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.
The question still remains: How do fuel cell vehicles perform? That depends largely on the hydrogen used. If the fuel cell vehicles could use 100 percent green hydrogen, they would have a 76 percent better carbon footprint than combustion engines, according to the ICCT. So they would not be too far removed from electric cars in the optimal scenario.
CMB and TSUNEISHI are collaborating to develop hydrogen internal combustion engine (H2ICE) technology for the industrial and marine markets in Japan. CMB.TECH, a subsidiary of CMB, has amassed considerable know-how and successfully developed concrete applications using dual fuel and monofuel hydrogen engines over the years. To speed the implementation of this ground-breaking technology in Japan, CMB and TSUNEISHI have decided to invest more funds in the Bingo Research Institute and rename the company “JPN H2YDRO CO.,LTD” to handle the import, marketing, and engineering services for H2ICE solutions in the country. In Japan, JPN H2YDRO CO.,LTD will open an H2ICE Application…
Deutsche Aircraft and Universal Hydrogen Co. established a technological partnership to accelerate aviation’s decarbonization, a global priority in the battle against climate change. The two businesses will collaborate to perform a design study for the Dornier 328 program that will include Universal Hydrogen’s modular capsule technology. “We see hydrogen as the only realistic approach foraviation to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement,” said Paul Eremenko, co-founder and CEO of Universal Hydrogen. “We are tackling the biggest obstacle to near-term hydrogen adoption: its delivery and distribution to airports and aircraft globally without costly infrastructure. This partnership with Deutsche Aircraft will…
