A multimillion-pound partnership between Octopus Hydrogen and Luxfer Gas Cylinders is opening the path for cleaner and greener heavy goods transportation and aviation. Luxfer Gas Cylinders, a global leader in high-pressure composite and aluminum cylinders, has partnered with Octopus Hydrogen, a subsidiary of green energy technology pioneer Octopus Energy, to specify and supply bulk gas transport modules that will transport green hydrogen across the United Kingdom. Luxfer’s 40-foot-long units, dubbed Multiple Element Gas Containers (MEGC), are capable of transporting 1.1 tonnes of hydrogen from the electrolyser plant to the site of application. They will be installed beginning in mid-2022 and…

Heliogen and Bloom Energy revealed plans to generate green hydrogen using only concentrated solar power and water, advancing the world’s transition to a zero-carbon future even faster. By combining near-continuous carbon-free electricity and steam generated by Heliogen’s Sunlight Refinery solar power generation system with Bloom Energy’s highly efficient solid oxide electrolyzer, the companies will produce green hydrogen that can be used in commercial and industrial applications in place of fossil-derived fuels. Bloom Energy’s steam electrolyzers are about 30% more efficient than low-temperature electrolyzers such as polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) and alkaline electrolyzers. Complementary technologies enable economically viable green hydrogen production…

Topsoe’s SynCOR technology enables the capture of more than 95% of CO2 emissions associated with the manufacture of blue hydrogen from natural gas at the recently announced Air Products facility in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. This new facility, based on Topsoe’s SynCORTM autothermal reforming technology, will recover over 95% of the CO2 produced and safely store it below. The facility will be powered by hydrogen-fueled energy, which will offset the remaining 5% of emissions at the site. The renewable energy complex will assist customers in the refining and petrochemical industries served by Air Products’ Heartland Hydrogen Pipeline in reducing their carbon…

Contact Energy and Meridian Energy aim to build the world’s largest green hydrogen plant in Southland, New Zealand – and McKinsey & Co estimate it may generate hundreds of millions of dollars in export revenue. Contact Energy and Meridian commissioned McKinsey & Co to conduct an investigation into the use of renewable energy in Southland to scale up the production of green hydrogen. McKinsey & Company estimates that global hydrogen demand might more than sevenfold to 553 million tonnes by 2050, with Southland poised to capitalize on this growing opportunity. The economic benefits described in the paper for a 600MW…

According to a feasibility study, the Cromarty Firth would be an ideal location for the UK’s largest green hydrogen electrolyser. The North of Scotland Hydrogen Programme’s ‘Distilleries Project’ found a number of sites adjacent to the Firth that are suitable for a 35MW electrolyser facility capable of producing up to 14 tonnes of green hydrogen per day by 2024. The project could be extended further to fulfill the growing need for green hydrogen in Scotland, the United Kingdom, and abroad. This zero-carbon fuel is a critical component of the Scottish Government’s decarbonisation strategy, as it would significantly contribute to the…

The lightweight composite materials are integrated with the system’s metal frame in the patent-pending onboard hydrogen storage system technology.

According to the Council, Steven Libbrecht, Daria Nochevnik, and Andrei Tchouvelev have all been appointed to the group.

The new facilities will raise the company’s current annual capacity of electrolysers from 75MW to 400MW when fully expanded, optimized, and ramped up by 2023.

PosHYdon is the world’s first operational offshore green hydrogen pilot. With this grant, the consortium will be able to begin all of the pilot’s activities. The consortium partners will cover the remaining costs.

The plant, which is located in Cádiz, Spain, is a fully integrated stainless steel production facility with an annual capacity of approximately one million tonnes.
