Lhyfe and STRABAG have signed a strategic co development agreement aimed at accelerating green hydrogen projects in Germany, with potential expansion into other European markets over time.
Germany’s battery storage market has become one of Europe’s fastest growing energy infrastructure segments, driven by volatile electricity pricing, renewable energy expansion, and increasing demand for grid flexibility. But the sector’s rapid growth has also exposed how heavily investment momentum depends on regulatory predictability rather than technology costs alone.
Power to Hydrogen has secured a binding commercial order from SINTEF for a 0.5 MW anion exchange membrane electrolyzer system that will support a carbon utilization project in Tiller, Norway.
Nordic Solar has brought its first co located Battery Energy Storage System project into commercial operation in Tiste, Lower Saxony, combining a solar installation with an 11 MW / 22 MWh battery system.
At the Juliusburg/Krukow solar park project in Germany, Vattenfall has begun using low emission steel supplied by SSAB for solar module substructures, reducing associated steel emissions by 67 percent compared with conventional steel production routes.
Spain’s hydrogen strategy is increasingly shifting beyond project announcements and toward the consolidation of upstream industrial capabilities, as reflected in the inclusion of the Association of Chemical, Basic, and Energy Industries of Huelva (Aiqbe) and the entry of Ariema into its ecosystem, signaling a growing focus on manufacturing capacity and supply chain integration rather than standalone hydrogen project development.
A proposed green hydrogen project in Spain’s Tarragona region is set to begin with an initial 25 MW off-grid electrolyzer system capable of producing about 1,250 tons of hydrogen annually, forming the first step in a broader development plan that could expand to 150 MW and 2,500 tons per year by 2032.
Oman is intensifying efforts to position itself as a long distance supplier of green hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives to European markets through a proposed export corridor linking the sultanate with the Netherlands.
The European Union imported 49.7 million tonnes of recyclable raw materials in 2025 while exporting 36.2 million tonnes to non-EU countries, widening the bloc’s net import position to 13.5 million tonnes, according to data released by Eurostat.
