The Marche Region (Italy) is taking a strong step toward sustainable energy, with the goal of gradually decarbonizing the economy through the introduction of hydrogen (Hydrogen Valleys). Given that the Ministry for Ecological Transition (MITE) is about to issue a request for proposals to identify projects eligible for special funding under the funding line of the National Research Program dedicated to hydrogen, Mirco Carloni, vice president of the Marche Region and Councillor for Energy, has decided to be prepared. “I had a notice published inviting enterprises to express interest in applying for funding under the ministerial call for Hydrogen Technologies…
GM is developing new commercial applications for its Hydrotec fuel cell technology. Along with heavy-duty vehicles and locomotives, it will be utilized in a mobile power generator to assist gas stations in offering low-cost direct current charging without expanding the grid. GM announces three products in total in the release: A mobile power generator (or MPG for short) placed on a trailer is designed to provide off-grid electric car charging stations — for example, at events. The second gadget, dubbed ‘Empower,’ will be deployed in a fixed location and will enable quick charging when the grid connection is weak. Thus,…
In late December, the Chilean National Development Agency (Corfo) selected six green hydrogen production projects for development, advancing the country’s efforts to become a global leader in the developing clean energy sector. The winning bids would result in the addition of over 45,000 metric tons (mt) of green hydrogen capacity per year, with each facility projected to commence operations in 2025 or sooner. The following projects represent over $1 billion in investment commitments by worldwide energy and chemical companies: Faro del Sur (South Faro). Green Power Enel Chile, a subsidiary of the Italian energy company Enel, will manufacture 25,000 metric…
The arrival in Victoria today of the world’s first liquid hydrogen carrier, the Suiso Frontier, marks the completion of the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) Pilot Project and the start of Australia’s hydrogen sector. HESC’s objective is to manufacture carbon-neutral hydrogen by extracting it from a mix of Latrobe Valley coal and biomass, absorbing and storing CO2 via the CarbonNet Project, and optimizing the HESC supply chain’s energy efficiency. HESC’s commercial phase production of 225,000 tonnes of carbon-neutral liquefied hydrogen (LH2) will contribute to global CO2 emissions reductions of approximately 1.8 million tonnes per year (equivalent to the emissions of…
The concept for a hydrogen manufacturing plant in Yorkshire has progressed after energy company Equinor submitted its plans to the Government’s ‘cluster sequencing procedure’ in phase two. H2H Saltend is the company’s projected 600 megawatt low carbon hydrogen production plant with carbon capture, located east of Hull in Saltend. The Humber region is home to the UK’s most carbon-intensive industrial sector. Equinor stated that H2H Saltend might enable industries on Saltend Chemicals Park and in the surrounding East Yorkshire area to cut CO2 emissions by almost one million tonnes per year, or 30% of the Saltend Chemicals Park’s current emissions.…
The Ministry of Energy signed eight memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with various entities on Thursday for the purpose of implementing pilot projects for hydrogen fuel cell-powered cars, buses, and trains, transportation applications, and sustainable jet fuel production in selected areas and on public roads throughout the Kingdom. Minister of Energy Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman emphasized in a statement on this occasion King Salman’s interest in the energy sector and his desire to develop and utilize the Kingdom’s diverse energy resources. “This step is taken simultaneously with drafting the hydrogen strategy, which arises from the integrated energy strategy that lays out…
The Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) announced the acquisition of 23 Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (HFCEVs), the company’s first purchase of hydrogen-powered vehicles. Next month, the firm expects to double its fleet of HFCEVs to 50, making SoCalGas one of the nation’s first utilities to begin the shift to hydrogen. These HFCEVs are a critical step toward decarbonizing SoCalGas’ fleet and contribute to the company’s Net Zero 2045 climate objective of replacing 50% of its over-the-road fleet with clean fuel vehicles by 2025 and operating a 100% zero-emission fleet by 2035. “California companies must work together in…
Endua’s proposal to develop modular hydrogen-powered energy generation and storage systems has received a financial boost from the Australian federal government, which has awarded it nearly AUD 1 million ($719,800) to assist it in commercializing its innovations. Endua’s proposal to develop modular hydrogen-powered energy generation and storage systems has received a financial boost from the Australian federal government, which has awarded it nearly AUD 1 million ($719,800) to assist it in commercializing its innovations. Endura, based in Brisbane, plans to build modular hydrogen power banks using new electrolysis technology developed by Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO). Endura…
