Hydrogen Europe is the largest organization of European businesses and groups dedicated to the advancement of this energy source. This effort is a component of the company’s diversification and growth strategy in response to the energy transition problem. Exolum is currently constructing the region’s first green hydrogen production plant and is a member of the Win4H2 alliance, which is working to establish a network of 50 hydrogen stations in order to facilitate the creation of national logistical routes with supply security. Exolum has joined the Hydrogen Europe alliance, a leading European organization dedicated to advancing the development of the European…

The sustainable mobility association Gasnam held an online conference to present the Basque Hydrogen Corridor, a pioneering initiative, born from the hand of Petronor and Repsol, to advance the decarbonization of transport, among other sectors. The projects integrated in this initiative involve an investment of 1,300 million euros until 2026, generating more than 1,340 direct jobs and 6,700 indirect jobs, which will result in the production of 20,000 tons of renewable hydrogen per year and in a reduction of 1.5 million tons of CO2 during this period. The guests at this presentation were welcomed by Gasnam’s general secretary, Eugenia Sillero;…

CS Energy has hired IHI Engineering Australia (a subsidiary of IHI Corporation Japan) to construct the Kogan Renewable Hydrogen Demonstration Plant near Chinchilla. Construction is expected to begin in six months. Minister for Energy, Renewables and Hydrogen Mick de Brenni made the announcement in a media release today.  Additionally, Mr de Brenni said that the government would contribute $28.9 million to the project and a refueling network through the government’s $2 billion Queensland Renewable Energy and Hydrogen Jobs Fund. CS Energy is currently developing its plans for a refueling network in South West Queensland. “The Kogan Renewable Hydrogen Demonstration Project will…

According to the Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC), the UK could dominate European fuel cell production and be a global center of excellence, according to an event held in Westminster on the eve of the Spring Statement. As the world continues to debate alternatives to its current reliance on fossil fuels for heating and transportation, as well as their sensitivity to global events, hydrogen is increasingly being touted as a possible solution. APC analysis of the fuel cell and hydrogen tank system revealed that the most valuable components could be mass manufactured in the UK, reducing reliance on foreign markets and…

South Korea’s first biogas hydrogen fueling station built in Chungju, 147 kilometers south of Seoul, using food waste to manufacture and distribute hydrogen fuel. The Chungju Bio-Hydrogen Refueling Station utilizes biogas generated from the Chungju Food Bio Energy Center to produce highly concentrated, environmentally friendly hydrogen with a purity of more than 99.99 percent. The station is equipped to fuel hydrogen cars and also delivers tube trailers to other hydrogen stations. Around 12.3 billion won ($10 million) was spent on the development of an operating system that integrates the manufacturing, storage, transportation, fueling, and sales processes.

German Vice-Chancellor Robert Habeck is in the Middle East on a whirlwind tour, seeking to speed supply agreements for natural gas, green and blue hydrogen. Germany’s long-term goal is to import up to three million metric tones of hydrogen per year by the end of the decade, but the Russian invasion of Ukraine has accelerated the timeline. Germany’s government is scrambling to replace Russian gas supplies before the conflict’s diplomatic repercussions has an economic consequence. This week, Habeck traveled to the United Arab Emirates and Qatar with a delegation of executives from German energy and industrial enterprises. In Qatar, the…

Atlas Copco has invested in technology to assist the emerging green hydrogen sector on its path to mainstream adoption. Atlas Copco’s line of hydrogen oil-free boosters, hydraulic oil-free boosters, and piston boosters is compact and simple to install. Atlas Copco hydrogen compression technology is modular in design to ensure user reliability and maximum uptime. It is fully tested and functional to support the truck and ground transport, trains and rail transport, airports, and aviation sectors in their mission to supply cleaner fuel for a sustainable future, as well as the power-to-gas market. Atlas Copco, a market leader in air and…

The South African Institute for Advanced Materials Chemistry (SAIAMC) at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) contributed significantly to the successful execution of a green hydrogen generation project in the Western Cape recently. UWC worked with a joint venture comprised of Keren Energy, Sakhumnotho, Cape Stack, and Namaqua Engineering as the primary technology and skills development partner on a green hydrogen proof of concept (POC) project in Vredendal under SAIAMC. The initiative is one of the first in South Africa to demonstrate the possibility of green hydrogen production utilizing solar energy. The facility is equipped with a 100 kW…

China intends to increase production of green hydrogen, a zero-carbon fuel derived from renewable energy sources, but urged for “logical and orderly” project planning on Wednesday in order to avoid disruptive competition. China, the world’s greatest producer of greenhouse gases, has been balancing energy security and climate change goals by focusing on hydrogen to cut carbon emissions from transportation and industry. By 2025, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) stated in a statement on Wednesday, China plans to manufacture 100,000 to 200,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually and have approximately 50,000 hydrogen-fueled vehicles. China presently produces 33 million tonnes…

ENEOS Corporation and Toyota Motor Corporation have entered into a cooperative venture to investigate CO2-free hydrogen generation and utilization at Woven City, Toyota’s prototype city of the future in Susono City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. They will speed efforts by managing technical logistics in collaboration with Toyota subsidiary Woven Planet Holdings, Inc. (Woven Planet). As stipulated in the 2021 Basic Agreement, ENEOS and Toyota have chosen to begin building and operation of a hydrogen refueling station near Woven City to manufacture and provide CO2-free hydrogen to Woven City and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs) (Item 1 and 2 set forth below).…
