In the field of hydrogen, Bavaria is one of the pioneers in Europe. The focus of a delegation trip to Munich by Lower Austria’s Economic Regional Councilor Jochen Danninger, WKNÖ President Wolfgang Ecker, the state’s business agency ecoplus and companies from Lower Austria was therefore on the topic of hydrogen technology. “Especially in view of the Ukraine war and the energy crisis, which is currently posing major challenges for the whole of Europe, we can learn a lot from our Bavarian neighbors in terms of hydrogen. The federal government’s hydrogen strategy must now be implemented very quickly. Here, we Bavarians…

SB Energy, a subsidiary of SoftBank Group Corp., and Elixir Energy, an Australian energy business, have signed an MOU to collaborate on the research and development of a green hydrogen generation project in Mongolia’s Gobi Desert. SB Energy announced in a press release that the construction of this project would represent the company’s first foray into the green hydrogen industry. SB Energy and Elixir intend to establish a green hydrogen generation project in Mongolia with a capacity of one gigawatt. The Nomgon IX Coal-bed Methane project is located in the South Gobi region of Mongolia and is owned by Elixir.…

An important component of the Bavarian hydrogen strategy is international partnerships with future suppliers of green hydrogen. For this reason, a Bavarian hydrogen delegation with representatives from business, research and politics will visit Chile and Colombia from June 20 to 24. Bavaria’s State Secretary for Economic Affairs Roland Weigert will join the delegation in Colombia on June 22 and meet, among others, Energy Minister Diego Mesa in Bogotá. Weigert: “Green hydrogen is the key resource in the transformation of our economy towards climate neutrality. In Bavaria, we will need large quantities of the climate-friendly energy carrier in the foreseeable future…

SK Gas, a part of South Korea’s second-largest conglomerate, SK Group, has led a $34 million fundraising round for C-Zero. In addition to Breakthrough Energy Ventures, Eni Next, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, and AP Ventures, two new investors joined SK Gas: Engie New Ventures and Trafigura, one of the world’s largest physical commodities trading organizations. The funds will be used to construct C-first Zero’s pilot plant, which is anticipated to go online in the first quarter of 2023.

Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Imperial College London have utilized a photoactive material as a non-toxic alternative to semiconductors for the production of green hydrogen. Due to the importance of hydrogen fuel in the transition to full decarbonisation and the goal of attaining net zero emissions by 2050, it was demonstrated that easily available oxide and carbon-based materials may be used to produce long-lasting, clean hydrogen from water. Considering that the majority of hydrogen is derived from fossil fuels, it is essential to find alternatives, such as devices that capture sunlight and split water. Current earth-abundant light-absorbing materials,…

Thyssenkrupp has decided to postpone the initial public offering

Indian Union Cabinet Minister Raj Kumar Singh stated that rich western economies were vigorously searching for non-fossil fuel sources, such as green hydrogen and green ammonia.
