Uniper Energy and the Port of Rotterdam Authority have reached an agreement to promote green hydrogen production at the Uniper site on Maasvlakte. These ideas are based on the conclusions of a recent feasibility study and are consistent with the planned expansion of hydrogen infrastructure and the growing need for sustainable hydrogen in the Rotterdam petrochemical industry. This arrangement, outlined in a memorandum of understanding (MOU), is a significant milestone in the region’s continued growth of the hydrogen value chain. Rotterdam is home to more than half of all Dutch IPCEI* hydrogen projects. Uniper’s concept is also on the Dutch…

ZeroAvia has placed an order for Hyzon’s next generation of lightweight high-performance fuel cells. ZeroAvia will study the ground-breaking fuel cell for use in its zero-emission aircraft research program, which is primarily focused on hydrogen-electric solutions. ZeroAvia chose Hyzon’s fuel cell stack for this evaluation because it offers the highest power density in the industry. As certified by TUV Rheinland, Hyzon’s Gen3 fuel cell stack achieves a volumetric power density of more than 6.0 kW/liter and a gravimetric power density of more than 5.5 kW/kg, both of which are much higher than industry averages. These parameters are crucial in aviation…

A collaboration between Sasol and the Catalysis Institute at the University of Cape Town (UCT) has advanced the use of commercial iron catalysts, which can be produced cheaply and in large quantities at Sasol’s Secunda plant, to convert unavoidable or biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) and green hydrogen directly into a variety of green chemicals and jet fuel. This development represents a big step forward in South Africa’s application of CO2 hydrogenation technology. Sasol has been converting low-grade coal and gas into synthetic fuels and chemicals for decades using its Fischer Tropsch (FT) process. The company’s Secunda plant in Mpumalanga is…

Gen2 Energy and Vefsn municipality reached an agreement on the future acquisition and sale of two plots in Vefsn municipality for the large-scale production and shipment of green hydrogen. The parties agree that Gen2 Energy may acquire industries in Mosjen in order to construct green hydrogen production facilities, as well as access to quays for exporting green hydrogen to markets in Europe and Norway. Gen2 Energy will construct production facilities to ensure that green hydrogen is produced in huge quantities and sent to clients in 40 foot accounts. Jonas Meyer, general manager of Gen2 Energy says, – We are very…

The McGowan Government is planning to establish a $50 million fund, also included in the 2021-22 Budget, to expand local demand for renewable hydrogen in the transportation and industrial sectors and to create an incentive for additional investment in renewable hydrogen.

CAC-H2 of Singapore will own 80 percent of the operation, while Sweetman will control 20 percent and be responsible for providing wood feedstock as well as EPC engineering.

Mr Bamford, whose family is known as the builders of JCB construction equipment, started the fund in the hopes of encouraging further investment in hydrogen that is described as “green.” This item can be made using water obtained via a renewable energy source.

The parties plan to work together to construct steam methane reforming (SMR) with carbon dioxide collection and the delivery of natural gas to produce new fuel and marketable products on Sakhalin Island.

These two companies, as well as six other companies including the Yamanashi Prefectural Enterprises Bureau, will be receiving investment jointly with six other companies, including Tokyo Electric Power Company.

Hyundai shipbuilding in South Korea has created a collaborative venture to develop a liquid hydrogen fuel tank for ships. The project’s goal is to test-produce a gasoline tank for small ships by the end of the year, before moving on to develop tanks for larger boats. The advantage of liquid hydrogen over compressed gas is its high density, which allows for the storage of more energy in a given container for convenient transportation. Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (KSOE), a subsidiary of the Hyundai shipbuilding group, is collaborating on the project with the Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean…
