Japanese automaker Honda has announced its plans to launch a new fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) in Japan and North America starting in 2024. Honda’s FCEV will be equipped with a next-generation fuel cell system co-developed with US automaker General Motors.
Spanish engineering company, Antropia, claims to have developed a breakthrough technology that can significantly reduce the production costs of green hydrogen.
Germany, like many other countries, is looking to transition to renewable energy sources to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change. One of the energy carriers that has been gaining momentum in recent years is green hydrogen.
Australia’s Edify Energy is partnering with Siemens Energy Global GmbH to develop a green hydrogen production facility in Northern Queensland, called EGH2.
Enagás Renovables, Naturgy, and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) have announced a joint investment of €1,700 million in the start-up of a green hydrogen production plant in Andorra, Teruel. The project, known as the “Catalina” project, will generate 425 direct jobs and as many indirect jobs.
A group of students from Eco-Runner Team Delft in the Netherlands is working on developing the world’s most efficient hydrogen car, with the goal of driving at least 2056 kilometres on less than one kilogram of hydrogen. The team of engineers has been building more efficient hydrogen cars every year, but this latest prototype must be sturdier to cover the long distance, comparable to a ride from the north of the Netherlands to southern Spain.
The UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MoEI) and the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) have held a meeting to discuss bilateral cooperation in hydrogen, as part of the UAE-France Comprehensive Strategic Energy Partnership.
Nikola Corp. and Voltera have announced a partnership to create up to 50 HYLA-branded hydrogen fueling stations across North America over the next five years. This collaboration aims to develop an open network of commercial hydrogen refuelling stations that will support the deployment of zero-emission fuel cell electric trucks.
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati have developed a unique catalyst that can produce hydrogen gas from wood alcohol, without any carbon dioxide emissions. The development is expected to pave the way for the growth of the hydrogen-methanol economy, enabling a sustainable and eco-friendly source of energy generation.
South Korean natural gas power unit, SK E&S Co., has announced a joint venture with U.S. hydrogen company, Plug Power, to build a hydrogen gigafactory and research centre in South Korea.
