While proponents of hydrogen energy assert that it may generate well-paying employment while simultaneously delivering zero-emission electricity, several environmental advocacy groups are concerned about a proposal to establish a hydrogen center in New Mexico. According to these proponents, using fossil fuels to generate hydrogen could result in additional emissions from natural gas extraction and could divert attention away from the urgent need to switch to renewable energy sources. Around 30 organizations wrote a letter to New Mexico’s governor voicing their concerns. “New Mexico must prioritize comprehensive, durable, and enforceable climate legislation to light the pathway to a thriving, resilient New…

SunHydrogen, Inc., the developer of a ground-breaking technology for renewable hydrogen production utilizing sunlight and water, has entered into a 12-month sponsored research agreement with the University of Michigan. SunHydrogen will use the agreement to design and test extremely efficient catalysts for oxygen and hydrogen evolution that will reduce material costs while retaining a high solar-to-hydrogen conversion efficiency. Additionally, the university team will conduct a thorough technoeconomic analysis of SunHydrogen’s complete process. Dr. Nirala Singh, an assistant professor of chemical engineering at the University of Michigan, will lead the effort. Dr. Singh will lead the team, which will also include…

Snam has created HyAccelerator, the world’s first corporate-scale hydrogen startup accelerator program. The project officially began today with the launch of the first call for startups, which is open to all players involved in the hydrogen value chain, from transportation to storage and end applications. Cosma Panzacchi, Executive Vice President Hydrogen at Snam said, ‘HyAccelerator is aimed at boosting the development of the hydrogen ecosystem by focusing on the most promising technologies and facilitating their entry into the market. Through this initiative, Snam will come into contact with the most innovative startups in the sector at a global level, strengthening its role as…

The Department of Science and Innovations (DSI) and partners have given the project the thumbs up in their Hydrogen Valley Feasibility Study Report. The feasibility study, which was conducted in collaboration with Anglo American Platinum, clean energy solutions provider Bambili Energy, and energy and services business ENGIE, estimates that a hydrogen valley may generate up to 32,000 employment per year by 2030. The estimated gross domestic product (GDP) impact, direct and indirect, of H2 projects in the country is between $3,9 billion and $8,8 billion, if the hydrogen valley’s whole vision is realized. By 2050, this initiative might provide an…

A pair of multi-year SkatteFUNN projects in the field of Generation 2 Energy have been accepted by the Norwegian Research Council (NRC).

The partnership aimed to build a hydrogen plant with a capacity of 400 megawatts and an anticipated hydrogen production rate of about 150,000 kg per day.

For the world to achieve Net Zero energy by 2050, an unprecedented level of change, investment, and collaboration are required, and Cadent is dedicated to rising to the challenge as a company.

In a statement, Natascha Viljoen, CEO of Anglo American’s PGMs division, said, “This feasibility study with our partners has confirmed the possibility to develop new engines of economic activity through hydrogen.”

The gases hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) are positioned on opposite sides of a membrane that allows only single, positively charged hydrogen protons to flow through.

The Corporation aims to carry out this project as part of its global commitment to providing creative, long-term solutions for the water business.
