Green Hydrogen H2 News

Hydrogen generated from renewable energy sources will account for 20% of Europe’s electricity consumption in 2050 and 10% globally, according to a report released by Norway’s Statkraft. Green hydrogen is created by splitting water molecules in electrolysers using a renewable electrical current. The gas is positioned as a low-carbon alternative to fossil fuels in industries that are notoriously difficult to decarbonize. According to Statkraft’s sixth annual Low Emissions Scenario study, European power consumption would reach slightly over 5,000 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2050, with green hydrogen production accounting for roughly 1,000 TWh, up from the present demand of around 30…

The developer of Australia’s largest clean hydrogen hub has agreed to pay $30 million to US manufacturer Babcock and Wilcox to build a biomass-to-hydrogen project at the site. As governments and business spend more in developing the nation’s nascent zero-emissions hydrogen economy, Port Anthony Renewables is bringing the technology of New York-listed Babcock and Wilcox for hydrogen production from waste timber to its hub in Victoria’s Gippsland region. “The Port Anthony area has always been a cornerstone of the offshore energy industry,” Port Anthony Renewables managing director Ben Anthony said. “This jointly developed Babcock and Wilcox project represents not only…

RWE and John Cockerill are collaborating on the construction of a testing facility in Germany that will optimize a critical stage in the process of converting domestic garbage to hydrogen. The facility, dubbed a torrefaction plant, will be constructed at RWE’s research center in Niederaußem (Germany), and will be used to evaluate the manufacture of waste-derived feedstock pellets for use in the company’s unique FUREC waste-to-hydrogen venture. RWE will invest €3 million in the pilot plant, which will begin operations in July 2022. The NESA Multi-Hearth furnace (MHF), a technology offered by John Cockerill Environment, is at the heart of…

Marine Power Systems and Marine2o will collaborate to develop integrated solutions to assist the production of green hydrogen, which will be transported to market via marine boats. This initial collaboration will help pave the way for the deployment of MPS’ revolutionary offshore wind and wave energy capture devices to generate green hydrogen in the UK and other markets. Although the hydrogen market is firmly established, more than 98 percent of hydrogen is sourced from fossil sources. Hydrogen may be produced using renewable energy by electrolysis of water and has the potential to directly displace fossil fuels while also creating new…

Linde has begun construction of a new world-scale hydrogen production facility in Texas, raising Linde’s total hydrogen capacity on the US Gulf Coast to around 1.5 billion cubic feet per day. Linde’s new facility has begun supplying high-purity hydrogen to Phillips 66’s Sweeny Refinery in Old Ocean, Texas, as part of a long-term supply arrangement. The new facility is located on Linde’s approximately 600-kilometer-long United States Gulf Coast hydrogen pipeline, which connects Lake Charles, Louisiana, to Freeport, Texas, and has been extended to include the Sweeny Refinery. Along with providing Phillips 66, the new facility will address the region’s expanding…
