An ideal hydrogen-natural gas combination was developed by the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), which is able to capture hydrogen into cage-like molecules that enhance storage efficiency. Pure hydrogen is held at extremely high pressure (>100 atmospheres) or low temperatures (−20°C), which is naturally a large economic hurdle to the storage of hydrogen, as opposed to hydrocarbons. Gwangju theorized that hydrogen trapping within ice-like crystals would make storage and transport of zero-emission fuel less demanding. These molecular cages exist in the natural environment and are known as “clathrate hydrates,” which are solid structures based on water, with cavities capable…

EKPO Fuel Cell Technologies (EKPO), a joint venture between ElringKlinger (60%) and Plastic Omnium (40%) continues to fill its order pipeline: EKPO has been given an exclusive multi-year contract by Aachen-based mobility company AE Driven Solutions (AEDS) to deliver fuel cell stacks of the type NM5-evo. The order is for a volume that is expected to be in the high double-digit million euro range. The stacks are designed to meet AEDS’s performance, durability, and smooth operation requirements and will be installed on delivery vehicles as part of the company’s system integration efforts with the goal of offering environmentally friendly drive…

He remarked that these should be his pyramids, according to a US publication. However, project staff are projected to be more skeptical of overseas investors

The company plans to join the green hydrogen revolution by producing hydrogen fuel using solar energy and seawater.

Salzgitter AG is now taking another significant step toward producing low-CO2 steel. This  marks the start of development on μDRAL, a demonstration plant for the manufacture of direct reduced iron, as part of the SALCOS – SAlzgitter Low-CO 2Steelmaking initiative (DRI). This is the world’s first iron ore direct reduction facility that can run on natural gas or hydrogen. In the first half of 2022, production will begin. The direct reduced iron will be utilized in the blast furnace and the electric arc furnace at the Peine plant to reduce the amount of pulverized injection coal. The plant has a…

Shanghai Refire Group is preparing to launch its hydrogen fuel cell technology in Europe after receiving Rijks Dienst Wegverkeer (RDW) certificates with the help of TÜV Nord.

With this new award from China’s leading vehicle manufacturer, Faurecia 1 can announce that it has received over €250 million in lifetime sales to date

A proposal to exclude hydrogen producers from paying the renewables charge on the power they consume has been slammed for failing to focus solely on green hydrogen and imposing an additional burden on ordinary consumers.

Volkswagen AG’s CEO uses Twitter to put pressure on the government and argue against the latest scientific findings. Volkswagen has focused on electromobility, so it has a financial interest as well.
