Nine companies from Korea, mainland China, France, and Hong Kong formalized a hydrogen ecosystem agreement at the International Hydrogen Development Symposium 2026, outlining a coordinated effort to build a full hydrogen value chain in Hong Kong by 2030.

India’s Central Electricity Authority has set a target of 27 GW of pumped storage capacity by 2031-32, part of a…

The Lawson well in central Saskatchewan returned hydrogen concentrations of up to 286,000 parts per million when results were confirmed…

Since the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz in late February 2026, close to 20% of global LNG supply…

Germany recorded 573 hours of negative day-ahead electricity prices in 2025, up from 459 hours in 2024 and 301 in…

A projected €6.7 billion investment is now central to Europe’s emerging hydrogen transmission strategy, as Spanish infrastructure operator Enagás outlines plans for a cross border hydrogen backbone that would connect Portugal, Spain, France, and Germany through a dedicated energy corridor.

The efficiency limitations of water electrolysis remain one of the largest technical and economic barriers to scaling green hydrogen production. While renewable electricity costs have declined sharply over the past decade, the oxygen evolution reaction inside electrolyzers continues to require high energy input, slowing system efficiency and sustaining dependence on expensive precious metal catalysts such as iridium and ruthenium.

The United States installed 9.7 GWh of new energy storage capacity during the first quarter of 2026, setting a record for the period and reinforcing how rapidly battery deployment is becoming tied to grid reliability concerns, electricity price volatility, and the accelerating power requirements of artificial intelligence infrastructure.

Global investment in electricity grids must rise from roughly USD 0.5 trillion annually in 2025 to about USD 1 trillion per year through 2035 if the world is to remain on a 1.5°C-compatible pathway.

The WAL project “Hydrogen from Lubmin” has secured entry capacity into the national hydrogen core network through a reservation agreement with transmission system operator GASCADE Gastransport GmbH, marking a shift from infrastructure preparation to commercially structured allocation of transport rights.
