The huge high-pressure piston compressor solutions are intended exclusively for hydrogen trailer filling and high-mass-flow fuel stations. They are designed for mass flows greater than 150 kg/h, which helps reduce the number of compressors required per hydrogen trailer filling station or fuel station. Burckhardt Compression’s in-house testing facilities in Switzerland was used to develop and successfully test the high-pressure hydrogen compressor. The crucial components, oil-free high-pressure piston sealing and packings, have demonstrated their mechanical and sealing capability at a discharge pressure of 550 bar during these tests. The optimum configuration has been chosen, and durability testing to demonstrate comparable wear…

Both Topsoe and Green Fuels are already engaged in the development of green solutions to aid in the fight against climate change. The two parties are now collaborating to develop practical and efficient solutions that could eventually result in the establishment of Icelandic green ammonia production. Green Fuel is a hydrogen and ammonia firm that aims to be at the vanguard of the energy transition. Topsoe creates cutting-edge innovative technologies in green hydrogen, green ammonia, eMethanol, and efuels. Green ammonia is viewed as a potential future fuel that will be critical in decarbonizing key industries such as shipping, heavy goods…

Axpo announced plans to build another green hydrogen facility at its run-of-river power plant in Brugg, Switzerland, the latest move in the company’s rapid growth of its green hydrogen sector. Axpo has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with regional partners, reaffirming its plan to distribute climate-friendly hydrogen to regional filling stations. The initiative will contribute significantly to the decarbonisation of the Swiss mobility industry. Green hydrogen, as one of the most climate-friendly energy sources, particularly for industry and transportation, will be critical in realizing Switzerland’s and the European Union’s decarbonisation strategies. Axpo is Switzerland’s largest producer and Europe’s largest…

According to Saudi Press Agency, the Saudi cabinet has assigned the Kingdom’s energy minister to negotiate and sign a prospective Memorandum of Understanding with China in the field of hydrogen energy, citing the cabinet’s weekly statement. Additionally, the cabinet allowed the Minister of Health to consider and sign a draft agreement with the World Economic Forum to promote prudent health care. Saudi Arabia has committed to reaching net zero emissions by 2060, without jeopardizing its status as the world’s largest oil producer, with the Crown Prince announcing a decade-long climate action investment of SR700 billion ($187 billion).

Heliogen, Inc. and Bloom Energy Corporation announced that they have combined their technologies to generate green hydrogen using Heliogen’s concentrated solar energy system and the Bloom Electrolyzer. The demonstration, which took place in Lancaster, California, successfully created hydrogen and demonstrated the numerous benefits of merging the firms’ complementary technologies to accomplish low-cost green hydrogen generation. Heliogen’s artificial intelligence-enabled concentrated solar energy system is meant to generate carbon-free steam, power, and heat using abundant and renewable solar energy. When used in conjunction with Bloom’s patented solid oxide, high-temperature electrolyzer, hydrogen may be produced 45 percent more efficiently than with low-temperature PEM or…

President Biden signed the $1.2 trillion bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act into law. This Act has a number of provisions unique to hydrogen that will accelerate the deployment and investment in this new industry in the United States. “Through coordination across our broad membership, the Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Energy Association (FCHEA) has long been leading the charge working with House, Senate, and Administration officials on policies necessary to launch the American hydrogen economy,” said FCHEA President & CEO Frank Wolak. “I am thrilled by the passage of this bill, which represents the strong bipartisan support for the hydrogen…

Austria’s first off-site production plant for “green” hydrogen will be built by Energie Steiermark in Gabersdorf in southern Styria. With an investment of around 10 million euros, a new type of production plant will be realized on a 10,000 square meter site. A large-scale photovoltaic plant with a collector area of 6,000 square meters is being built and combined with the resources of an existing biogas plant. “This is another step in our comprehensive sustainability strategy. Construction will start in spring 2022, and completion is planned for the end of the year,” said the management duo Christian Purrer and Martin…

Octopus Hydrogen, Octopus Renewables, and MIRA Technology Park announced plans to develop a green refueling forecourt on-site at MIRA Technology Park that will provide hydrogen and electric vehicle charging to support the needs of the fastest growing cluster of automotive and mobility technology companies driving the mobility revolution. Octopus’s solution combines its hydrogen company, which focuses on offering green hydrogen-as-a-service to accelerate adoption, with Octopus Renewables, which will supply energy via a purpose-built 7MW ground-mounted solar array adjacent to the MTP forecourt. MTP is home to 40 global titans of the zero-carbon mobility revolution, with an increasing number focusing on…

ITM Power announced the signing of a contract for the supply of 12MW of electrolysis equipment to be installed in 2022 and recognized in the fiscal year 2022/23. Due to business sensitivity, the customer and location remain private. This project was previously included in the contracts backlog (during negotiation) and has been transferred to work in progress.
