Two researchers at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) have built hydrogen hybrid vehicles that run on hydrogen fuel cells and produce no carbon dioxide. Professor Ir. Dr. Siti Kartom Kamarudin and Associate Professor Dr Mohd Shahbudin Mastar @ Masdar from the UKM Fuel Cell Institute supervised the research and development of the UKM FCH2HC, a miniature hybrid SUV, and the UKM-FCH2B, a buggy. Through the modification of electric vehicles, the hydrogen fuel cell vehicles were developed in partnership with industrial partners. The UKM-FCH2B, according to Siti Kartom, is unusual in that the battery has been replaced with a fuel cell system…

Honda announced plans to build a stationary fuel cell power plant on its Torrance, Calif., corporate site by early 2023. The station will serve as a proof of concept for the eventual commercialization of a zero-emission backup power source for facilities such as data centers that require reliable and clean auxiliary power generation to continue operations in the event of an emergency. This new effort will capitalize on Honda’s experience in fuel cell technology in support of the company’s global objective of carbon neutrality for all products and operations by 2050. Honda’s proof-of-concept fuel cell power station will incorporate fuel…

Growing Mid Wales, a regional collaboration and engagement initiative, has commissioned Radical Innovations Group (RIG) to conduct a feasibility study on hydrogen’s potential as a decarbonisation driver in Wales. The feasibility study examines future industrial-scale investment opportunities in green hydrogen production to aid in decarbonisation. The study comes at a time when area stakeholders are becoming increasingly interested in green hydrogen as a zero-emission alternative. It is coordinated by RIG, a private SME focused on technology development and consulting on feasibility studies, policy and regulatory modeling, and strategy execution. Hydrogen is frequently cited as a critical component in national and…

The European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney has been awarded funding to conduct a real-time trial of artificial intelligence (AI) software for optimizing hydrogen production and storage. The HyAI 2.0 project seeks to demonstrate the usage of an artificial intelligence platform called HyAI by integrating it into EMEC’s hydrogen plant on the Orkney island of Eday. The Energy Entrepreneur Fund of the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy funded the initiative with £494k. HyAI is an artificial intelligence-powered hydrogen management platform developed by project lead H2GO Power, a pioneer in hydrogen-based renewable energy storage technologies. The cloud-based software…
