In the quest for sustainable and efficient transportation, a team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has embarked on a groundbreaking journey. They are developing a disruptive technology that not only has the potential to enhance hydrogen transport and storage but could also play a pivotal role in decarbonizing the fossil-fuel-intensive long-haul trucking sector.
Cummins and Terex Advance, have joined forces to introduce hydrogen internal combustion engines (ICE) into Terex’s Commander Series. This collaboration aims to address emissions reduction and provide a viable, zero-carbon fuel option for the demanding world of concrete mixer trucks.
Hydrogen de France (HDF Energy) and naval architect CLYD have joined forces to establish HYNAVAL. This new company is dedicated to the design and retrofitting of hydrogen-powered boats, marking a noteworthy step toward eco-friendly maritime mobility.
Solaris has clinched a deal to supply TPER, Bologna’s municipal public transport operator, with 130 Urbino 12 hydrogen-powered buses, marking one of Europe’s largest fuel cell bus contracts.
SEA-KIT International has secured funding from the Zero Emissions Vessels and Infrastructure (ZEVI) competition to develop a revolutionary hydrogen-fueled Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV). Collaborating with the forward-thinking Marine2o, SEA-KIT aims to usher in a new era of emission-free vessel operation with a project called ZEPHR – Zero Emissions Ports Hydrogen Refilling Survey Vessel.
Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials, in collaboration with Hyundai Motor Company and Kia, has unveiled a groundbreaking achievement—the development of a hydrogen internal combustion engine tailored for passenger cars. This innovation marks a crucial leap forward in the pursuit of cleaner transportation solutions.
India is positioning itself as a pivotal green hydrogen refueling hub for the shipping industry, with Union Minister for Power and New and Renewable Energy RK Singh declaring that the global shipping sector will embrace green technology within the next decade.
BMW Chief Executive Oliver Zipse has made a significant plea to China, urging the nation to bolster its hydrogen network within urban areas and provide clear public charging standards. His aim is to stimulate the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and hydrogen-powered cars in the world’s largest automobile market.
American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Korea Hydrogen Industry Association (KHIA) and the University of Ulsan, Foundation for Industry Cooperation (UOUFIC) to develop a unique 40-seat tourism vessel.
Three UK-based companies – Viritech, HORIBA MIRA, and Intelligent Energy – have embarked on an ambitious journey to develop a commercially competitive hydrogen fuel cell-powered 44-tonne heavy-duty truck.
