The Faentina (Faenza-Florence) railway line was recently included among those where experimentation with hydrogen fueling of trains will start as early as 2023. This was announced by the Table on hydrogen experimentation set up at the General Directorate of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility, which considered the Faenza-Florence, the so-called Train of Dante, as a rail route “potentially susceptible to conversion from diesel to hydrogen.” In Italy, out of more than 16,000 km of railways as many as 4,700 (or nearly 30 percent) are not electrified. A condition that every day sees 1250 rail convoys with diesel traction,…

The Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) partnership is assessing the infrastructure’s technical capacity to transport a blend of natural gas and hydrogen, according to TAP AG. “Hydrogen is essential to attaining a carbon-free future, and TAP is actively investigating this matter. TAP can provide hydrogen mixtures in the future, according to a 2021 hydrogen transportation readiness study. In 2023, the pipes will be evaluated in a globally renowned laboratory so that we may analyze the infrastructure’s suitability to meet future hydrogen demands and capacities. Likewise, the leading manufacturers conduct research on new technology and upgrade existing equipment “TAP AG remarked. The…

Ohmium International has inked an agreement with Tarafert, the developer of a large-scale urea fertilizer and green ammonia manufacturing facility in Mexico, to offer 343 megawatts of green Hydrogen electrolyzers. The delivery of electrolyzers will occur in three phases, with the first 69 megawatts scheduled for delivery in 2025, on time for Tarafert’s project completion. The project’s green Hydrogen will enable the manufacture of up to 200,000 metric tons of green ammonia per year. “Ammonia shortages this year have shown the importance of countries developing their own production that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels. The Tarafert project is among the…

The Department of Energy has given North Carolina A&T State University’s Center for Electrochemical Dynamics and Reactions on Surfaces (CEDARS) a four-year, $10.35 million grant. A&T is the only historically Black college or university to get this funding from the Department of Education. CEDARS is one of 43 universities and national laboratories that will receive over $400 million for the establishment and maintenance of Energy Frontier Research Centers. EFRCs assemble multidisciplinary scientific teams to address scientific obstacles impeding the advancement of energy technologies. The programs are led by 28 colleges, including Stanford University, Michigan State University, MIT, and Georgia Tech,…

TNG is considering the use of hydrogen reductant to minimize carbon emissions at its Mt Peake facility in the Northern Territory. The business announced that it has hired Metso Outotec to investigate the usage of hydrogen reduction within the TIVAN process and the integration of its technology into the TIVAN flowsheet for the Mt Peake project. Metso Outotec conducted successful tests that validated the feasibility of Mt Peake titanomagnetite concentrate for hydrogen reduction. In conjunction with its strategic partner SMS company, TNG is also developing hydrogen production technologies at Mt. Peake. Based on a two-million-ton-per-year operation and a 37-year mine…

Deutsche Bahn is being discussed as a supplier of large quantities of hydrogen for the industry.

The new facility can create 10 tons of green hydrogen annually.

A project to create 9.2 gigawatts of electrical energy from new and renewable sources.

20,000 tonnes must be derived from biomass and trash.

The State decided to raise the manufacturing nation “up our pecking order of emphasis”
