Fortescue Metals Group and Statkraft have agreed to amend and extend their existing power purchase agreement for the proposed Holmaneset green hydrogen and green ammonia facility, pushing the agreement horizon to 2029 and converting it into a 10-year power supply commitment.
Plug Power confirmed the installation of its 5 MW GenEco proton exchange membrane electrolyzer for Cleanergy Solutions Namibia at a site near Walvis Bay, marking what the companies describe as Africa’s first fully integrated green hydrogen production and distribution facility.
Europe’s hydrogen pipeline is growing on paper faster than it is on the ground. While gigawatt-scale electrolyzer announcements and national hydrogen strategies continue to dominate headlines, deployment timelines are slipping, permitting queues are lengthening, and investment decisions are being deferred.
Getech has secured its first contract in stimulated geologic hydrogen, partnering with GeoKiln on a pilot project in Minnesota that targets hydrogen production directly within iron-rich subsurface formations rather than at the surface.
Fortescue Metals Group has revised the power purchase agreement for its Holmaneset green hydrogen and ammonia project in Norway, effectively postponing the plant’s operational start beyond 2029.
At H2 MEET, while electrolyzers, mobility platforms, and hydrogen infrastructure maps dominated the exhibition floor, 3M delivered a perspective that cut across the hype: hydrogen today does not face a technological barrier in production or transport. Its primary constraint is industrial uptake.
ABB and HDF Energy’s joint-development agreement (JDA) to design high-power hydrogen fuel cell units for marine applications addresses a technical gap that has constrained hydrogen’s role at sea.
Germany has taken a significant step toward establishing a continental hydrogen corridor, with gas grid operator Gascade announcing the conversion of a 400-kilometer high-pressure natural gas pipeline to transport low-carbon hydrogen from the Baltic Sea southward.
