The landscape of sustainable energy is set for a significant transformation as EET Hydrogen gears up for the front-end engineering design (FEED) of its planned 1GW HPP2 blue hydrogen production plant in the UK. This ambitious project is poised to mark a milestone in the realm of clean energy, with KBR taking the lead in executing the FEED.
Elcogen has signed supply and Research & Development (R&D) collaboration agreement with the esteemed French company Genvia. This partnership marks the culmination of two years of successful cooperation and signifies a strategic move towards advancing solid oxide electrolyser (SOEC) technology for the commercialization of green hydrogen.
The German wind association, BWO, is spearheading a groundbreaking initiative, calling for tenders on offshore electrolysers to propel green hydrogen production. The move comes in the wake of the 2022 revision of the German Offshore Wind Energy Act, WindSeeG, granting regulatory powers to the Climate Ministry.
The Danish government has unveiled its ambitious 2030 plan, titled “Denmark Ready for the Future,” signaling a shift in response to the evolving global competitive landscape. While the hydrogen industry applauds the commitment to strengthening the EU’s green industry, concerns linger about the immediate recognition of the challenges faced by Danish companies in the fiercely competitive international arena.
In recent years, the green hydrogen industry has witnessed a fascinating shift in focus – a transition from the idea of importing green hydrogen from regions like North Africa to nurturing local, sustainable production within Europe.
German conglomerate Siemens Energy and the French industrial gas specialist Air Liquide have jointly opened a factory in Berlin, which may be modest in size but possesses the revolutionary potential to transform the landscape of heavy industry decarbonization. The factory, inaugurated on Wednesday, is set to manufacture electrolyser modules, a critical component in the production of low carbon hydrogen.
Prime Minister António Costa’s resignation has sent shockwaves through Portugal, triggered by a series of searches at key government offices and companies.
Romania’s pursuit of eco-friendly rail transportation encountered a roadblock as the Railway Reform Authority (ARF) canceled its procurement procedure for 12 hydrogen-powered trains due to the submission of a single non-compliant bid. This setback raises questions about the future of hydrogen trains in the country and their role in sustainable transit.
In a determined move to achieve climate neutrality by 2040, the state of Baden-Württemberg in Germany is discovering that its path to sustainability depends significantly on an earlier and more substantial supply of green hydrogen. Recent findings from a survey conducted by the Ministry of the Environment suggest that the demand for hydrogen is much greater and arrives sooner than previously assumed.
A project initiated by EVE, Petronor, SENER, and Nortegas is driving the Basque Hydrogen Corridor (BH2C) forward. This endeavor aims to pioneer the use of renewable hydrogen to fuel a wide range of applications in the Basque Country, from industrial processes to public transportation.
