The cost and complexity of green hydrogen production remain among the most persistent barriers to scaling the sector, with conventional electrolysis systems requiring both significant electricity input and extensive infrastructure. A spin-off from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Photreon, is advancing an alternative approach that bypasses electricity altogether, attracting attention at Hannover Messe.

With hydrogen vehicle production timelines tightening across Europe, supply chain readiness is emerging as a key constraint, prompting the BMW Group to secure green hydrogen volumes for its Austrian manufacturing base through a new agreement with Lhyfe.

With demand for e-SAF projected to reach 36,000 tonnes by 2030 and surge beyond 160,000 tonnes by 2035, Europe’s aviation sector is entering a regulatory phase where compliance obligations are already outpacing industrial readiness, according to industry assessments cited by Scandinavian Airlines.

A 25MW electrolyzer installation capable of producing up to 3,700 tonnes of hydrogen annually marks a tangible step in Europe’s effort to anchor hydrogen supply in industrial clusters, as John Cockerill completes equipment deployment at the Hyoffwind project in Belgium’s Port of Zeebrugge.

A 60 GWh supply agreement for sodium-ion batteries signals a shift in the global energy storage market, where reliance on lithium-based chemistries is increasingly being challenged by emerging alternatives. The three-year partnership between CATL and HyperStrong marks the largest sodium-ion battery deal announced to date, highlighting growing confidence in the technology’s readiness for large-scale deployment.

Research led by the University of Kentucky is exploring an alternative pathway by converting coal into high-purity synthetic graphite, aiming to establish a domestic source for a material that remains critical to battery performance.

Germany’s target to reach up to 10 GW of domestic electrolyzer capacity by 2030 is increasingly shaping cross-border partnerships, as technology providers and infrastructure companies position themselves to capture industrial hydrogen demand.

Somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, a massive cargo ship pitches in a deep-water swell. The ambient temperature…

A 350 MW / 1,243 MWh battery energy storage project at Hams Hall in North Warwickshire, developed by BW ESS in partnership with EDF, will ultimately expand to 400 MW / 1,424 MWh following a second phase of development.

Spain has awarded 12.64 GWh per day of hydrogen injection capacity into its natural gas network, selecting 35 projects from 285 applications, a conversion rate that underscores both the scale of developer interest and the limited near-term capacity of existing infrastructure.
