By 2025, Hyundai Oilbank plans to build a blue hydrogen ecosystem capable of producing 100,000 metric tons of hydrogen per year and converting carbon dioxide created during the production process into commercial items like as dry ice. The South Korean energy company claims that the ecosystem would harvest hydrogen from natural gas and refinery byproducts and remove carbon to turn the hydrogen “blue.” The hydrogen will then be transported, delivered, and supplied to clients in order to generate power, while the carbon eliminated will be used to create items such as building materials and fertilizers. Although hydrogen itself is colorless,…

The Hamburg Green Hydrogen Hub’s partners, especially Shell, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI), Vattenfall, and the municipal corporation Wärme Hamburg, can remain confident about securing EU financing to carry out their ambitions. The Hamburg project has been shortlisted by the German Federal Ministry of Economics for funding under the EU’s “Important Projects of Common European Interest” (IPCEI) initiative. The shortlist consists of 62 projects selected from an initial pool of approximately 200 projects that applied for funding through the IPCEI initiative. The HH-WIN project, led by the Hamburg gas network, is also on the short list. It will establish the pipeline…

KOGAS has forged a strategic alliance with GS Caltex to establish a business producing and supplying liquefied hydrogen. The two companies intend to construct a 10,000-ton-per-year liquid hydrogen mega station and to supply liquefied hydrogen to the Seoul metropolitan area and the nation’s core region in the future. The project is meant to extract hydrogen from natural gas, convert it to liquid hydrogen, store it using LNG cold energy, and then transport it via tank lorries to liquid hydrogen charging stations around the metropolitan region. The facility is expected to be operational by December 2024. Because liquefied hydrogen has an…

Bee’ah, the UAE’s premier integrated environmental, recycling, and waste management organization, is developing the Middle East’s first ‘waste-to-hydrogen’ plant. The project involves the construction of a green hydrogen producing facility and a hydrogen vehicle fueling station in conjunction with Chinook Sciences of the United Kingdom. Bea’ah, which also has projects in Saudi Arabia, has been developing its alternative energy credentials. By situating the waste-to-hydrogen plant near to the fueling station, the project will overcome the costs associated with hydrogen transportation. The fueling station will use green hydrogen produced by a waste-to-hydrogen generator using non-recyclable plastic and wood debris. The green…

Toyota Mirai has achieved a new world record for the most distance traveled by a hydrogen-fueled vehicle in a single fill. The trip began at 5:43 a.m. on Wednesday, May 26th, from the HYSETCO hydrogen station in Orly and concluded after driving 1003 kilometers on a single fill. The drive was completed on public roads south of Paris in the Loir-et-Cher and Indre-et-Loire regions, with the mileage and consumption verified by an independent body. According to the manufacturer, green hydrogen was used during the effort and the average fuel consumption was 0.55 kg/100km, with Mirai having a hydrogen storage capacity…

Ørsted and HOFOR (Greater Copenhagen Utility) have agreed to obtain green energy for a portion of the possible 1.3 GW Green Fuels for Denmark initiative to develop sustainable fuels in the Greater Copenhagen area. As part of the deal, Ørsted and HOFOR will collaborate to enable Ørsted to purchase power generated from HOFOR’s 250 MW Aflandshage offshore wind farm in the Oresund Strait. Simultaneously, HOFOR has agreed to locate the offshore wind farm’s substation on the grounds of Avedre Power Station. Ørsted and HOFOR will collaborate to realize technical and commercial synergies between the two projects. The future collaboration and…

In a draft of its growth strategy due out in June, the Japanese government plans to deploy 1,000 hydrogen refueling stations for fuel-cell vehicles across the country by 2030.

The entire concept of the liquid carbon dioxide value chain in Lithuania, and potentially in the Baltic region, will be evaluated for this purpose, with the port of Klaipeda serving as the focal point.

“WINFRID” is the response of the TechnologieRegion Karlsruhe (TRK) to the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of the Environment’s request for funding to establish a “model region for green hydrogen.”

The collaboration will help to popularize hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, which have been largely ignored by consumers due to a lack of charging stations.
