Hydrogen embrittlement poses significant challenges for integrating hydrogen into existing natural gas pipelines. This phenomenon, where metals become brittle and fracture due to the penetration of hydrogen, can compromise the integrity of steel pipelines.
This research is essential given Iran’s untapped renewable energy resources and the ongoing dependence on fossil fuels. By integrating techno-economic analysis with multi-criteria decision-making methods, the researchers identify optimal sites and technologies for wind-to-hydrogen systems.
A Spanish infrastructure company, Redexis, announced a significant milestone for Spain’s energy sector. The Madrid-based firm has started injecting hydrogen, produced from renewable energy sources, into the country’s natural gas network through Spain’s first dedicated hydrogen pipeline.
The 2026 Hyundai Nexo is set to debut in 2025 with a revamped design and is expected to offer nearly 500 miles of range, a significant improvement over its predecessor.
South Korea’s Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) has entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Czech Hydrogen Technology Platform (HYTEP) to collaborate on clean hydrogen initiatives.
US engine makers like GE and Pratt & Whitney are lagging behind in developing hydrogen propulsion systems for aircraft, a concern voiced by Airbus.
The Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited (MRPL) has announced its ambitious plan to set up its first green hydrogen unit by 2026.
Norwegian energy company Equinor and its partner RWE have recently announced decision to halt ambitious plan to export hydrogen to Germany. This project aimed to facilitate the transportation of low-carbon hydrogen from Norway to Germany, intending to aid Europe’s largest economy in reducing its dependence on fossil fuels. The primary reason for terminating the project centers around the economic feasibility and market readiness for significant hydrogen imports. According to Equinor, the current market conditions do not support large-scale hydrogen exports, making the project non-viable. Despite halting the export plans, Equinor remains committed to hydrogen as part of its energy strategy.…
