Spanish-Japanese company Univergy Solar, will coordinate the “Julio Verne” green hydrogen project recently presented to the General Directorate of Energy Policy of the Xunta de Galicia, which will be carried out together with a group of experienced promoters such as Quantum, Soltec, ANFACO and Buran Habitat. The project arises from the collaboration during the last months between the Port Authority of Vigo and companies and entities such as Aclunaga, CTAG, Energylab, Neuwalme or Exportrends. The final objective of the “Jules Verne” project will be the generation and dispensing of renewable hydrogen for its application in logistic operations in the port…

The approval is a prerequisite to receiving approval for construction from ABS, and it is widely regarded as the most significant technical obstacle to the commercialization of the CH-2 ship and supply chain.

Toyota Tsusho UK Ltd. (TTUK), in collaboration with Germany’s Uniper, Siemens Energy UK&I, and the United Kingdom’s Associated British Ports (ABP) launched a feasibility study examining the decarbonization potential of hydrogen, dubbed Project Mayflower, at the end of March. The Project was chosen for the Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition, which is sponsored by the UK Department for Transport and conducted in collaboration with Innovate UK. At the Port of Immingham, which handles the largest volume of cargo in the United Kingdom, the technological and economic feasibility of producing, supplying, and using hydrogen will be evaluated in order to develop a…

Yara International ASA, JERA Co., Inc, and Idemitsu Kosan have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to explore the establishment of a domestic clean ammonia distribution network and bunkering business, accelerating Japan’s green energy transition. JERA and Yara established a collaboration in May 2021 to decarbonize Japan’s electricity generation. Since then, the two firms have been actively investigating opportunities for collaboration throughout the clean ammonia value chain with the goal of increasing demand for clean ammonia in Japan. Additionally, JERA and Yara have agreed to collaborate on a study of the ammonia bunkering and distribution industry in Japan’s industrial sector. By…

Sembcorp Utilities, a subsidiary of Sembcorp Industries (Sembcorp), Chiyoda Corporation (Chiyoda), and Mitsubishi Corporation (Mitsubishi) have signed a strategic collaboration Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to investigate the feasibility and implementation of a commercial-scale supply chain for decarbonised hydrogen in Singapore, leveraging Chiyoda’s proven hydrogen storage and transportation technology. The Japanese government announced the Asia Energy Transition Initiative (AETI) in May 2021, with the goal of assisting Asia in achieving sustainable economic growth and carbon neutrality, and the Japanese and Singaporean governments have begun discussions on energy transition. Japan will support Singapore’s energy transformation through the use of Japanese businesses’ technology,…

ADX Energy has signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with Windkraft Simonsfeld AG (WKS) through its wholly owned Austrian subsidiary, ADX VIE GmbH, for the provision of green power and the cooperative development of a green hydrogen production and underground storage project in the Vienna Basin (H2 Project). WKS is a significant wind energy producer in Austria, with plans to generate around 640 million kilowatt hours of electricity in 2022 (equal to the electricity consumption of 160,000 Austrian families) and operate 91 wind farms. WKS operates wind farms in the Vienna Basin adjacent to ADX’s Gaiselberg and Zistersdorf fields. The northern…

Ballard Power Systems reported that its proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell technology and solutions have now powered Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles – or FCEVs – in commercial Heavy- and Medium-Duty Motive applications for a cumulative total of over 100 million kilometers on highways worldwide.

A cement kiln at HeidelbergCement’s subsidiary Hanson UK’s Ribblesdale plant has been successfully operated using a net-zero fuel mix as part of a world-first demonstration of hydrogen technology. Hanson UK successfully implemented a mix of 100 percent climate-neutral fuels, including hydrogen, for commercial scale cement manufacturing for the first time, led by the British Mineral Products Association (MPA) and funded by the British Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). During the Ribblesdale demonstration, the proportion of fuels in the cement kiln’s primary burner was gradually increased to a completely net zero mix composed of tanker-delivered hydrogen, biomass components,…
