“Now it is up to The Hague to take action.” “The cabinet, as far as I’m concerned, will begin before Christmas,” says FNV director Cihan Lacin. Greening plans in IJmuiden, he claims, cannot be implemented without government assistance. This includes things like securing subsidies and the appropriate permissions, as well as infrastructure building.
OQ, the Sultanate of Oman’s global integrated energy organization, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with KOGAS Tech to explore future collaboration in hydrogen-related areas. The MoU was signed at OQ Group’s headquarters in Muscat by OQ Group CEO Talal al Awfi and KOGAS CEO Cho Yong-Don. Apart from OQ authorities, the MoU signing ceremony was attended by Kim Chang Kyu, South Korea’s Ambassador to the Sultanate of Oman, and Dr Myungsoo Kim, Dajeon’s Vice Mayor of Science. The latter is presently in Muscat, meeting with Omani officials to discuss ways to further strengthen bilateral collaboration on hydrogen generation. Oman’s…
Proton Motor Fuel Cell, a Bavarian hydrogen fuel cell specialist, has successfully launched its primary product innovation, the HyShelter 240. Shell New Energies, a subsidiary of the worldwide energy company, established a novel technical solution for the off-grid power supply of a mobile pressurized hydrogen filling station. HyShelter’s wide application areas include uninterruptible emergency power supply for data centers, municipal utilities, hospitals, and other important public facilities, as well as off-grid charging infrastructure for battery-electric vehicles. The fuel cell power plant’s basic components are three Proton Motor PM Frame S43 fuel cell systems.
In this light, the Indian Oil Corporation, which controls the most government refineries, has issued a request for proposals for the building of green hydrogen units with operational durations ranging from 16 to 24 years.
The hydrogen energy sector is at a turning point worldwide. The energy transition has made countries and companies realize that the use of hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives (ammonia, methanol and synthetic fuels) is becoming increasingly important.
Hexagon Purus announced the signing of an exclusive long-term supply arrangement with a major European bus OEM. Hexagon Purus will provide hydrogen storage systems for the OEM’s next generation two-axle (12 meter) and articulated (18 meter) fuel cell buses. Hexagon Purus has been a long-standing customer of this OEM. Deliveries under the LTA will occur between 2021 and 2024 and are expected to generate around EUR 30 million in revenue (including some deliveries already made in 2021). The hydrogen storage systems will be manufactured at Hexagon Purus’ factory in Kassel, Germany, and will incorporate Hexagon Purus’ lightweight type 4 cylinders,…
Neste has entered the execution phase of the MultiPLHY collaboration with its partners. The MultiPLHY project seeks to develop, integrate, and operate the world’s first multi-megawatt-scale (2.4 MW) high-temperature electrolyzer system at Neste’s renewable products refinery in Rotterdam in order to demonstrate the production of green hydrogen for refinery activities. Sunfire developed the high-temperature electrolyzer technology. The MultiPLHY project began in early 2020 and has since finished the conceptual design phase while finalizing the detailed engineering. Neste will then proceed with the construction phase. Along with Neste and Sunfire, the MultiPLHY consortium is comprised of the following partners: CEA, a…
The renewable energy developer is ready to invest INR 18,000 crore (US$ 2414.29 million) in setting up a 50 kilotonne per annum green hydrogen production plant in the State.
Ballard Power Systems has begun a three-year cooperation with Caterpillar Inc. and Microsoft to showcase a power system using large-format hydrogen fuel cells to generate reliable and sustainable backup power for data centers. The US Department of Energy’s (DOE) H2@Scale effort supports and partially funds the project, which is endorsed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). Caterpillar experts in advanced power technologies, controls, and system integration are collaborating with Microsoft experts in data center design and Ballard experts in fuel cell design to demonstrate a 1.5 MW backup power delivery and control system that meets or exceeds the high…
liquid hydrogen boils away at a rate of 2% to 3% per day under typical storage. By the time it reaches Korean coastlines, up to 20-30% of the tank will be depleted.
