Generally, we would describe an aircraft with fixed wing, large rotor, tiny rotor, tilting fan, dual-axis propulsion, battery, fuel cell, and so on. Beware: If you think you’ve seen every type of VTOL aircraft (vertical takeoff and landing), you may be quite wrong. Soar, which has eight big fans mounted along the fuselage and a collection of smaller fans built into the fixed wing, is under development. But the primary difference between Soar and other range extenders is the Soar powertrain, which uses liquid hydrogen direct combustion to expand the range. When looking at Soar, it would appear that it…
The Port of Rotterdam Authority has strengthened its partnership with DeltaPort Niederrheinhäfen, allowing this set of inland ports in the northern Ruhr area to serve as a regional hub for importing green hydrogen from Rotterdam. The declaration of intent was signed by both sides. Other signatories were German firms Thyssengas, Eon, Nordfrost, and Kreis Wesel, as well as regional development corporation Kreis Wesel. Green hydrogen can play an important part in the energy transition, which is required to satisfy the Paris Climate Agreement’s goals. Germany, like the Netherlands, will have to import hydrogen if it is to fulfill the predicted…
Axis Energy Ventures India has established a partnership with Greenstat Hydrogen, a Norwegian startup. This relationship allows Axis Energy, based in Hyderabad, to navigate the energy transition while also playing an active role in India’s Hydrogen mission and exploring new prospects across the whole value chain of Hydrogen technology. Axis Energy intends to put up Green Hydrogen production pilot projects using its own renewable energy to achieve this goal. Axis Energy Ventures has completed renewable energy projects totaling more than 1 GW. Hydrogen is already a prominent component of the global energy value chain. The goal today is to return…
Petrofac has formed a strategic alliance with Protium, a leading green hydrogen energy company in the United Kingdom.
Beijing is being urged to install 100GW of green hydrogen electrolyzers by 2030.
AFC Energy recently obtained a contract for the provision of hydrogen fuel cells as part of a collaboration with Urban-Air Port.
For the first time, researchers at the University of Central Florida created a nanoscale material capable of efficiently splitting saltwater into oxygen and hydrogen.
Repsol plans to install the first electrolyzer at its Petronor refinery in Spain’s Basque Country to produce hydrogen. The electrolyzer, with a capacity of 2.5 megawatts, will cost $10.4 million, according to the Spanish oil and gas company. It is scheduled to be operational in the second half of 2022. Repsol aims to be a leader in the renewable hydrogen sector in Spain, with a total capacity of 557 megawatts equivalent installed in 2025, rising to 1.9 gigatonnes in 2030.
Next Hydrogen Solutions, a manufacturer and designer of hydrogen electrolyzers, has opened a new assembly facility in the Greater Toronto Area. “We were fortunate to find such a well-suited and conveniently located space,” said Raveel Afzaal, President and CEO of Next Hydrogen. “This new facility will provide us with an initial 20MW of annual assembly capacity, which can be significantly expanded in a low-cost fashion as we continue to grow. We will be able to better serve our customers by co-locating our technical, engineering, assembly and after-service teams, and collaborating more effectively across business units.” The new 27,000 square foot…
With the construction of a new state-of-the-art production facility in Fresno County, California, Plug Power is expanding its green hydrogen ecosystem to the West Coast.
