Hamburg is beginning construction of an infrastructure link designed to connect local hydrogen production with Germany’s emerging national hydrogen backbone and the wider European gas network, as the city moves from individual hydrogen projects toward an integrated industrial supply system.

Masdar has begun commercial operations at its 35 MW/70 MWh Royle Barn Road battery in Rochdale, northern England, adding another grid scale storage asset to the UK’s rapidly expanding battery market as the country accelerates investment in flexibility to support a more renewable power system.

The UK is putting public money behind technologies designed to store electricity for at least 100 hours, reflecting a growing recognition that a power system increasingly dependent on wind and solar cannot rely solely on short duration batteries to manage prolonged periods of low renewable generation.

Hydrogen equities are once again showing how quickly investor enthusiasm can turn when financing conditions tighten. On August 20, FuelCell Energy, Bloom Energy and Plug Power all moved lower, with FuelCell Energy experiencing the sharpest intraday decline.

Fervo Energy raised 1.89 billion dollars in a single share sale in May, the largest climate tech listing of the…

Global hydrogen demand surpassed 100 million tonnes in 2025, yet low emissions hydrogen still accounted for only around 1% of production.

The cancellation of Germany’s HyScale 100 project for a second time exposes a problem that increasingly defines Europe’s green hydrogen market: the region can assemble ambitious project pipelines and substantial public funding, but converting those plans into financeable industrial assets remains difficult.

The world’s largest battery maker says 20 of its plants are now carbon neutral and its supply chain will follow…

Europe’s electrolyzer manufacturing industry has the capacity to produce about 8.49 GW of equipment annually, yet the region’s much larger problem is increasingly on the demand side.
