’s innovative fuel cell technology could be used in Köping Hydrogen Park. PowerCell Sweden provides the most compact and robust fuel cell systems on the market, which can be used as a sustainable backup generator for Köping Hydrogen Park or as a converting mechanism to allow Plagazi to sell green electricity generated from green hydrogen directly to the power grid while also providing district heating to Köping. The collaboration of two leading green energy innovators has the potential to further evolve the market and combine the two…

As the industry leaders sign a letter of intent (LOI) on a record-breaking offtake agreement for green fuels in the maritime industry, Ørsted will develop a Power-to-X facility on the US Gulf Coast to fuel Maersk’s newly ordered fleet of 12 methanol-powered vessels. The global maritime industry’s greenhouse gas emissions have increased dramatically over the last two decades, accounting for roughly 2% of all global energy-related emissions. The maritime sector urgently requires new zero-emission fuels at scale to reduce its climate impact as the world races to combat climate change. A.P. Moller – Maersk and Ørsted have now signed a…

Independence Hydrogen, a veteran-owned and operated supplier of gaseous hydrogen solutions, has been purchased by Suburban Propane Partners for $30.0 million.
