With over 90% of its electricity already generated from renewable sources, Newfoundland and Labrador holds a rare advantage among global hydrogen hopefuls. Its latest move—signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Port of Amsterdam—signals growing ambition to convert this domestic strength into an export-led green hydrogen economy.

OQ Gas Networks SAOG (OQGN), the exclusive operator of Oman’s natural gas transmission network, has signed a Term Sheet Cooperation Agreement with Belgium-based energy infrastructure group Fluxys.

A new class of recyclable, lightweight hydrogen tanks developed in South Korea is gaining commercial traction abroad, signaling a possible inflection point in the hydrogen mobility materials market.

When Liverpool’s hydrogen bus fleet managed just 450 journeys in its first year—averaging fewer than two trips per bus per month—it became emblematic of a national trend: high-profile hydrogen mobility trials are failing to deliver operational viability or cost-efficiency.

Electric Hydrogen’s 100 MW HYPRPlant will power what’s projected to become the world’s largest eFuels production facility—Infinium’s “Project Roadrunner” in Texas.

India and the European Union have launched two coordinated research and innovation calls worth ₹391 crore (€41 million) to tackle marine pollution and scale up waste-to-hydrogen technologies—two of the most urgent environmental and energy challenges confronting both economies.

On Sunday, Hydrom—Oman’s state-owned hydrogen orchestrator—finalized Project Development and Usufruct Agreements with India’s ACME Group, officially integrating Phases 2 and 3 of the Duqm-based hydrogen and ammonia project into the country’s centralized green hydrogen framework.

While most developers rely on simplified spreadsheets or generic LCOH calculators, Verdigy is betting on a more granular, system-integrated approach. At a recent Energy News webinar, Dr. Karen Das, simulation software lead at Verdigy, presented Energize, the company’s digital twin platform designed to simulate green hydrogen ecosystems with high fidelity and operational realism.

The recently concluded IPOSH (Innovative Process Design for Offshore Hydrogen) project—led by H2sea, Bosch Thin Metal Technologies, and TNO—claims to have achieved a 10–20% reduction in the Levelised Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH). While the figure is significant, the implications rest heavily on whether the novel system integration approach can translate into real-world commercial deployments.

Green hydrogen electrolysis at industrial scale remains an unfulfilled promise across much of Europe—but in Groningen, the Netherlands, a key facility has now produced its first hydrogen under elevated pressure and temperature, marking a milestone in real-world electrolysis testing.
