The U.S. Department of Energy is receiving proposals from a wide range of applicants from the private, public, and nonprofit sectors to help create “hubs” that produce clean hydrogen that “has the potential to decarbonize multiple economic sectors,” including heavy-duty transportation and steel manufacturing.
The Honeywell Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier (LOHC), a product that enables the long-distance transportation of clean hydrogen, was unveiled by Honeywell.
According to Gov. Ned Lamont, Connecticut will compete with six other northeastern states for more than $1 billion in federal money to establish a regional “centre” for clean hydrogen fuel.
This week, the Piaui state government in Brazil inked a number of agreements to create green hydrogen generation projects supported by new solar power plants.
The heads of the Advanced Institute of Technology and Innovation (IATI), Brazil’s only centre specialized in scientific research on green hydrogen, claimed that this renewable energy source will drive an “energy revolution” in the world and that the future of the transition is in Brazil.
The third edition of the Green Hydrogen Innovation Program, which serves as a national catalyst for the development of green hydrogen technology, has recently begun accepting registrations. The programme intends to promote research into and production of green hydrogen, a source of clean, renewable energy that helps cut carbon emissions.
According to the Energy Transitions Commission, primary steel projects with almost zero emissions are within reach in both Europe and North America. By 2030, the organisation says, the sector may be on a path that is compliant with the Paris Agreement.
Rio Negro will hold a worldwide conference aimed at promoting this clean energy, referred to as the “fuel of the future,” with the anticipation that a National Law would be passed that encourages the growth of green hydrogen in the nation.
Engie Brasil Energia and Invest Paraná have signed a memorandum of intent to jointly construct large-scale green hydrogen projects in the state of Paraná.
The “Bahia H2 Offshore” project, which required an investment of 7.8 million euros, has thus far received 5.7 million euros from the Perte ERHA’s incentive programme for the innovative value chain and expertise of renewable hydrogen.
