In Sweden, a new 600 MW facility will be built near the Storgrundet offshore wind farm by the French green hydrogen expert.

Both types produce up to 210 kilowatts of electricity by converting current diesel engines to hydrogen. The company claims 500 kilometers of autonomy with a full tank without specifying the volume of the hydrogen tanks.

The agreement encompasses the construction of hydrogen production facilities and ammonia plants.

The cash provided by Ofgem and gas distribution firms to SGN will assess if the UK’s transmission networks can be repurposed for hydrogen gas.

If hydrogen is to realize its full potential, production must expand dramatically – up to eight times by the middle of the century, according to some estimates – requiring a $ 15 trillion investment.

Kishida visited liquid hydrogen receiving facility in Kobe, the capital of the Hyogo prefecture in western Japan, and examined the Suiso Frontier, the world’s first liquefied hydrogen transport ship. Suiso is a Japanese word that implies hydrogen.

Bosch’s new solid oxide fuel cell prototype has an electrical efficiency of more than 60% and an overall efficiency above 85%. It also has a targeted power output of 10 kW and can produce up to 3 kW of thermal energy.

An offshore wind plant and another one of green hydrogen could soon be realized off the coast of Bari by a local start-up. They would be added to the one already realized in Taranto and to the one planned in front of the Salento coasts between Otranto and Santa Maria di Leuca (where 90 wind turbines almost 300 meters high are planned for an area of about 163 square meters). For Bari, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility has forwarded the application for the project to be carried out to the Port Authority of the metropolitan city. The location…

Normally, electricity flows through cables and gas through pipelines. But a research team from Karlsruhe is working on combining the two. The vision: a pipeline that transports liquid hydrogen and electricity. Novel superconductors make it possible. Electricity flows through wires, gas flows through pipelines. That’s how it has been so far, but it doesn’t have to stay that way. At least that’s the opinion of the team led by Tabea Arndt, a physics professor at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. However, the substance she wants to transport is not natural gas, but green hydrogen, produced with the help of renewable…

At the beginning of 2021, the Swedish energy company Vattenfall surprisingly took its coal-fired power plant Moorburg off the grid – after only six years of operation. Apparently, the plant could no longer be operated economically, after long conflicts with environmental protection associations and court proceedings. The city of Hamburg wants to turn the strategically important site on the Elbe into a hub for the northern German energy transition. Following demolition of the power plant – known as “dismantling” in the energy industry – large electrolysis plants are to be built there. According to the plan, the existing connection to…
