Green Hydrogen H2 News

At the Quad leaders’ summit in Tokyo last week, among the numerous topics discussed, the four partners emphasized the significance of common energy supply chains. The leaders concurred on the significance of “clean energy cooperation” in “clean hydrogen” in particular. Hydrogen is likely to receive more attention as a result of the new Australian government’s commitment to combating climate change, especially given Australia’s links with Japan. Even before the change in government, Japan and Australia collaborated on the development of clean energy. In April of this year, a consortium of Japanese firms, including Kawasaki Heavy Industries, J-Power, Iwatani Corporation, Marubeni…

The Elektra, the world’s first hydrogen-powered push boat (towboat), was inaugurated in Berlin. Two years were required for the shipbuilder Hermann Barthel and its partners to create this revolutionary warship. The ship is designed to maximize the usage of on-board energy. In addition to providing propulsion, the hydrogen power system provides cabin and wheelhouse heating. The waste heat from the fuel cells is used for continuous water cooling, and a heat pump is used to heat the cabins. With 750 kilograms of high-pressure compressed hydrogen on board and a battery capacity of around 2,500 kilowatt hours, the push boat can…

The government of South Australia has announced plans to move through with new laws that, according to the administration, will expedite the production of hydrogen in the state. Premier Peter Malinauskas said in a statement presented at the Adelaide Hydrogen Conference that the new dedicated hydrogen legislation will license and control the production of hydrogen in South Australia. The legislation will give a single entry point into government for licensing and regulating hydrogen generation projects, similar to what the oil, gas, and geothermal industries in South Australia have enjoyed, according to the release. The new law will cover the production…

Aurora Energy Research asserts in a recent analysis that solar and wind power plants paired with electrolyzers might maximize the profitability of green hydrogen projects. In terms of decarbonization and future energy supplies, green hydrogen is regarded as indispensable. The hydrogen economy is still in its infancy, but according to the German government, generation capacity will reach 10 GW by 2030. According to the German consulting firm Aurora Energy Research, hydrogen projects with a total output of 21 GW have been declared in Germany, but only a portion of them have been implemented. The analysts anticipate that by 2050, the…
