South Korea is a pioneer in the transition to a low-carbon hydrogen economy and clean transportation. By leveraging its command of the whole hydrogen value chain and collaborating with local industrial and institutional stakeholders, Air Liquide is actively contributing to the rapid growth of low-carbon hydrogen production in South Korea. Due to the country’s robust integrated infrastructure, the Group is committed to expanding its footprint into the majority of the regions. The South Korean government aspires to establish the country as a leader in the field of hydrogen transportation. Air Liquide is committed to invest across the whole hydrogen supply…

NWUAV was joined by a number of stakeholders on Thursday, July15, to commemorate the grand opening of their hydrogen fuel cell production facility. The NWUAV campus in McMinnville, Oregon is a one-of-a-kind UAV technology and manufacturing cluster, featuring UAV engineering, machining, wiring, engine manufacture, testing, and now UAV hydrogen fuel cell manufacturing. The grand opening ceremony featured a range of speakers, each with a unique perspective on the hydrogen fuel cell technology and manufacturing center’s ramifications. Chris Harris, President and Owner of Northwest UAV, opened the event by introducing everyone and discussing what has enabled this technology and the success…

On the northern island of Hokkaido, Japan’s largest hydrogen plant powered by offshore wind energy is set to open as part of a national effort to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The project, which is scheduled to commence operations in the year ending March 2024, will produce approximately 550 tons of hydrogen per year — enough to fuel more than 10,000 hydrogen vehicles. The initiative is a first step toward developing a domestic supply of hydrogen that is “green,” or derived from renewable energy. Green hydrogen produced from offshore wind energy is still uncommon globally – particularly in Japan, which is…

The first phase of an off-grid hydrogen-powered exhibition hall was unveiled in Shanghai’s Jiading district. The project is a collaboration between Shanghai International Automobile City and Tongji University. The exhibition hall prototype is the first of its kind in China, consisting of a refitted container housing the hydrogen fuel cell and an inflatable dome tent for activities. It is the brainchild of Wu Zhiqiang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a former professor at Tongji University. The full-size exhibition hall, which is scheduled to open by the end of this year, will encompass 500 square meters and…

The Development Bank of Wales has confirmed its backing for Llandrindod Wells-based Riversimple in a £1.5 million funding round to power consumer trials of Welsh hydrogen cars. HRH Pays a Visit Riversimple got a £580,000 investment from a syndicate of Welsh business angels led by lead investor Andrew Diplock earlier this month. The Wales Angel Co-Investment Fund, which is managed by the Development Bank of Wales, will provide match funding of £250,000. Seedrs’ crowd fundraising campaign is now fully funded, and the company has received advanced permission from HMRC for the Enterprise Investment Scheme, which provides tax incentives to qualifying…

JOGMEC, Irkutsk Oil Company (IOC), Toyo Engineering Corporation (TOYO), and ITOCHU Corporation (ITOCHU) have agreed to conduct a joint feasibility study (Phase2) of the blue ammonia value chain between eastern Siberia and Japan. This study will conduct a detailed analysis and develop a master plan for commercialization. JOGMEC launched the “Carbon Neutral Initiative” on April 1, 2021, with the goal of promoting various projects that contribute to the development of a carbon-neutral society. By maximizing the utilization of JOGMEC’s technical expertise in subsurface and surface characteristics, JOGMEC will bolster financial and technical assistance to Japanese enterprises seeking suitable locations for…

Hyundai will use the knowledge learned from these public initiatives to grow its zero emission commercial fleet business in the United States and form local relationships along the value chain.

Lily D’Ambrosio, the Minister of Energy, Environment, and Climate Change, announced two new grant programs to help the industrial sector prepare for renewable hydrogen by sponsoring a number of projects.

According to the consortium, this goal was formalized with the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU), which will see a feasibility study conducted into the possibility of creating the world’s first oceangoing hydrogen cruise ship.
