bp welcomed the Australian Government’s announcement of up to AUD70 million in support for the development of a green hydrogen hub at bp’s Kwinana location in Western Australia. The hydrogen hub, which is being created in collaboration with Macquarie Group, has an unmatched combination of existing infrastructure, concentrated industrial demand, and strong links to one of Australia’s largest industrial centers. The hub will feature a minimum 75 MW electrolyzer, hydrogen storage, compression, and truck loading facilities, as well as enhancements to bp’s existing on-site hydrogen pipeline. The hydrogen generated will be used to meet domestic and export demand, including hydrogen…

Koichi Nakagawa, Research Director and Chief Consultant at the Mitsubishi Research Institute (MRI) Middle East, revealed that Mitsubishi is intending to sign a number of memorandums of understanding in Riyadh to deepen its research and consultancy collaborations with Saudi government organizations. These agreements would facilitate the transfer of information and technologies in the energy, agriculture, and health sectors, at a time when Saudi Arabia is seeking to localize industrial and economic competence, he told Asharq Al-Awsat. Daily, the organization completes 1,800 projects for government and private clients, he stated. By doing so, Mitsubishi hopes to pave the way for future…

One of the recurring drawbacks of hydrogen is the cost of producing it, i.e. obtaining it from water or any hydrocarbon, which requires a lot of energy. What if we could obtain hydrogen in huge quantities and without harming the environment? The answer was not in sight: with dual-flux nuclear reactors. This technology is very promising on paper, but has yet to prove its usefulness in the real world. Apparently, it’s all advantages. This design combines two circuits in a nuclear fission core, on the one hand we have a fissile fuel circuit, and on the other hand a rare…

CEMEX advances toward a net-zero future by collaborating with integrated chemicals and energy business Sasol ecoFT and renewable energy provider ENERTRAG on a ground-breaking initiative that will blend CO2 and hydrogen to create sustainable aviation fuel. This project is part of CEMEX’s Future in Action program, which aims to minimize the company’s carbon footprint and contribute to the development of a circular economy. It is also an integral aspect of CEMEX’s master plan to achieve carbon neutrality at its Rüdersdorf cement plant by 2030. The consortium will obtain green hydrogen from ENERTRAG that is entirely derived from wind and sun…

The Brazilian ambassador in Portugal argued that green hydrogen is the best tool to replace the use of oil and coal, considering that the barrel of oil will be replaced by 2050 by the barrel of hydrogen. “We have to reduce dependence on oil and coal and reduce global warming, and green hydrogen is the solution,” said Raimundo Carreiro Silva at the opening of the Forum “The Challenges of Development – The Future of State Relationship”, which runs until Thursday in Lisbon. “It is not possible to fully replace coal and oil for electricity, and green hydrogen is the solution,”…

The German-Brazilian Alliance for Green Hydrogen is launching an innovation program for startups, non-profit institutions and entrepreneurs that seek to leverage the development of green hydrogen in Brazil. The first call for applications for the program is open until April 22. The project should have two more editions between the second half of 2022 and the first half of 2023. The proposals, which should be submitted on the Alliance Brazil-Germany website, should cover logistics solutions, production, and application of the product in industry, with technical support and financial resources in certain categories. According to the Ministry of Mines and Energy,…

Renewable energy mega-investment will be presented in Sines, with Dutch and Danish investment to produce hydrogen and green ammonia. Sines will be the stage next Friday for the launch of a mega-investment in hydrogen and ammonia to be produced from renewable sources, a project that will attract total investment of more than 1.3 billion euros for Portugal, led by the Portuguese-Dutch company Madoqua Ventures and supported by the Danish Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Dutch Power 2X. The launch of the project for the production of green hydrogen and green ammonia (or ammonia) in the industrial and logistics zone of Sines…
