A £5 million Hydrogen BECCS Innovation Program was started in January 2022 by the UK government. Hydrogen production for hard-to-decarbonize industries and carbon dioxide removal is also part of the plan. Biomass and hydrogen play an important part in achieving the net-zero UK, as this effort shows.

The crisis in Ukraine, the main consequence of which is a threat to energy security for the EU and the US, has forced an urgent revision of energy policy in Europe and America. First of all, we are talking about reducing dependence on hydrocarbon supplies from Russia. At the same time, the EU and the USA have not stopped emphasizing that they will continue to move towards climate neutrality. The transition to hydrogen fuel could be a solution to both problems. On Monday in Dubai (United Arab Emirates), the Atlantic Council’s Global Energy Forum discussed the challenges and opportunities facing…
The European Hydrogen Congress 2022, to be held from May 18 to 20 in Madrid, will be supported by more than 35 sponsors, as well as the collaboration of international and national reference entities, such as Hydrogen Europe (HE), the International Energy Agency (IEA), the Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving (IDAE) and the Community of Madrid, among others. The Congress expects to receive more than 450 attendees from more than 40 countries around the world. The Honorary Committee of the European Hydrogen Energy Conference (EHEC) 2022 will be chaired by King Felipe VI. The European reference congress in the…
GE has begun its readiness assessment for the Grain combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power station in Kent, England. Grain is Uniper’s newest combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power station in the UK. Uniper and GE have been engaging closely on the long-term decarbonisation of Uniper’s gas-fired power stations and natural gas storage facilities since the signing of their cooperation agreement. This may also contribute to the UK’s goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. To assist in this effort, GE’s plant assessment at Grain will seek to develop detailed solutions that will enable the 1,365 megawatt (MW) combined-cycle gas…
According to proposals produced by Infinite Blue Energy, the Western Australian town of Northam could soon be home to Australia’s first large-scale green hydrogen factory. The company has acquired the existing 11 megawatt Northam Solar Farm from its current owners Indigenous Business Australia (IBA) and Bookitja Pty Ltd as trustee of the Ngangk Trust, with the intention of using it to power a 10 megawatt hydrogen electrolyser and battery storage system capable of producing up to 4 tons of green hydrogen per day. This project, dubbed MEG HP1, will contain a truck-offload terminal that will enable the provision of local…
H2 MOBILITY Germany has secured €110 million in funding. In addition to Hy24, the fund manager of the world’s largest clean hydrogen investment platform, legacy industrial shareholders Air Liquide, Daimler Truck, Hyundai, Linde, OMV, Shell and TotalEnergies are participating in the capital increase. The investment will be used to upgrade the existing refueling station network and build new hydrogen stations to meet the growing demand for hydrogen (H2) from commercial vehicles and vehicles in intensive use. The new shareholder was presented today in Berlin in the presence of Ismail Ertug, Member of the European Parliament and Rapporteur in the Transport…
Germany wants to import large quantities of green hydrogen from Australia using tankers. This was announced by the Australian energy company Fortescue Future Industries (FFI) and the German energy company Eon at a press conference in Berlin. Eon is the German parent company of the Dutch company Essent. In the long run, hydrogen, generated with solar and wind energy, should replace fossil fuels. It should also reduce European countries’ dependence on Russian fuels, something the Netherlands and Germany have wanted to achieve as soon as possible since the war in Ukraine. Still, it will be some time before hydrogen flows…
