The Kawas Gas blending project of the state-owned NTPC will combine hydrogen with piped natural gas (PNG) for home use. This is the first project of its sort in the country to combine hydrogen and PNG. Initially, 5 percent of the overall gas supply will be blended with hydrogen, and this percentage will progressively climb to 20 percent. The gas would be delivered to 200 homes in the Aditya Nagar residential colony of NTPC Kawas in Hazira, the public sector power giant said in a statement, adding that this will reduce NTPC’s annual carbon emissions by 200 kg. Moreover, the…

The president of the company says that Brazil has everything to be one of the main protagonists of this race and can come out ahead of neighboring countries due to large-scale production of renewable energy. Starting next year, Brazil may start competing in the global green hydrogen market and White Martins is preparing for this moment, says the company’s president for South America, Gilney Bastos. In an interview with Broadcast, the executive said that the country has everything to be one of the main players in this race and may come out ahead of neighboring countries due to large-scale production…

The train is a Renfe commuter unit in which a new electric generation system has been installed based on the hybridization of energy from hydrogen cells and batteries, integrating in turn with the traction system already existing in the vehicle. Thus, it is one of the first railway demonstrators of a bimode vehicle that will be able to run in electric mode on electrified infrastructure and in hybrid mode on sections without catenary. After the static tests of the train at the CAF Zaragoza plant, the dynamic tests of the train will be carried out at the CAF Zaragoza plant.…

Carburos Metálicos has successfully concluded its participation in a pioneering initiative to accompany the ceramic and glass manufacturing industry on its path towards decarbonization, in line with the national and European objectives that set the year 2050 as the deadline for achieving an economy with a neutral balance in CO2 emissions. One of the alternatives available to the ceramics sector to move towards this goal is the transition to natural gas and hydrogen mixtures in ceramic tile firing kilns, as well as in frit melting kilns. The Institute of Ceramic Technology (ITC-AICE) of Castellón, a reference in this field in…

Changan is launching the first hydrogen-powered car to go into mass production in China. Marketed under the Deep Blue brand, it promises up to 700 kilometers of autonomy. Already known for their appetite for electric cars, Chinese carmakers are gradually moving into hydrogen. Based in Chongqing, in the southwest of the country, Changan is one of the first Chinese manufacturers to present a hydrogen car ready for mass production. Called the SL03 and marketed under the Deep Blue brand, the mid-size sedan is 4.82 m long, 1.89 m wide and 1.48 m high (with a 2.9 m wheelbase). Up to…

The Lower Bavarian market town of Pfeffenhausen is ambitiously driving forward the expansion of renewables in the town with citizens’ energy cooperatives. This commitment secured the municipality the contract for the construction of a hydrogen center and government subsidies of over 100 million euros.From 2023, local renewable electricity from Markt Pfeffenhausen will be used to produce green hydrogen. Green hydrogen from Markt Pfeffenhausen Alongside Chemnitz, Duisburg and a North German consortium, Markt Pfeffenhausen also successfully applied to become a site for a national hydrogen center in 2021. This is associated with federal funding of 72.5 million euros. The project is…

Over the next five years, there may be a significant increase in the number of hydrogen-powered vehicles in use worldwide. There are already approximately 60,000 hydrogen-powered automobiles on the road. According to a new estimate, this number will reach one million by 2027’s end. The analysis from Juniper Research identifies hydrogen vehicles as a potential option to battery electric automobiles (EVs). It was discovered that the possibility for increased range and rapid refueling was superior to that of electric vehicles, hence alleviating customer concerns around EV ownership. Hydrogen vehicles have advantages over electric vehicles. The paper cited a number of…

What is the hydrogen potential in the Havelland district and how do the many actors there connect? To answer these problems, the district has commissioned a feasibility study to be conducted by the Reiner Lemoine Institute (RLI), the IAV Ingenieurgesellschaft Auto und Verkehr, Consulting4Drive, and the Institute for Climate Protection, Energy, and Mobility. Tuesday marked the start of the ‘H2VL’ initiative with a digital launch event. The BMDV finances the development of the Havelland district as a hydrogen zone under the National Innovation Program for Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology (NIP2). Coordinated by NOW GmbH and implemented by Project Management…

Hanwha Solutions has joined Shell’s efforts to construct a broad infrastructure for hydrogen refueling in California. The Korean firm will expedite California’s energy transition and decarbonization ambitions by supplying the oil giant with high-pressure hydrogen tanks for transport inside its network of stations. Hanwha Cimarron, the hydrogen tank manufacturing business of Hanwha Solutions, announced that it has signed a purchase order with Shell to provide its Type IV high-pressure Neptune hydrogen tanks. The vessels with a capacity of 2,000 liters and carbon fiber reinforcement can store hydrogen at a pressure of 517 bar, the greatest pressure level among Type IV…
