Volvo Tests Hydrogen Combustion Trucks as Industry Weighs Cost Advantage Against Emissions Trade-Offs
Volvo has begun on-road trials of hydrogen internal combustion engine trucks in Europe, signaling a renewed push toward alternative decarbonization pathways that leverage existing engine platforms rather than fully replacing them.
TotalEnergies and Masdar have agreed to form a $2.2 billion joint venture to consolidate their onshore renewable portfolios across nine…
APAC Hydrogen Pipeline Stalls as Less Than 12% of Capacity Reaches Construction Outside China
Across the Asia Pacific region, a pipeline of more than 56 GW of planned green hydrogen capacity is translating into just 6.46 GW under construction, highlighting a widening execution gap in one of the world’s most closely watched energy transition markets.
Global renewable power capacity reached 5,149 gigawatts (GW) by end-2025, following a record 692 GW addition that marked a 15.5% annual increase, with renewables capturing 85.6% of all new capacity expansions.
At the Etzel salt cavern site in Lower Saxony, approximately 90 tonnes of hydrogen, equivalent to around one million standard cubic meters, have been injected into repurposed underground caverns as part of a live pilot designed to test storage performance under real operating conditions.
Lhyfe Revenue Doubles but Losses Deepen as Green Hydrogen Scaling Costs Outpace Market Growth
Revenue growth in Europe’s green hydrogen sector continues to lag behind capital intensity, with Paris-listed Lhyfe reporting a near doubling of annual revenue to approximately €10 million in 2025 while posting a net loss of €51 million, up sharply from €29.2 million a year earlier.
The Sedgwick County Commission approved a moratorium on new battery energy storage system applications through March 11, 2027. The decision reflects a widening disconnect between the pace of grid-scale storage deployment and the readiness of local governance structures to evaluate and regulate these projects.
Rolls-Royce has begun construction of its first large-scale battery energy storage system in the domestic market, signaling a strategic shift from global deployments toward participation in one of Europe’s most advanced storage ecosystems.
Daimler Truck AG, Volvo Group, and Toyota Motor Corporation have signed a non-binding agreement to jointly advance fuel cell systems through their existing joint venture, cellcentric.
Italy’s €6B Hydrogen Contract-for-Difference Scheme Tests Economics of Industrial Decarbonization
Brussels’ approval of Italy’s €6 billion ($6.9 billion) hydrogen support scheme comes at a moment when verified green hydrogen output in the country remains near industrial infancy, with production estimated at just 27 tonnes per day.
