The U.S. has launched the Gold Hydrogen program to extract natural hydrogen, which is found underground. It was previously inaccessible, but new innovative methods have already been developed to obtain this resource. The Gold Hydrogen program involves the Houston Future Center, as well as global players in the U.S. hydrogen industry like Cemvita Factory, Chart Industries and EXP. Able to revitalize thousands of depleted, abandoned oil and gas fields across the U.S., the innovative hydrogen production methods combine existing infrastructure with advanced microbiology. “The Gold Hydrogen program provides a unique opportunity to transition to a clean hydrogen economy. Ambitious measures…

The H2It association has attained the milestone of 100 members. The organization, which was founded in 2005 to promote the production and use of hydrogen, tripled its membership between 2019 and 2022, with members representing businesses and research institutions of varying sizes and industries. This is mentioned in a note, which also states that H2It’s objective is to “strengthen the network of firms and research institutes operating in the hydrogen market, with the goal of maturing it and making it critical for our country’s ecological revolution.” To do this, H2It collaborates with the Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center on the Innovahy…

In Italy, the country’s first urban hydrogen distributor is about to launch. The facility is currently undergoing testing, according to hydrogen-news.it. It is now awaiting final approvals and authorizations, but will be operating by March 2022. Where? The station is located in Mestre, in the municipality of Venice, and features two hydrogen supply terminals for vehicles, trucks, and buses. It is stated that all precautions have been taken. What is the future of hydrogen? Luigi Brugnaro, the mayor of Venice, expressed satisfaction: “Thanks to Eni, another significant step forward has been taken.” This demonstrates how well-deserved Venice’s candidacy as the…

Goldman Sachs estimates that the hydrogen market could develop into a billion-dollar-a-year market by 2050.

Recently opened by FURNAS, the plant for research on green hydrogen generation at the Itumbiara power plant in the state of Minas Gerais is entering a new phase. According to the business, the first study examining the synergy of hydropower and solar energy sources with seasonal and intermittent energy storage in hydrogen systems should be completed this month. As a reminder, Eletrobras FURNAS started a plant for studying green hydrogen generation in late December. With a R$ 45 million investment, the goal is to obtain expertise for the entire Brazilian electric sector and contribute to the country’s energy matrix transition.…

The CB&I Storage Solutions storage sphere will be the first liquid hydrogen sphere created in North America in over 20 years when it is finished in the next two months. It will be about 50% larger than the 1966 construction, at 1.25 million gallons, and both will be located at the Kennedy Space Center.

This low-carbon approach will help Niger, Africa, Europe, and other nations that rely heavily on fossil fuels to decarbonize their emission-intensive sectors.

Aggreko is boosting its investments in hydrogen technology as part of its Net Zero strategy, enhancing the company’s ability to deliver emission-free temporary electricity globally. At the moment, the company, which is a global leader in transportable and modular energy solutions, is concentrating its efforts on two fronts. A prototype 50 k/VA hydrogen combustion generator has been created in collaboration with clean-tech partner CMB.TECH. Following successful testing, Aggreko is now investing in ten additional units to meet increased demand for hydrogen, collaborating with clients and leading partners to test and validate hydrogen as a temporary power source. The system will…

The Van Kessel Group of Milheeze has placed an order for five hydrogen trailers. Hexagon Purus, a Norwegian company specializing in hydrogen systems, is building the trailers.

The German start-up H2FLY and Deutsche Aircraft have a lofty goal: they want to develop the world’s first electric hydrogen regional aircraft by 2025. This designed to carry up to 40 passengers and fly over 2,000 kilometers. But there are still many unsolved questions regarding the technology. The aircraft industry plans to fly climate-neutrally by 2050. At least, it is the avowed goal of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) (IATA). Along the way, there are numerous approaches, from e-fuels to battery-powered aircraft. In Stuttgart, on the other hand, the German start-up H2FLY is working with Deutsche Aircraft on an…
