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…

This Wednesday, a historic announcement was made regarding the energy future of the Province of Chubut and also of the whole country. Marcos Bulgheroni, CEO of Pan American, made the announcement, which was later highlighted by the mayor of Comodoro Rivadavia, Juan Pablo Luque. Through his social networks, the local mayor celebrated the construction of a large-scale wind farm that will produce hydrogen in Cerro Dragón. “We celebrate that in the area where oil was discovered in the country, they are betting on renewable energies, in a region where its potential in this activity has been demonstrated”, said Luque. Subsequently,…

In many cases, the conversion of industry to hydrogen is apparently less sustainable than previously assumed. This is the conclusion of a study by the Forschungsstelle für Energiewirtschaft (FfE) commissioned by the nature conservation organization Nabu and reported by the “Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland”. In it, the potentials of a hydrogen economy were examined with regard to its climate balance and environmental protection. “Hydrogen is necessary to achieve climate targets and deep decarbonization,” the study states, but at the same time the authors also write that hydrogen is not low in emissions per se, since sustainability depends strongly on the origin and…

Werner Enterprises and Cummins Inc. signed a letter of intent to purchase 500 15-liter hydrogen internal combustion engines from Cummins once they become available. Werner Enterprises wants to test and integrate Cummins’ 15-liter natural gas and X15H hydrogen engines, both part of Cummins’ fuel-agnostic platform, into their fleet, the firms announced earlier this year. “At Werner, we’re committed to a 55 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2035 because we recognize the important role our sustainability efforts play,” said Werner’s Chairman, President and CEO, Derek Leathers. “Our customers are showing increased interest in more sustainable choices in the marketplace,…
