It would offer financial aid for the development and maintenance of hydrogen refueling stations.

EverWind Fuels has filed for a provincial environmental assessment for a green hydrogen facility at a former fossil fuel transshipment station in Point Tupper, Cape Breton Island’s westernmost point. According to SaltWire, the president of EverWind, Trent Vichie, stated that the first phase of the project would convert the terminal to accept wind-generated electricity from the provincial grid, use the green electrons to produce hydrogen, and then convert the hydrogen into green ammonia for export. Saltwire reports that Vichie stated his company has secured $1 billion to complete the first phase of the project and get it into production by…

A non-governmental organization has warned of the risks of global warming posed by hydrogen leaks, from manufacturing to usage. Hydrogen, as an alternative to XXL batteries and charging stations, is still in the race to offer energy in the event that the electric motor is ready to assert itself in Europe. This method has the benefit of restoring full autonomy in a few minutes, the time required to refuel at the station. As evidence of the interest in fuel cells, numerous manufacturers are developing this sort of propulsion. BMW, for instance, has just announced the release of many hydrogen-powered vehicles.…

Hyphen Hydrogen Energy (Hyphen) is making progress in its discussions with the Namibian government as it draws closer to signing the Implementation Agreement for its proposed $10 billion Namibian green hydrogen project before the end of the year. Since its recent announcement at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in May of this year, in which it outlined an ambitious timeframe for the realization of this transformative undertaking, significant progress has been achieved. Cabinet approved the composition and appointment of the Government Negotiations Team created to finalize the Implementation Agreement, as well as the projected schedule for its signature, during its…

Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has inaugurated a Green Hydrogen Plant at its AM Naik Heavy Engineering Complex in Hazira, Gujarat. Mr. Shrikant Madhav Vaidya, Chairman of Indian Oil Corporation Limited, inaugurated the plant. Today marks the beginning of Green Hydrogen production via an alkaline electrolysis process. The plant will generate 45 kg of green hydrogen per day, which will be consumed exclusively by the Hazira manufacturing complex. The Green Hydrogen Plant is intended to have an electrolyser capacity of 800 kW, with Alkaline (380 kW) and PEM (420 kW) technologies, and will be powered by a rooftop solar plant with…

Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) announced the groundbreaking for a revolutionary advanced hydrogen generation facility at SunLine Transit Agency in Thousand Palms, California. The H2 SilverSTARS project will manufacture hydrogen from renewable natural gas (RNG) and fuel SunLine’s 17 hydrogen fuel cell electric buses. This demonstration project has the ability to offer clean hydrogen at any place next to a natural gas pipeline, thereby accelerating California’s climate and clean air goals and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The demonstration will test the technology developed at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory for STARS. Utilizing a combustion-free method, this technique produces lower greenhouse…

Bord na Móna announced this week that its Cloncreen Wind Farm in Edenderry was commencing operations, and suggested that it was also moving forward with a number of other prospective renewable energy projects in the region. These include the installation of a pilot hydrogen plant within its existing Mountlucas Wind Farm in Offaly. Bord na Móna Powergen Limited submitted a planning application for a 2MW pilot-scale Hydrogen Electrolysis Plant in Mountlucas at the end of July. The facility would consist of three high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks, one hydrogen compression system, one generator, two substation or transformer structures, and an underground…

Utilizing hydrogen as a source of anti-CO2 energy to decarbonize the economy and industrial operations. The National Energy Situation Report was compiled by the Energy Department-Directorate General Infrastructure and Security of the Ministry of Ecological Transition (Mite) and an ad hoc working group comprised of institutional and industry representatives. Europe plans to reach 40 gigawatts (Gw) by 2030, with a 14 percent contribution to the energy mix by 2050. It is mentioned that the Italian Plan aspires for a capacity of 5 GW by 2030. According to the Report, which was authored by the Bank of Italy, Enea, Istat, Eni,…

The Marsh brokerage firm, a division of Marsh & McLennan, is introducing the first specialist insurance in the world for hydrogen energy projects.

With the success of its Uber Green service in Germany, the renowned VTC platform plans to expedite the nationwide deployment of hydrogen vehicles. Uber Green enables users to reserve rides in electric, hybrid, and hydrogen-powered vehicles. In Germany, the service was initially introduced in Munich in 2018 before progressively expanding to other locations. Four years later, Uber reports a satisfactory initial evaluation and has announced plans to increase its fleet of environmentally friendly vehicles. On the topic of hydrogen technology, platform partner “Safedriver Ennoo” has been testing fuel cell vehicles for several years. The company boasts the largest hydrogen fleet…
