Rising peak loads from fast charging and electrification are forcing grid operators and site owners across Northern Europe to look for alternatives to costly grid reinforcements, and Nordic Booster is betting that second-life truck batteries can close part of that gap.
KPI Green Energy has secured three contracts from NTPC worth a combined Rs. 128.49 crore for a plasma gasification–based green hydrogen project, signaling growing institutional interest in thermochemical pathways that link decarbonization with waste management.
Rockcheck New Energy Group has placed 65 hydrogen powered heavy duty trucks into service across logistics and port operations in the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region, a scale that begins to test whether hydrogen mobility can function reliably outside subsidized pilots.
As the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism enters its fully operational phase on January 1, the policy is shifting from a theoretical deterrent to a real cost line item for exporters of emissions-intensive goods.
Brazil’s federal government has committed more than BRL 59 million to a green hydrogen and ammonia plant in ParaÃba, signaling a more targeted phase of the country’s energy transition strategy that links decarbonization with industrial competitiveness and fertilizer security.
South Korea’s battery and automotive sectors are moving toward tighter vertical integration as Samsung SDI and KG Mobility formalize a new memorandum of understanding to co-develop advanced battery pack technologies for electric vehicles, centered on Samsung SDI’s 46-series cylindrical cells.
China’s energy storage market is increasingly shifting from pilot-scale deployments to standardized, high-volume procurement, and CATL’s newly announced three-year memorandum of understanding with Sieyuan reflects that transition.
German developer Möhring Energie has signed a framework agreement with the Mauritanian government that grants access to tax incentives under the country’s Hydrogen Code, a regulatory package enacted in September 2024 to accelerate large scale Power to X investment.
In a high-tech factory near Hamburg, robotic arms efficiently assemble proton exchange membrane electrolysers designed to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. These machines, produced by Quest One, represent a level of industrial automation far ahead of the company’s current demand, highlighting a persistent imbalance in the green hydrogen market.
NTPC has unveiled plans for a green hydrogen facility at its NETRA campus in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, designed to produce one tonne of hydrogen per day.
