Enel Green Power and FNM have signed an MoU to discover and define the best way to supply green hydrogen for mobility as part of the “H2IseO” project. The deal, signed by FNM Chairman Andrea Gibelli and Enel Green Power CEO Salvatore Bernabei, provides for the creation of a joint working group to define and recommend the most suitable solutions. The H2IseO project, promoted by FNM in partnership with Trenord, will make it possible to build the first Italian Hydrogen Valley in Lombardy, specifically in Sebino and Valcamonica. The key objectives of the project are: the procurement of new hydrogen-powered…

Global infrastructure and energy provider ATCO has signed an agreement to purchase the rights to build the 325MW Central West Pumped Storage Hydro Project near Yetholme, Central West NSW. The 325MW pumped storage hydro project would be capable of delivering 2,600MWh of stored energy for up to eight hours as required, ensuring low-cost, long-term storage of energy. The project is situated near Yetholme, 30 kilometers from Bathurst, adjacent to the planned Central West-Orana Renewable Energy Zone (CWOREZ). It is situated in close proximity to major clean energy resources and a 330kV grid link serving the Sydney Load Center. The venture has…

Extreme E with AFC Energy has launched the hydrogen fuel cell generator which will play a key role in the opening season of this new electric racing series, starting April 2021. This technology will allow Extreme E to charge its race fleet using zero emission energy, with the only by-product being water for utilization elsewhere at each of its five races. AFC Energy has worked closely with Extreme E to design and complete a bespoke fuel cell and operating system, requiring a detailed understanding of the extremities of conditions in each race location to support the system’s deployment in being…

The Frames Group and Twinning Energy have teamed up together to deliver hydrogen mobility solutions, including local, green hydrogen generation options. The cooperation was formalized by the purchase of a 50 percent shareholding in Twinning Energy by the Frames Group. The transition from fossil fuels to clean energy is on the rise, with hydrogen having the ability to change the way we are actually thinking about transport and mobility. Hydrogen-driven vehicles or FCEVs (Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles) are an important building block in the decarbonization of the transport and mobility industries. The combination of mobility solutions provided by Twinning Energy,…

Enel Green Power has been awarded 34.5 MW of new renewable energy for two wind projects and 27.2 MW of repowering power for current hydroelectric plants at the fourth FER auction conducted by GSE (Gestore Servizi Energetici). In addition, for five solar projects on the roofs of Enel buildings, 0.83 MW of new renewable energy was awarded to Enel Green Power and Enel Produzione in the fourth FER register. With regard to the current wind capacity, the two plants will be located in Sicily and Campania, and construction work will begin in 2021 and 2022, respectively, with the start of service…

The European Marine Energy Center (EMEC) is partnering with Highlands and Islands Airports (HIAL) to decarbonize heat and power at Kirkwall Airport using renewable hydrogen technologies. Supported by the Scottish Government through Highlands and Islands Enterprise, the project will see the construction and demonstration of a new hydrogen combustion engine by Doosan Babcock at Kirkwall Airport in Orkney in 2021. This project is part of a program of initiatives led by EMEC and HIAL to decarbonize the airport. A variety of opportunities have been found in the energy use research carried out by EMEC through the ReFLEX Orkney program. The study…

Cubico has joined OSMI Australia as a joint venture partner in the Delburn wind farm and will buy 100 percent of the project prior to the start of construction. OSMI will continue to be the public face of the project through the agreements.
