. The physicist and his colleagues at Fraunhofer HHI’s Fiber Optical Sensor Systems branch lab in Goslar are working on new technical techniques to detect hydrogen using glass fiber sensors

One of the causes is the cost of electrolyzers, which are devices that use electricity to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.

The appeal has been called “the hydrogen spring” since it aims to foster new hydrogen-based transportation systems that are environmentally friendly alternatives to fossil fuels.

A cooperation agreement was signed between Petronet and Teksis on the production of ‘Hydrogen Filling Stations’.  Kaynak: Hidrojen dolum istasyonu üretecekler

According to Mike Graff, an Air Liquide senior vice president, the $250 million plants will be able to create up to 30 tonnes of liquid hydrogen each day, which is enough for around 40,000 fuel-cell vehicles.

With the converter, hydrogen may be produced in a capillary fashion at the destination, lowering transportation costs and overcoming the low energy content of hydrogen, which poses a storage and transit difficulty.

In Switzerland, cleantech provider Hitachi Zosen Inova AG (HZI) and the Aarau-Lenzburg Regional Waste Disposal Association (GEKAL) have announced a joint venture project that aims to produce hydrogen at the waste-to-energy (WtE) plant in Buchs, Canton of Aargau.

Wetselaar believes that this form of energy will be price competitive by the end of this decade and that its reduced production cost in Spain will attract other enterprises on the continent and allow it to be exported to other countries.

High natural gas prices have made hydrogen more affordable, highlighting its value as a clean fuel for not just decarbonizing Europe but also ensuring energy security.

From late next year, the “New Energies Service Station” in Geelong will offer EV charging as well as public refueling of hydrogen-fueled vehicles and buses.
