Hyvia, a 50/50 joint venture between Renault and US-based Plug Power recently opened a new production facility in Flins (FR) to build fuel cells and peripherals for hydrogen mobility. These are needed for the hydrogen-powered vans that Renault plans to roll out before the end of the year. But possibly even more interesting is the starting point Hyvia is using here. In fact, Hyvia not only wants to power vans with hydrogen. It also offers entrepreneurs the possibility of generating this gas themselves. In this way, they can operate independently of the grid. In itself, this idea is far from…

Eneco joins the green hydrogen consortium NortH2 as an investment partner. Green hydrogen is an important step in the implementation of Eneco’s One Planet Plan, which envisages being climate neutral by 2035, for Eneco and its customers. Part of the plan is to phase out natural gas at customers’ premises and in electricity and heat production. In addition to NortH2, Eneco plans to further invest in green hydrogen. With NortH2 hydrogen can be made available on a large scale in the Netherlands in the future. Eneco sees ample opportunities in NortH2 to make its production and supply of industrial customers…

The location formerly occupied by the coal-fired Nanticoke power station could be developed into a new hydrogen production facility. Atura Power and Imperial Oil have announced plans to investigate the site’s suitability for such a project. This spring, the study is planned to begin. It will concentrate on the business and technical elements of hydrogen facility development. Atura is a subsidiary of Ontario Power Generation, which owns the old coal-fired power plant’s property. “We realize the importance of leadership, inventiveness, and teamwork in assisting Canada in achieving its goal of net zero emissions by 2050,” said Jody Grant, manager of…

Boston Materials (Boston, Mass., U.S.) a high-performance materials firm, has announced the release of ZRT lightweight bipolar plates in partnership with specialty materials manufacturer Arkema. Boston Materials states that with the debut of this new product, it is disrupting both the expanding hydrogen fuel cell business and the industry’s cost and weight targets by employing ZRT composite films to create substantially lighter bipolar plates produced entirely of recycled carbon fiber. With hydrogen rapidly becoming one of the most environmentally friendly options for powering industries that rely on fossil fuels, particularly warehouse automation, drones, long-haul trucking, and aviation, these lightweight bipolar…

Thanks to a $5 million injection from the Palaszczuk government, Gladstone will be home to one of Australia’s first renewable hydrogen-powered passenger ferries.

The purpose of safety measures is to control known threats to achieve an optimal level of risk. According to ISO/IEC Guide 51:2014, a hazard is defined as a potential source of harm to people, property, or the environment.

RWE, the German energy company, plans to invest 30 million euros in a hydrogen electrolysis test facility at its gas power plant in Lingen, Lower Saxony.

The project focuses on hydrogen in heavy-duty road transport and is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management’s DKTI transport plan

Around 45 scientists would then have access to rooms and labs to undertake research on hydrogen, a prospective energy source. A test hall for related research is also in the works.
