Hamburg, a city steeped in industrial history, is poised to embark on a groundbreaking journey into the future of energy production. The disused Moorburg coal-fired power plant, which once symbolized the city’s reliance on fossil fuels, is set to be reborn as a hub for green hydrogen production. In a significant development, the project has found a new partner to replace two industrial giants who departed from the consortium.

The Salzgitter Group, a key player in the steel industry, has partnered with technology group ANDRITZ to make a significant leap towards virtually CO₂-free steel production. ANDRITZ will construct a 100 MW green hydrogen plant as part of the SALCOS® program, becoming one of Europe’s largest hydrogen facilities.

ABB has been selected to provide the power distribution system for two hydrogen-fueled container ships operated by the Samskip Group. These vessels, constructed by India’s Cochin Shipyard Ltd, signify a significant stride towards greener and more sustainable shipping practices.

In the vast expanse of China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region, an extraordinary transformation is underway. Rows of photovoltaic power panels, glistening in the sunlight, stretch as far as the eye can see across once-desertified land. What may seem like just another solar energy station is, in fact, a crucial part of the Ningdong Energy Chemical Industry Base’s grand vision.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has taken a significant step towards a sustainable, clean energy future with the announcement of $47.7 million in funding for 16 cutting-edge research, development, and demonstration (RD&D) projects across 13 states.

Jericho Energy Ventures joins forces with its European partner, Exogen Hydrogen Solutions, to bring about a transformative change in industrial processes. This collaboration aims to provide comprehensive decarbonization solutions, leveraging green hydrogen technology to drive innovation in industrial steam production, district heating, and mobility applications.

ExxonMobil, one of the world’s largest energy conglomerates, is stirring up a contentious debate as it seeks substantial tax credits for hydrogen derived from natural gas, commonly known as “blue hydrogen.”

European Union and the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, the Hypster project is poised to transform the landscape of renewable hydrogen storage.

German states of Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland have joined forces to establish and expand a cross-border hydrogen economy. Collaborating with neighboring Benelux countries and France, this decision, made in Brussels, outlines a bold vision for a greener and economically vibrant region.

Bulgaria is stepping into the future of sustainable energy with a groundbreaking memorandum of understanding. “Bulgartransgaz” EAD, in collaboration with “Glavbolgarstroy Holding” AD, American companies Solar Turbines Inc. and Honeywell, and Italy’s Pietro Fiorentini, has embarked on an ambitious pilot project for the production and utilization of green hydrogen within the Chiren underground gas storage facility.
