Germany has launched its second €2.5 billion H2Global auction, aimed at securing long-term imports of green hydrogen and its derivatives—ammonia and methanol—from outside the EU.
Green hydrogen is expected to play a central role in the decarbonisation of hard-to-abate sectors, and by 2050, as much as 20% of global demand for the fuel and its derivatives could be met through international trade. That’s the key finding of a new report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), which outlines how emerging export hubs in Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East could reshape global energy flows—if financing conditions don’t get in the way.
In 2023, global investment in hydrogen technologies surpassed $200 billion, yet the gap between academic research and scalable solutions remains…
$5.8 billion green ammonia project on South Africa’s east coast is positioning itself as a low-cost contender in a competitive export landscape dominated by subsidies and infrastructure races.
As Europe races to decarbonize heavy industry, the viability of importing green hydrogen by ship from Oman to the Netherlands is being put to the test—both technologically and economically.
As South Korea intensifies efforts to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors and reduce reliance on imported fossil fuels, a new partnership between U.S.-based Utility and Korean engineering firm Kunwha E&C aims to commercialize local, biogas-to-hydrogen solutions.
The Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) in India has established two new centres of excellence—one focused on green hydrogen and the other on electric vehicles (EVs)—designed to anchor long-term research and skills development in clean energy technologies.
Getech and Sound Energy have formalized a strategic joint venture to explore Morocco’s untapped reserves of natural hydrogen and helium—resources increasingly viewed as disruptive to the long-term economics of clean energy and critical materials.
With regulatory approval secured from the Inner Mongolia Energy Bureau, China has officially authorized the development of its first inter-provincial green hydrogen pipeline—a 400km conduit that will deliver 100,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually from Ulanqab in Inner Mongolia to Sinopec’s Yanshan petrochemical facility in Beijing.
