Twelve hydrogen initiatives in the Hamburg Metropolitan Region that have been designated as so-called Important Projects of Common European Interest

Wärtsilä, in conjunction with WEC Energy Group, the Electric Power Research Institute, and Burns & McDonnell, has been hired to conduct hydrogen fuel tests at the A.J. Mihm power plant in Michigan, USA. The initiative supports WEC’s goal of reducing CO2 emissions from its electric producing fleet by 60 percent by the end of 2025, by 80 percent by the end of 2030, and to be carbon neutral by the end of the 2050. This will be one of the first instances in which hydrogen is tested to lower the carbon footprint of a Wartsila-delivered gas-fueled power station. The 55…

TotalEnergies, a big hydrogen player on the horizon?

A big used automobile marketplace recently conducted a study on the issue of “future cars.”

Aberdeen City Council hosted MSPs from the Scottish Parliament’s Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee on a tour of the city’s hydrogen and sustainable energy facilities. Deputy Convener Fiona Hyslop MSP, Jackie Dunbar MSP, Liam Kerr MSP, and Monica Lennon MSP saw the community-led renewable energy project at Donside Hydro, the anaerobic digestion (AD) plant and energy centre at TECA, and the Aberdeen City Hydrogen Energy Storage (ACHES) site in Cove today. The tour is part of a series that enables Committee members to interact with local governments and partners and observe the work being done at clean-energy projects across…

The partnership seeks to see if hydrogen created using wind energy can be produced at sea in a safe

A swift hardening of hydrogen policy might pave the way for the massive Rough storage project to provide short-term energy security by storing vital winter gas supplies. Government laying out a legal framework for storage of the crucial solution to achieving Net Zero might further strengthen the case for the East Yorkshire facility to play a significant role as the Russian invasion of Ukraine proceeds. Should the Putin administration cut off gas supplies to Europe, the market supply from Norway, a country with direct pipeline links to the United Kingdom, might come under pressure. According to reports, a £1.6 billion…

There will be eight hydrogen filling stations before the end of the year.

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…
