CAF, a train and LRV maker, has acquired a three-car electric multiple unit, the Class 463 Civia, from Spanish national operator Renfe for conversion into a hydrogen fuel cell demonstrator. The research will be conducted by a consortium comprised of ADIF, the National Center for Hydrogen, Infraestructuras de Portugal, Faiveley Stemmann Technik, Toyota Motor Europe, and the German research group DLR. The FCH2Rail partnership has committed 14 million euros to the project, which will design, develop, and test a hydrogen-powered train prototype. The project is anticipated to be completed in mid-2022. The train will thereafter be tested on a variety…

The owner of Severstal, Alexei Mordashov, estimated the transition of the Russian ferrous metallurgy to carbon-free production at 10 trillion rubles. In addition, it will require the creation of 110 GW of green energy, he noted.

A new step in favor of energy transition for the Communauté de Communes les Sorgues du Comtat, which has signed a contract with the HYNOE group for the installation of a renewable hydrogen production and distribution station on the territory. Already strongly involved in sustainable development and ecological transition through its Territory Project and its PCAET, the Communauté de Communes les Sorgues du Comtat has just taken a new step forward by validating on Monday 22 November a memorandum of understanding with the company Hynoé, developer and operator of renewable electricity and hydrogen production solutions. The Community of Communes of…

NLMK Group, a global steel business, and Rusatom Overseas (a subsidiary of ROSATOM State Corporation) have agreed to collaborate on hydrogen generation and the development of CO2 capture and utilization technology. The agreement establishes a framework for collaborative research and development efforts in hydrogen production technologies (such as water electrolysis, steam methane reforming with CO2 capture, and methane pyrolysis) and pilot hydrogen production projects. Additionally, as part of the collaboration, the parties want to evaluate the technical and commercial elements of climate-neutral hydrogen production. Sergey Chebotarev, NLMK Group Vice President for Energy and the Environment, said: “The use of low-carbon hydrogen…

These are the initiatives launched by Enel Green Power, Linde, Engie, Air Liquide, GNL Quintero, and CAP that were chosen for co-financing in this call with the goal of accelerating the growth of this industry in Chile and thereby placing the country as a global leader. Corfo selected six of the twelve proposals submitted in the first call for green hydrogen production plants in Chile, with the goal of expediting the implementation of these initiatives in the country’s north, center, and south, in order to address climate change challenges while also promoting investment in clean energy, job creation, and entrepreneurship…

The first nuclear power plant in Russia dedicated to hydrogen production is scheduled to begin operations in 2033 and be fully operational by 2036, according to Andrey Nikipelov, General Director of Atomenergomash Holding’s machine construction business. Atomenergomash’s participation in hydrogen projects is being explored in numerous directions, including the building of nuclear power plants (NPPs) for hydrogen generation and the development of equipment for hydrogen storage and transportation, Nikipelov added. According to him, the firm OKBM Afrikantov (Nizhny Novgorod) of Atomenergomash is currently finalizing the preliminary design of a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR). “According to the roadmap, the technical design…

Bloomberg New Energy Finance’s “Climatescope 2021” ranks Chile as the “top country in America” for renewable energy investment, beating out Brazil, Canada, and the United States. Chile retains its status as the “best country in America” to invest in renewable energy for the fourth consecutive year, a position it has held for at least two decades. Additionally, it is ranked second in the world among emerging economies, behind India. The research identifies the following goals for 2020: the entry of 4,600 million dollars in alternative energy investments, with solar and wind power taking the lead. They add the 2035 target…

Now that fossil fuels have reached the end of their useful lives, oil and gas companies are looking for new markets. They are being discovered by Neptune Energy in CO2 and hydrogen. “Why not repurpose existing infrastructure and pipelines?” “As a gas producer, we play a critical part in the energy transition.” Lex de Groot, director of Neptune Energy Netherlands, offers no apologies. “Producing gas and working on the energy transition are not mutually exclusive; they complement one another.” After all, gas will continue to meet a sizable amount of the Netherlands’ energy needs for the next two decades, according…

Global business is increasingly transforming itself into a more sustainable, carbon-neutral economy. As part of our commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, SK Group firms are redirecting their investments and operations in order to minimize and eventually eliminate their net carbon emissions. Hydrogen is an alternative energy source that SK enterprises and partners are developing to assist us in meeting our environmental goals. Monolith, a United States-based firm in which SK Inc. is a strategic investor, has achieved a new hydrogen energy milestone. Monolith stated that it has received conditional permission from the United States Department of Energy…
