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…

Storage, batteries, hydrogen: when can they replace natural gas as a backup technology?

Green hydrogen from renewable energies should only be competitive in a few years. But the Ukraine war is clearly accelerating the change. Because hydrogen from renewable energies was more than twice as expensive as hydrogen from fossil natural gas, experts did not expect a breakthrough for this future technology for another five to ten years. Since the price of gas has risen to a new record level, however, sustainable hydrogen is now paying for itself much faster than expected – and could thus significantly accelerate the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy. “The change is already here. Wherever the production of…

Torvex Energy has proved that its patented technique is capable of producing hydrogen from saltwater. Torvex Energy, a Stockton-based research and development business, recently announced the invention of a new method for hydrogen production from saltwater. The company collaborated with the Material Processing Institute to validate the process. This novel method of hydrogen production from saltwater produces no oxygen gas. As such, it is distinctly distinct from more conventional water electrolysis processes used to generate green hydrogen. Having said that, the team behind the manufacturing process describes it as an environmentally friendly technology. The company is pursuing patents for this…

The Vodorod SM design bureau in Samara is working on the development of Russia’s first methane-hydrogen-fueled gas-turbine unit for heat and power supply. The design bureau was created by Academician S.P. Korolev Samara National Research University and Power Machines. The technical design of the unit is supposed to be completed in 2023. Then a prototype will be made at the Power Machines facility. Scientists explain that they are engaged in a new direction in the Russian energy industry. Such a gas turbine unit will be more environmentally friendly compared to kerosene or natural gas-based counterparts. “The first project is a…
