Green Hydrogen H2 News

We do not know what the future of the automobile will look like, whether it will be electric, hybrid, fuel cell, or some other yet-to-be-discovered technology. What we do know is that manufacturers are always innovating, one of which is the BMW Concept iX5 Hydrogen Protection VR6. It is a concept vehicle that is designed to suit the demands of persons and those who want additional protection, while also creating new sustainability norms in its vehicle class. The BMW Group demonstrates the capability of hydrogen fuel cell technology for locally CO2-free driving with this concept automobile, demonstrating that it can…

Beyond its H2 export to Europe, the Finnish city of Raahe has declared that it would join the Baltic Sea hydrogen pipeline. The city is located on Finland’s northern shore and has been designated as a suitable location for industrial H2 production. In a newly published study, the city was recognized as being suitable for industrial hydrogen generation and storage. Raahe is aiming to become a significant carbon-neutral industrial center and a hub for H2 generation in the BotH2nia hydrogen industrial zone by connecting to the Baltic Sea hydrogen pipeline. The city already has an operational SSAB steel factory. By…

Siemens Energy has been awarded a contract by European Energy to supply an electrolyzer plant. The Danish developer and operator of green energy projects is creating the world’s first commercial-scale e-Methanol manufacturing facility, with hydrogen supplied by a Siemens Energy 50 megawatt (MW) electrolyzer plant. The facility will be built in Kass, Denmark, west of Aabenraa and close the German border. The project will have access to low-cost renewable electricity required to manufacture cost-effective e-Fuel via the neighboring 300 MW Kass solar park planned by European Energy. Among the e-Methanol’s end users will be the shipping corporation Maersk and the…

Solaris has been awarded a contract to supply five hydrogen-powered Urbino 12 hydrogen buses to Palma de Mallorca, the island’s capital. The contract is valued at approximately €4 million. EMT-Board Palma’s of Directors has chosen to purchase five hydrogen-powered, zero-emission Solaris cars. This investment is part of the EU-funded “Green Hyslan” project. The project’s mission is to advance renewable energy production as part of efforts to prevent climate change by 2050. The Spanish island is expected to become a European benchmark for zero-emission energy use as a result of the planned operations. “Interest in hydrogen technology is steadily growing and the decision of the…

A new metropolis is creating a green hydrogen ecosystem. The European Metropolis of Lille, in partnership with Engie (66%), has created Hyléos to produce and distribute renewable hydrogen. Like Dijon Métropole, MEL wants to use the electricity produced from the waste from the Halluin Energy Recovery Center to produce renewable hydrogen. The aim of this project is to power 42 buses and 5 refuse collection vehicles. The buses will be put into circulation progressively, up to 2 years after the commissioning of the station. This renewable hydrogen production and distribution station will be located in the municipalities of Sequedin and…
