The partnership between Enel X and Nuova Solmine has taken the first step in capturing excess thermal energy and converting it into electricity without emitting CO2. The goal of the project is to design and build the world’s first Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) plant in a sulphuric acid production facility. Cogenio, an Enel X partner company, will help pay for the project. “The collaboration with Nuova Solmine is an example of Enel X’s ongoing commitment to raising the level of sustainability of its partners,” said Augusto Raggi, Head of Enel X Italia. “The energy transition requires the creation of new…

Hydrogen buses in California have already logged more than 5.5 million miles of service. There are 76 hydrogen fuel cell buses on the road in California, and another 76 are in the process of being bought, so there will be even more. SunLine Transit in the Coachella Valley and AC Transit in the East Bay are two of the best in the country at using fuel cell and battery electric technologies to cut down on pollution. There are 21 fuel cell buses on the road now, and five more are in the works. California’s AC Transit has 39 fuel cell…

Offshore Energies UK, the offshore energy industry’s most important trade group, began its next phase on February 14, 2022. It will now be called Offshore Energies UK, and it will help its members in hydrogen, carbon capture and storage, and offshore wind. In December 2021, Offshore Energies UK changed its name to Offshore Energies UK after a year-long strategic review was approved by its members. People who belong to Offshore Energies UK will keep making the oil and gas that the UK will need to keep its energy security and jobs and the economy going. Some of the most cutting-edge…

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…
