Wishing to accelerate its move away from diesel, La Poste has announced that its first hydrogen-powered truck will be in operation by the end of 2022. A forerunner in new energies, La Poste is speeding up its use of hydrogen. After having tested several examples of the Renault Kangoo hydrogen by Symbio a few years ago, the French group is getting ready to integrate its very first hydrogen truck. It will be based at the Thillay platform in the Val-d’Oise region of France and will be powered by green hydrogen from a mobile station supplied by TotalEnergies. Also part of…

Imported green hydrogen could already be cheaper than locally produced blue and gray hydrogen by 2024. That is the opinion of the American Rocky Mountains Institute (RMI). According to the NGO, green hydrogen could also be the key for Europe to say goodbye to Russian gas. The RMI projects that imported green hydrogen will cost about $3.75 per kilo in 2024. By 2030, the price will have dropped to $2 per kilogram. The production costs of blue hydrogen are much higher, according to the research firm: $4.60 per kilo in 2024 and $2.50 per kilo in 2030. The most expensive…

Will military vehicles soon be running on hydrogen? The Dutch Ministry of Defense is currently investigating that possibility. Over a hundred delegates are coming to the Johannes Postkazerne in Havelte today to discuss the options. “If you look at the situation in the world right now, many conflicts stem from questions about energy: energy consumption and the availability of energy,” explains Colonel Erik Ensing of the Ministry of Defense. “Secondly, of course, we have to deal with objectives from different environmental treaties. We want to be less dependent on polluting energy and in that way also do our part.” By…

Scotland could be the first region to store renewable hydrogen in underground tunnels designed for the purpose. The project is the result of a collaboration between Gravitricity and Arup to deliver the feasibility study and the design, after the Department of Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy awarded a £300,000 funding pot. The Edinburgh-based energy storage company and the environmental consulting firm will also seek to identify a viable location for the subterranean hydrogen storage facility. In addition to gravitational energy storage and interseasonal heat, according to the partners, the design will also include gravity energy storage. Gravitricity has invented a…

A commercial-scale green hydrogen storage technology will increase the energy security and dependability of the electrical grid in Orkney. H2GO’s intelligent hydrogen storage technology could remove approximately 225,000 gallons of diesel used by homeowners for home heat and power and the resulting carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions over its 30-year lifetime. It could displace up to 7,500 gallons of diesel and 90 tons of carbon dioxide every year. The innovative energy management system has earned £4.3million in funding from the department of business, energy, and industrial strategy’s (BEIS) £1billion net zero innovation portfolio, which aims to foster innovation in the hydrogen…

The Tyseley Ammonia to Green Hydrogen Project will receive around £6.7 million from the Department of Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) under the Net Zero Innovation Portfolio Low Carbon Hydrogen Supply 2 Competition. The project intends to design, construct, commission, and operate the largest and most efficient ammonia-to-hydrogen conversion unit in the world. The demonstration unit is located at Tyseley Energy Park, a vital energy and resource centre in the West Midlands, and is based on H2SITE’s revolutionary technology. It is part of the UK government’s pledge to enable 10GW of hydrogen production capacity by 2030, with forecasts estimating…

The companies will develop a 10-megawatt green hydrogen plant on the grounds of Açu in Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro state, according to a memorandum of understanding. The factory is expected to be finished in 2025.

DOE will collaborate with private firms to investigate advanced technological options that might make hydrogen a more accessible and efficient energy source.

By 2025-26, Bosch India plans to deliver hydrogen-powered automobiles to the country.

The experimental project, which will be located at Vattenfall’s Offshore Wind Farm in Aberdeen Bay, will have an output of 8 MW and be capable of producing enough hydrogen per day to fuel a hydrogen bus for a journey of 24,000 kilometers.
