MIT researchers have discovered a relatively simple technique to enhance the lifespan of these devices: adjusting the pH of the system. This research could serve as a catalyst for a variety of technologies, including fuel cells, which are essential for storing solar and wind energy. Fuel and electrolysis cells comprised of substances called as solid metal oxides are intriguing for numerous reasons. In the electrolysis mode, for instance, they are particularly effective at converting electricity from a renewable source into a storable fuel such as hydrogen or methane that can be used in the fuel cell mode to create electricity…

Qatar aims to construct a $1 billion facility.

The factory is anticipated to start manufacturing fuel cells in 2026.

Fluxys hopes to transform Belgium into a hub for the import and transit of green ammonia across Europe.

The president said that, if the deputies definitively approve it, he will carefully examine the proposal.

In Colombia, the production cost of green hydrogen today would be between US$4 and US$8 per kilo, compared to the production cost of gray hydrogen, which is between one and two dollars per kilo. Worldwide efforts to reduce global warming, in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement, depend to a large extent on replacing fossil fuels with renewable energies; the challenge is significant. However, the latter will not be able to fully meet the needs of industries such as shipping, aviation, and cement and steel production. Major technological breakthroughs are required. Meeting energy demand will require fuels such…

Hyundai Motor Group participated in ‘H2 Meet 2022’, the largest hydrogen industry-specific event in Korea at KINTEX, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do. At the event, Hyundai Motor Group showed off a hydrogen-powered electric bus, a hydrogen-powered electric police bus, a hydrogen-powered electric truck, a cleaning car, a water sprinkler, and other special cleaning vehicles, as well as a hydrogen-powered multicopter drone, an Amvision Tug vehicle with a hydrogen fuel cell, and a model of a hydrogen-based steelmaking process that doesn’t release carbon into the air. 240 hydrogen-related companies and institutes from 16 countries will show goods and technology related to hydrogen mobility, hydrogen…

Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg, two southern German states, have formed an agreement to promote the development of a hydrogen economy in the region and boost their standing as centers for hydrogen and fuel cell technologies. In the coming years, the two nations will each contribute up to EUR 500 million (USD 501.7m) to research and development (R&D) projects and the establishment of a hydrogen economy. Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg intend to boost collaborative initiatives in the field of manufacturing technologies for electrolyser components and investigate a further expansion of their cooperation for the creation of a trans-regional hydrogen filling station network through…

Australian Research Council has awarded $1.2 million to the University of Wollongong on the south coast of New South Wales for three projects, one of which is the continuing development of high efficiency electrochemical cells for green hydrogen. Professor Gerhard Swiegers, who discovered that green hydrogen could be produced up to 20% more efficiently using capillary-fed electrolysis, is leading the initiative. This technique is currently being commercialized by Wollongong-based startup Hysata, where Professor Swiegers serves as Chief Technical Officer. Professor Sweigers states that the university’s grant-funded initiative will investigate the capillary-fed electrochemical cell design in the facilitation of various electro-energy…

Two research teams from the University of Sydney have been given over $1 million to collaborate with industry on urban rewilding and hydrogen embrittlement projects. The projects were awarded under the Linkage Projects initiative of the Australian Research Council (ARC), which encourages national and international research partnerships between scholars and business, industry, community organizations, and government supported research bodies. Projects are sponsored for a period of five years. Professor Emma Johnston AO, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research), commended the grant recipients on their success. “Congratulations to our successful recipients, whose research is addressing issues of vital importance to Australia, including making urban…
