Airbus has chosen to focus its work on metallic hydrogen tanks in a complementary manner by establishing Zero-Emission Development Centers (ZEDC) at its Bremen (Germany) and Nantes locations (France). The ZEDC’s mission is to establish cost-competitive cryogenic tank production in order to facilitate the successful market launch of ZEROe and to speed the development of hydrogen-propulsion technologies. Tank structural design and integration are critical to the performance of a future hydrogen aircraft. The technology developments will span the entire product and manufacturing process, from primary components to assembly, systems integration, and cryogenic testing of the finished liquid hydrogen (LH2) tank…

Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd. (CMAL) has appointed AqualisBraemar LOC to collaborate on the design of an emission-free hydrogen fuel cell sea-going passenger and automobile ferry— a first for Europe. This is a component of the Horizon 2020-funded HYSEAS III project. “AqualisBraemar LOC understand the important role the maritime industry has to play in the global fight for climate change. Whilst tackling marine emissions is a global responsibility, we are also proud to be supporting CMAL, in its role as part of a Scottish-led consortia, in building up world-leading competence in alternative clean fuel systems, which harnesses local marine renewable sources.” Graham Dallas,…

Shell has opened the world’s first operational hydrogen bus filling station for the Groningen Drenthe public transportation agency. Additionally, Shell is equipping the station with green-certified hydrogen, allowing buses to be refueled on-site. This filling station is equipped to service 20 Qbuzz hydrogen buses. Lisa Montanari, Hydrogen Commercial Manager at Shell Netherlands, said, “Hydrogen is real pioneering. For example, we use certified green hydrogen here, until we can produce green hydrogen ourselves. We regularly test the filling point to ensure that it functions as optimally as possible. We started building even though the market and infrastructure for hydrogen are still…

Studies examining how Malta’s gas-fired power station could be converted to run on hydrogen are in the hands of the authorities.

Everfuel A/S has taken over ownership and operation of the hydrogen fueling station in Hvam, Norway, northeast of Oslo. This is the first of two fueling stations that Everfuel A/S acquired in November 2020. This is Everfuel’s first hydrogen station in Norway, a critical step toward implementing the company’s green hydrogen fueling plan for trucks, buses, and cars connecting Scandinavia’s major transportation routes. Customers have been encouraged to participate in ongoing testing of various systems, including payment solutions and data transfer, over the next few weeks. This signifies that the station is operational and ready to supply green hydrogen, but with…

PIRIOU was recently notified in writing by the Occitanie Region of an order for the operation of a 70m suction dredger for the purpose of maintaining the Gulf of Lion’s ports. This modern and high-performance dredge, designed in partnership with the Toulouse naval architectural firm LMG Marin, will have a transport capacity of 1,500 m3 of silt. Additionally, it will be fitted with a sling capable of transporting sand up to 32 meters deep and a front unloading gear for beach relining. By incorporating a hydrogen fuel cell, the ship’s diesel usage can be reduced by up to 20%. Awarded…

This is Everfuel’s first hydrogen station in Norway, and it marks a significant step forward in the company’s green hydrogen fuelling plan for trucks, buses, and cars connecting Scandinavia’s major traffic corridors.

Hydrogen Utopia International Ltd., through its Polish subsidiary Hydropolis United sp. z o.o, inked a contract with SWECO. The projected cost of the Concept Design and EIA report is GBP 100,000.

These advancements will also help it achieve one of its goals: developing a green hydrogen value chain to position our country as a European technological and industrial leader in a critical energy vector for electrifying industry and heavy transportation.

Sempra Energy has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) of the United States Department of Energy (DOE), laying the groundwork for a collaborative effort to advance future net-zero energy systems. The MOU, which builds on nearly a decade of ongoing collaboration, commits both parties to continuing research and development of innovative solutions to help shape a lower-carbon future through technology and applications that can withstand growing energy demand and widespread adoption while advancing future innovation. Sempra Energy and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory are extending their long-standing relationship to enhance the development of…
