A study of a 30 MW wind hydrogen project in Ireland puts annual value added at €71.2 million or €81.3 million depending on the value chain, yet the end use prices in its tables imply hydrogen sales of only €30 million to €38.5 million, and the GDP figures differ between abstract and text.
A 2030 optimisation study of five shipped fuels finds electricity is at least 41 percent of every delivered cost, shipping is minor even over 10,000 km, and liquid hydrogen needs about 76 times the shipping capex of ammonia per MW.
Chinese state media say the hydrogen industry is moving from pilots to scale, yet Baotou’s 7,800 tonne green hydrogen project is 0.02 percent of the 39 million tonnes China produced in 2025, and Inner Mongolia’s 12,694 tonnes is 0.03 percent.
A review in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy puts the room temperature hydrogen capacity of metal organic frameworks generally below 1 wt%, against a US DOE on-board system target of 6.5 wt%, and flags the gap between powders and prototypes.
PowerCell won a repeat order for 10 Marine System 225 fuel cell systems for two more GMI Group hydrogen electric bulk carriers, lifting the total to 24 systems and 5.4 MW across four vessels, with deliveries in 2027 and 2028.
Toyota and Isuzu unveiled the new Sora hydrogen bus on 14 October with a range above 300 km from a hydrogen tank about 20 percent smaller, but price, tank size and delivery dates are not stated.
A Chungbuk provincial council committee passed a full rewrite of the province’s hydrogen industry ordinance on 14 October, adding a five year plan, a promotion centre and support from production to use, with a final vote due on 21 October.
Jeonju met on 12 October to plan around Hyundai’s nearly 9 trillion won Saemangeum hub, but only 1 trillion won of it is a 200 MW electrolysis plant, against 5.8 trillion won for an AI data center.
