Under a new Memorandum of Understanding, Origin Energy and Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) will collaboratively examine prospects to enhance the supply chain for export-scale green ammonia in Australia. Origin and MOL will investigate how Australian green ammonia projects could supply critical downstream markets beginning in 2026, with a joint feasibility study expected to be completed by December 2021. Origin is advancing a number of export-scale green hydrogen projects across Australia to address growing international and local demand for low-carbon fuels, including in Bell Bay, Tasmania, where Origin is also advancing a separate $3.2 million feasibility study into green ammonia production.…

Trafford Green Hydrogen reviled that Manchester, United Kingdom, is set to see a significant increase in its hydrogen capabilities with the filing of a planning application for the city’s first hydrogen fuel hub. According to the corporation, the 200MW hydrogen fueling hub will be the largest in the UK and would provide businesses in the Greater Manchester region with simple access to hydrogen fuel. This will benefit firms who rely on hydrogen for transportation fleets or for heating – both of which are low-carbon. Trafford Green hydrogen will create the hydrogen fuelling center at the Trafford Low Carbon Energy Park.…

Nel Hydrogen US, a subsidiary of Nel ASA, has been awarded a contract by a significant utility in the United States for a 1.25 megawatt (MW) containerized PEM electrolyzer. Nel Hydrogen US has been awarded a purchase order for a 1.25 MW PEM electrolyzer to be installed at a nuclear power station in the United States, as part of a ground-breaking project for carbon-free hydrogen production. “This project represents an important first step toward developing a regional supply of zero carbon hydrogen, while supporting clean baseload electricity resources on the grid,” says Stephen Szymanski, Vice President Sales and Marketing at…

Rapid growth in the clean energy economy has necessitated the formation of skilled and capable technical professional consortiums to service the rising demand for hydrogen. In response to this expansion, Lone Cypress Energy Services, LLC, a prominent project management and engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) business, has formed American Hydrogen, LLC with Reset Energy, a leading maker of highly engineered sustainable energy technology. American Hydrogen combines a century of successful engineering design, production, and implementation across the broader energy sector. American Hydrogen has leveraged this experience to develop a suite of unique hydrogen generating, storage, and distribution technologies that offer…

Hyzon announced the signing of a trial agreement with Total Transport Services Inc (TTSI), a well-known port trucking company in Southern California and a leading provider of logistics services with a strong focus on import distribution in the United States and Canada. Hyzon will equip TTSI with a Class 8 heavy-duty fuel cell electric truck for a 30-day trial in Q4. The truck, which will be based on a Freightliner Cascadia chassis from 2022, is planned to have a top speed of 600 mph and a range of up to 400 miles. Due to these specifications, the truck can be…

bp Australia released the results of its feasibility assessment for a large-scale green hydrogen and ammonia generation facilities in Western Australia. The study concluded that producing green hydrogen and green ammonia on a large scale in Australia is technically viable. Its findings also bolster bp’s conviction that Western Australia, with its vast potential solar and wind resources, existing infrastructure, and proximity to large, long-term markets, is an ideal location for developing large-scale renewable energy assets capable of producing green hydrogen and/or green ammonia for domestic and export markets. Green hydrogen is generated by electrolyzing water with renewable energy. It can…

ENEOS Corporation will begin a demonstration using hydrogen extracted from methylcyclohexane (“MCH”), an organic hydride that acts as a carrier for hydrogen, at ENEOS refining facilities, with the goal of developing a CO2-free hydrogen supply chain. This is the first demonstration of MCH dehydrogenation in Japan, utilizing existing refining facilities. ENEOS has reached an agreement with the Advanced Hydrogen Energy Chain Association for Technology Development to purchase MCH for the demonstration (formed by Chiyoda Corporation, Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha, Mitsubishi Corporation and Mitsui & Co., Ltd.; “AHEAD”). AHEAD will manufacture MCH using hydrogen derived from Brunei Darussalam’s wasted electricity. This…

After announcing the commencement of the development of its 600 kW powertrain for use in 19-seat aircraft late last year, ZeroAvia has reached the first significant milestone for the HyFlyer II program. The ground test, pictured below, utilized ZeroAvia’s 600kW flight-intent motor to tow the company’s new 15-ton HyperTruck mobile ground testing platform across the tarmac. The HyperTruck, based on heavy-duty military vehicles, is sized for the company’s ZA-2000 2MW+ powertrain, which can be used to test hydrogen-electric aircraft with 40-80 seats. The ground tests of the 600kW propulsion system help keep the company’s HyFlyer II program on schedule. The…

Namibia is expected to receive approximately N$682,3 million (around US$45m) in funding from the German government to support research into green hydrogen ventures. The financing, which is around 40 million euros, was revealed on Tuesday in conjunction with the publication of the green hydrogen request for proposals (RFP) and the presentation of the second Harambee Prosperity Plan (HPPII) first quarter report. Obeth Kandjoze, Namibia’s national planning commissioner, stated that in addition to investigating the viability of Namibia utilizing green hydrogen, the funds will be used to establish the Green Hydrogen Council of Namibia. Kandjoze noted that Namibia is cooperating with…

A Solaris Urbino 12 hydrogen bus will operate numerous routes across the attractive town of Wels in the Austrian state of Upper Austria during the next few days. The vehicle will be tested as part of Austria’s first Hydro-Motion mobility project, which is a collaboration between the Austrian state of Upper Austria, the town of Wels, the transport companies Fronius and Solaris, as well as the transportation service providers Wels Linien, SAB Tours, and OVV. On 10 August, a press conference was organized in the Austrian town of Wels to announce an innovative and entirely climate-friendly mobility initiative. A Solaris…
