Hanstholm Port has taken the first step toward becoming Europe’s first carbon-neutral fishing port. The Port of Hanstholm has signed a statement of intent with Danish renewable energy developer European Energy to establish a Power-to-X plant at the port, in addition to solar and wind energy plants. The 130,000 square meter backland area at the Port of Hanstholm, which was added to the port in recent years as part of a large-scale expansion, promises to be a focus of activity. The objective is to convert the majority of the enormous region into a local energy community known as “Hanstholm Energifllesskab…

Next Hydrogen, a designer and manufacturer of hydrogen electrolyzers, announced the appointment of Kasia Malz as Chief Financial Officer. Kasia previously held the position on a contract basis. “Kasia is an invaluable member of the Next Hydrogen team and we’re extremely pleased that she will be assuming the role of CFO on a permanent full-time basis,” said Raveel Afzaal, President and CEO of Next Hydrogen. “Kasia’s many contributions over the last year include completing two financings as well as a M&A transaction, taking Next Hydrogen public and developing strong internal controls, implementing an ERP system and supporting the growth of our…
Green hydrogen, according to a Goldman Sachs study, may supply up to 25% of the world’s energy needs by 2050 and grow to a 13 trillion euro market. However, before then, the issue of hydrogen storage and transportation must be resolved. Only CO2-free hydrogen produced through renewable energy sources is long-term sustainable. However, it will be some time before enough hydrogen is available to fulfill expanding demand. This is due to a scarcity of green electricity. Among the numerous alternative manufacturing techniques available today, the most popular is the manufacture of blue or gray hydrogen from natural gas. Numerous industrial…
Around 20,000 hydrogen-electric cars are expected to be on the road in the United States by the end of 2021.
At 60 bar and temperatures between 500 and 600 °C, the conversion and endothermic heats of reaction were determined over a Pd-Al2O3 catalyst. At 600 °C, heats of reaction as high as 950 kJ kg1 were produced, with conversions of more than 80%. The catalyst remained stable for at least many hours with no signs of coking.
Eurasia Mining has released an update on its strategy and progress in the hydrogen and ammonia industries. Eurasia Mining, with the establishment of its office in Japan and the appointment of director Tamerlan Abdikeev, has recognized complementing potential in hydrogen and ammonia production to its platinum group metals (PGM) business in Russia. The AIM-listed firm said that it has entered into a joint venture agreement with H4Energy Joint-Stock Company, an engineering and development company focused on hydrogen and ammonia projects, to develop hydrogen and ammonia projects in Kola and Sakhalin. Additionally, an agreement was made with the State Far East…
This strategy is consistent with India’s audacious goal of carbon neutrality by 2070. For household, commercial, and industrial use, the government intends to blend 15% green hydrogen with piped natural gas (PNG). This decision is consistent with India’s ambitious targets for greenhouse gas reduction and carbon neutrality by 2070. This effort is part of the government’s National Hydrogen Energy Mission, which aims to generate hydrogen using only renewable energy. Earlier this year, Power Minister R K Singh announced the government’s intention to bring green hydrogen under the renewable purchase obligation (RPO), which requires bulk buyers such as Discoms and captive…
Hidroelectrica, the majority state-owned hydropower producer in Romania, is seeking a consultant to conduct a feasibility study for a 50 MW green hydrogen production plant on the Danube island of Ostrovu Mare. Additionally, another hydrogen project has begun in Ploiesti — Lukoil has signed an agreement with Rusatom Overseas to produce and supply green hydrogen.Hidroelectrica declared its desire to make green hydrogen by water hydrolysis, utilizing a 50MW hydrolyzer, Danube water resources, and renewable energy provided by a dedicated photovoltaic park. The Romanian company intends to achieve a 75 percent process efficiency and to produce at least 7,500 tons of…
China Yuchai International, through its principal operational subsidiary, Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Limited (“GYMCL”), reported that its YCK05 hydrogen-powered engine demonstrated steady ignition and operation during a recent demonstration at the Beijing Institute of Technology. The YCK05 engine is the world’s first commercial vehicle hydrogen engine to be operational in China, the world’s largest commercial vehicle market. This accomplishment represents another milestone for Yuchai hydrogen technology in the development of hydrogen energy as an ecologically friendly alternative propulsion system, after the company’s launch of hydrogen fuel cell technology. The YCK05 hydrogen-powered engine incorporates a number of sophisticated special technologies, including…
Hydrogen energy plays a critical role in the EU’s energy transition system, with natural gas exporters expressing an interest in supplying hydrogen, sometimes via existing infrastructure. While the EU considers programs aimed at transitioning to “green energy” and phasing out fossil fuels entirely by 2050, hydrocarbon suppliers are also keeping an eye on the pulse and evaluating how to keep up with the trend toward alternative energy. Thus, hydrogen energy has risen to prominence in recent years, alongside other renewable energy technologies. Major exporters of driving gas have frequently stated their intention to enter the hydrogen supply chain – Russia…
