Sharjah-based Beeah Energy, a subsidiary of Beeah Group, and Chinook Sciences, a company based in the United Kingdom, have inked a deal to begin developing the region’s first waste-to-hydrogen plant. The factory will also produce environmentally friendly hydrogen at a reasonable cost and high-quality activated carbon. According to state news agency WAM, non-recyclable waste wood and plastic will be processed using Chinook RODECS gasification and pyrolysis technology, which can generate up to 18,000kg of green hydrogen per day at full operational capacity. “The technology breaks down hydrocarbons from waste through advanced thermal treatment to release and recover green hydrogen. Then,…

Centrica will assist National Grid in developing procedures for injecting green hydrogen into the National Transmission System (NTS). To achieve the UK government’s net zero carbon ambitions, the UK’s gas networks must decarbonize. National Grid, in collaboration with CNG Services, Element Energy, and Centrica, has been awarded £114,652 as part of Ofgem’s Strategic Innovation Fund (SIF) competition for a discovery phase project. Currently, there is no official protocol in place for injecting green hydrogen into the NTS – in large part because the process is very new and has not been required. While an established procedure exists for big entrance…

Wacker Chemie AG has reapplied for European Union funding for its initiative at its Burghausen plant to produce green hydrogen and renewable methanol. In 2020, the WACKER Group appealed to the European Commission’s EU Innovation Fund for funding for its RHYME (Renewable Hydrogen and Methanol) Bavaria project. During the initial review process, RHMYE Bavaria won over more than two hundred competing projects. Despite the jury’s high ranking, it was unable to qualify for the final stage. “The EU has now adjusted its selection criteria as well as increasing annual funding from €1 billion to €1.5 billion, which makes it possible…

RWE Gas Storage West aims to construct a hydrogen storage facility at Gronau-Epe by 2027 as part of the GET H2 initiative. Additionally, storage facilities are a critical component of the future European infrastructure for green hydrogen. The majority of the facility will be constructed on the RWE site in Kottiger Hook. The cavern will be connected to the above-ground facilities, as well as to a future hydrogen transport network, via pipelines located outside the storage site. RWE has filed for funding through the “Important Projects of Common European Interest” (IPCEI) programme, in collaboration with partners from the GET H2…
