Bavaria is making work on the creation of a hydrogen technology application centre (WTAZ), which will include a 5-MW electrolyser and allow enterprises to develop, test, and certify hydrogen technology products for mobility applications. Tuesday, the state’s energy ministry announced that the Bavarian Council of Ministers has approved the purchase of a block of land for the center in Pfeffenhausen, Landshut district. From 2024 on, WTAZ intends to concentrate on the value chain for hydrogen and fuel cell technology for mobility applications. In 2023, a 5-MW electrolyser will begin producing green hydrogen at the site. Daimler Truck AG already intends…

ResearchAndMarkets.com has announced the addition of the “Global Hydrogen Market (by Production Process, Application & Region): Insights & Forecast with Potential Impact of COVID-19 (2022-2026)” study to their offering. The global hydrogen market is projected to reach $194,8 billion in 2026, expanding at a CAGR of 6.09 percent between 2022 and 2026. Several factors contributed to the market’s expansion, including the rising consumption of agricultural fertilizers, the escalating demand in metallurgical industries, the growing global concern over carbon emissions, the rising demand for electricity generation, and the increase in margarine demand. However, the expansion of the market would be hindered…

Information Trends predicts that the implementation of filling stations for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles will produce $9 billion in revenue by 2036 as hydrogen fuel cell vehicle sales grow. The Asia-Pacific area will generate the largest portion of revenue, followed by Europe. According to Haani Kambrani, senior research analyst at Information Trends, the costs of hydrogen stations are falling while their capabilities are expanding. These capabilities include enhanced fuelling pressures, fueling capacity, and hydrogen storage capacity. Ms. Kambrani added that there is a drive to supply these stations with “green” hydrogen, or hydrogen created from renewable energy sources such as…

Johnson Matthey, a global leader in sustainable technologies, forms a strategic alliance with Enapter, the pioneer and market leader in AEM electrolysis. AEM is an electrolyser technology of the next generation that promises to reduce the cost of green hydrogen to the point where it is competitive with fossil fuels. The agreement will involve the combined development of sophisticated components for Enapter’s AEM stacks. Recognizing Johnson Matthey’s unmatched expertise in catalysis, specialized catalysts will also be given. In conjunction with the partnership, JM will invest €20 million (4.31 percent) in Enapter. By expediting the development of AEM electrolysis, both firms…

The $7 million projects will investigate the functioning of hydrogen-fueled turbine components on customized rigs in GE Research’s combustion test facility in Niskayuna.

Galán stated that green hydrogen is now a major European issue as well as an opportunity and that a secure European framework is needed to encourage investment in the technology.

Frontier Energy Limited has picked Alkaline Water Electrolysis as their preferred technique for producing green hydrogen at the Bristol Springs Solar Project (the BSS Project). This technology was chosen due of its reduced price and greater technical durability compared to other accessible options. In addition, the Company has inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with global experts in hydrogen production, Nel Hydrogen and ENGV, to support its hydrogen production plan. Managing Director Mike Young commented, “The global transition towards green hydrogen is evolving at an ever-increasing pace particularly in light of current geopolitics. What is really encouraging is that this…

French gas company Air Liquide inaugurated a $250 million liquid hydrogen facility in North Las Vegas, Nevada, which it stated will serve California and neighboring states. The facility is designed to create around 30 metric tons (mt) per day of liquid hydrogen from landfill methane. It began operations and customer deliveries in April and pilot runs a year prior. The production of Air Liquide’s largest liquid hydrogen plant is sufficient to maintain more than 40,000 hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) on California’s roads. The launch of the plant occurred one month after California Governor Gavin Newsom proposed increasing the…

Norwegian Hydrogen AS is proceeding with its plan to develop green hydrogen production at Hellesylt by the end of the fourth quarter of 2023, two years before the UNESCO-protected Geirangerfjord would be emission-free. “We have now put our plans into action in Hellesylt. Located close to the UNESCO world heritage area of the Geiranger fjord, we are very happy to be able to deliver green hydrogen to our customers in need for a solution for zero-emission energy, years before the deadline for zero-emission-mobility-only in the fjord, which is January 1st 2026”, says Jens Berge CEO in Norwegian Hydrogen. Norwegian Hydrogen…

Valmax will build the balance-of-plant of Elogen’s state-of-the-art electrolyzer plants and electrolyzers locally
