Africa may be able to supply hydrogen, a low-cost, low-carbon energy source, to the entire world.

Hosted by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), ADIPEC is the world’s most influential gathering for energy industry professionals.

As stakeholders advocate for the diversification of energy sources, Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG) Limited announced yesterday that the company is already conducting studies on carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS), hydrogen electrification, and determining how they can support the nation’s energy transition journey. Although Nigeria has identified gas as a transitional energy, the Russia-Ukraine situation has encouraged several nations and operators to investigate prospects in hydrogen and other renewable alternatives. In its 21 years of existence, the company reported delivering over 5,400 cargoes to customers around the globe. The first shipment of NLNG was shipped from Bonny Island in…

The Rhine-Main region in the center of Germany is looking for solutions for the energy transition. A waste-to-wheels study by Tractebel shows that waste-to-energy plants can cost-effectively produce green hydrogen to decarbonize transport. As part of the HyExperts project MH2Regio, Tractebel experts developed a strategy for a regional hydrogen infrastructure in Frankfurt am Main. The federal government supported the project with funds from the HyLand funding program The focus was on the Nordweststadt waste-to-energy plant. In their study, the experts determined a technically and economically optimal overall concept for a complete hydrogen infrastructure – from electrolysis and transport to the…

In order for eco-friendly hydrogen to compete with conventional hydrogen, production prices must decrease, but transporting the ultralight fuel in large quantities remains a technical challenge. Gulf countries are spending extensively in the development of green hydrogen plants, which are fueled by solar and wind energy and use electrolysers to separate water into oxygen and hydrogen. Hydrogen is a carbon-free energy source, but the typical way of manufacturing hydrogen from natural gas or coal releases massive volumes of carbon dioxide (CO2) – according to the International Energy Agency, the industry produces more CO2 annually than Britain and Indonesia combined. The…

DNV, an independent energy expert and assurance provider, will lead the HyTech consortium alongside Progressive Energy, Frontier Economics, Enertek International, Flex Process, and Dave Lander Consulting to assist BEIS (Department of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy) in determining the viability, costs, and benefits of using 100% hydrogen for heating in the UK. The government of the United Kingdom is collaborating with industry, regulators, and others to carry out a variety of research, development, and testing programs to evaluate the viability, costs, and benefits of utilizing 100% hydrogen for heating. This work incorporates a pioneering community trial program. The outcomes of…

Ports of Stockholm is investing in hydrogen and initiating the procurement process for a hydrogen fueling station at Stockholm Norvik Port. Hydrogen fuel contributes to the environmental goal of eliminating fossil fuels from truck operations by 2025. Ports of Stockholm is initiating the procurement procedure for a hydrogen fueling station in order to recharge the work vehicles at Stockholm Norvik Port. The acquisition will involve delivery and management of a station for refueling automobiles with hydrogen, as well as a hydrogen distribution deal. “Hydrogen will play a crucial role in converting to fossil fuel-free transport, both on land and at…

The supply of green hydrogen from renewable electricity will remain scarce in the short term and uncertain in the long term, predicts a new study published in Nature Energy. Green hydrogen and derived clean fuels are especially valuable for achieving climate neutrality. They can replace fossil fuels in industry or long-distance transportation where direct electrification is not feasible. However, even if production capacities grow as fast as wind and solar power, the renewable champions in growth rate, green hydrogen supply will be less than 1% of final energy globally by 2035, while the European Union could reach the 1% mark…

The project to start up a green hydrogen plant in As Pontes has received the green light. It will be the first plant of its kind in the autonomous community of Galicia and will have an annual production capacity of up to 16,000 tons of green hydrogen. Spain will have a new green hydrogen plant. The project, which has just received the green light, will be located in the autonomous community of Galicia. The official announcement was made by Alfonso Rueda, President of Galicia, who announced that his government has given the go-ahead to “Galicia’s first strategic industrial project”. A…

The delivery of the electrolyzers will take place in three stages, with the first 69 megawatts arriving in 2025.
