This year, the development of low-cost by-product hydrogen for transportation will begin in earnest.

ROSATOM, a world leader in technology, and the EDF Group, a world leader in low-carbon energy solutions, have agreed to collaborate on the production of green hydrogen in Russia and Europe. The EDF-ROSATOM agreement, in particular, seeks to establish projects in the sectors of mobility and industrial complex decarbonisation, and anticipates collaboration on emerging CO2-neutral hydrogen technologies that will aid in the fight against global warming. ROSATOM’s R&D goals include hydrogen energy. The Russian nuclear industry has enormous technical and scientific potential for developing hydrogen production – both through electrolysis, one of the most environmentally sustainable methods of hydrogen production,…

This network gives the hydrogen community hope that the industry will be able to rapidly get the necessary stations online in order to meet the demand and timing of the OEMs.

MUFG Bank, a Japanese bank, is funding the expansion of a hydrogen fuel station network in the United States as part of its climate change sustainability management plan.

Following international climate talks, Sydney experts from the Faculty of Engineering discuss the future of hydrogen energy, renewables and advanced manufacturing, and the investment that’s needed to ensure Australia comes out on top. Dr Yi-Sheng “Eason” Chen is a researcher and hydrogen expert in the School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering. He believes hydrogen could transform Australia’s energy market but says there is one big roadblock in the way of a meaningful uptake. “Hydrogen wreaks havoc in many alloys, leading to embrittlement that can cause catastrophic failure. This is a very serious issue for any industry in which structures are exposed…

Both parties recently signed a contract to that effect. According to the document, they plan to produce hydrogen in Huntorf using renewable energy (wind power), store it, and build transportation facilities to make it accessible to industry and the mobility market.

This is part of Nespresso’s plan to minimize its own carbon footprint, with the famous coffee company striving for net zero emissions across its supply chain by 2022

Since the end of January, trucks and private cars have been able to use the first such station, which was opened by Agrola in Rothenburg. In total, Switzerland now has seven hydrogen filling stations.

Greens also want to increase the country’s hydrogen production, calling for “at least ten gigawatts of electrolysers by 2030,” which is double the amount the German government is aiming for in its hydrogen strategy.

According to Carmen Schwabl, managing director of rail operator LNVG, commercial operations will begin next March after a lengthy trial period on a 123-kilometer (76-mile) track in Lower Saxony, Germany.
