Mitsui & Co. and CF Industries Holdings, Inc. announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding that will lead the companies’ cooperative exploration of blue ammonia development opportunities in the United States. Blue ammonia is a term that refers to the process of producing ammonia (NH3) and removing its byproduct carbon dioxide (CO2) via carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). Demand for blue ammonia as a decarbonized energy source is predicted to increase dramatically, either for its hydrogen content or as a fuel in and of itself. “As countries and industries continue to develop plans to achieve net-zero carbon emissions, there is…

The Chemours Company has joined Hydrogen Europe, Europe’s largest organization dedicated to the advancement of fuel cell and hydrogen (FCH) technologies. Chemours joins Hydrogen Europe at a critical juncture at which investment in environmentally friendly hydrogen production via water electrolysis meets with global governments’ calls to speed the path to net-zero emissions. Chemours offers a number of products that contribute to the battle against climate change and increased usage of green hydrogen, including its NafionTM proton exchange membranes (PEM), which are at the heart of the hydrogen economy. NafionTM membranes and dispersions, renowned for their unmatched performance and durability, enabling…

Tallgrass Energy, LP announced that it has completed the acquisition of a 75% membership stake in Escalante H2 Power (EH2 Power). EH2 Power is creating a world-first hydrogen-to-power project at Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association, Inc.’s Escalante Generating Station near Prewitt, New Mexico, by turning the abandoned coal-fired power plant into a clean hydrogen-fired power plant. “Our acquisition of a 75 percent membership interest in EH2 Power further advances our overall hydrogen development and clean energy infrastructure strategy,” said Tallgrass CEO William R. Moler. “We believe the Escalante Station is uniquely positioned to be a proving ground for hydrogen-to-power in…

The Indian Railways has issued a tender for the operation of trains using a hybrid hydrogen fuel cell and battery-based technology as part of its efforts to reduce pollution and fuel costs. Initially, it intends to convert two diesel-electric multiple unit (DEMU) rakes on Northern Railway’s 89-kilometer Sonipat-Jind stretch using hydrogen power. The Indian Railways first intend to convert diesel-powered trains on the Northern Railway’s 89-kilometer Sonipat-Jind segment to run on hydrogen. The hydrogen fuel cell retrofit kit, which includes the balance-of-plant, energy storage, and hydrogen storage modules, will be used to replace the existing powertrain components onboard 1,600 horsepower…

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Research (EBRD) and Ukraine’s Gas Transmission System Operator (GTSOU) have teamed up to boost hydrogen development and use in the country. The parties signed a memorandum of understanding to formalize their collaboration on low-carbon hydrogen and the development of hydrogen supply chains, a first-of-its-kind arrangement. The EBRD and GTSOU previously signed a Memorandum of Understanding in April 2020 to establish a framework for promoting sustainable energy investments in Ukraine and lowering greenhouse gas emissions, particularly fugitive methane emissions, and air pollution. The EBRD regions are defined by a burgeoning renewable energy industry, which is…

Metatron specializes in the research, development, production and marketing of pressure regulators and engine control units for alternative fuels, as well as components for hydrogen technology.

Horisont Energi and the port plan to work together to export blue ammonia produced in Northern Norway from natural gas with carbon capture and storage to the Port of Rotterdam, where it will be received and distributed to satisfy predicted demand in North-western Europe.

Clean hydrogen is expected to play a key part in attempts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by governments and energy businesses around the world, however its future uses and pricing are unknown.

The ZAL Centre for Applied Aeronautical Research has added a 20-meter-high, 100-m3 hydrogen storage tank to its infrastructure. The tank, donated by Air Products, which will also supply the required gaseous hydrogen, instantly doubles the research center’s capacity. The new infrastructure was officially launched on Wednesday, August 4th, by Michael Westhagemann, Hamburg’s Senator for Economics and Innovation. The ZAL Center for Applied Aeronautical Research provides comprehensive facilities for over 30 partners, including Airbus, DLR, Lufthansa Technik, and ZAL GmbH, to conduct research into the future air transport business. They all agree on one thing: hydrogen is critical for climate neutrality.…

Global Energy Ventures has signed a non-binding MoU with Province Resources and Total Eren (collectively, the HyEnergy Project partners) to fund a technical and commercial feasibility study on exporting green hydrogen from the HyEnergy Project in Western Australia’s Gascoyne region to nominated markets in the Asia-Pacific region. GEV will conduct a feasibility study to determine the technical and commercial viability of the HyEnergy Project’s green hydrogen export. The scope of work comprises transporting hydrogen gas from an onshore production facility to an offshore ship loading buoy and ultimately to specified Asia-Pacific markets via GEV’s compressed hydrogen shipping system. The goal…
