French Transmission System Operator (TSO) GRTgaz and the French airport authority Groupe ADP have joined hands to explore the possibility of transporting hydrogen via pipelines to Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly airports. This groundbreaking endeavor seeks to revolutionize the way airports handle their energy needs and reduce carbon emissions.
The quest for sustainable and environmentally friendly industrial practices has led to innovative collaborations, and one such project is spearheaded by the Bay Hydrogen Hub consortium in the UK. Comprising EDF Energy, Heidelberg UK, the National Nuclear Laboratory, and Vulcan Burners, the consortium aims to transform the asphalt production industry through the power of hydrogen. At the heart of this transformation is FuelCell Energy, Inc., which has been contracted for its hydrogen production technology.
A significant milestone in Germany’s ambitious hydrogen strategy has just been achieved as a natural gas pipeline, designed for conversion to hydrogen, becomes operational. Open Grid Europe GmbH (OGE), the network operator, made the groundbreaking announcement, signaling the beginning of a nationwide hydrogen pipeline network.
Airbus, a leading European aircraft manufacturer, is setting its sights on a groundbreaking development in the aviation industry. The company is eyeing the possibility of commissioning a 150-seat hydrogen plane, with the target year for potential launch set for 2035.
Lhyfe and Thevenin & Ducrot (AVIA) have emerged as the winners of a call for proposals initiated by the town of Bussy-Saint-Georges in partnership with various public entities. This collaborative venture aims to establish a green hydrogen fuel chain in the Seine-et-Marne region, marking a promising shift towards sustainable mobility and job creation.
Siemens Energy, as part of the HYFLEXPOWER consortium, has achieved a world-first by successfully operating an industrial gas turbine with 100% renewable hydrogen. This milestone, accomplished at the Smurfit Kappa site in Saillat-sur-Vienne, France, brings to light a promising outlook for carbon-neutral power generation and the ambitious goal of decarbonizing energy-intensive industries.
In the heart of the Netherlands, a groundbreaking collaborative effort is underway to harness the power of green hydrogen in the nation’s mission to combat climate change. The journey towards a sustainable, green future has found a reliable ally in “HyTROS,” short for “Hydrogen Transport, Offshore, and Storage.” This ambitious initiative, part of the Nationaal Groeifonds (National Growth Fund), signifies the Netherlands’ determined leap from a fossil-based society to an eco-friendly era.
The Netherlands is making bold strides towards a more sustainable future by embracing green hydrogen as a key element of its decarbonization strategy. However, the road to achieving this vision is encountering a significant obstacle – the rapidly increasing costs associated with using the electricity grid. These rising expenses have the potential to undermine ambitious plans for large-scale green hydrogen production, a critical component in the nation’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions.
For years, the world’s automotive landscape has been dominated by the relentless march of electric vehicles (EVs). Electric motors are widely hailed as the future of mobility, promising cleaner, more sustainable transportation. Yet, beneath the surface, other alternative fuel technologies continue to quietly advance, including hydrogen. And now, a company based in Graz, Austria, has unveiled an impressive hydrogen-powered engine that’s challenging the traditional gasoline paradigm.
