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.
Ballard Power Systems announced that it has received multiple purchase orders for a total of 62 hydrogen fuel cell engines from its long-standing customer, Solaris Bus & Coach.
A consortium of French hydrogen energy companies is embarking on a groundbreaking project to test a novel hydrogen power system aboard the Fortuna Crane, an older supply vessel. This project, known as “HydroSil,” aims to pioneer the use of a liquid, silicone-based hydrogen carrier, which has the potential to reshape the way ships store and utilize hydrogen fuel.
Air Products plans to construct a cutting-edge carbon capture and carbon dioxide (CO2) treatment facility at its existing hydrogen production plant in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
ULC-Energy, Topsoe, and Rolls-Royce SMR have joined forces to explore the possibilities of producing hydrogen using Topsoe’s Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC) technology, powered by both electricity and heat generated from a Rolls-Royce SMR nuclear power plant.
RAG Austria AG (RAG) and INNIO Group (INNIO) have joined forces to deploy innovative hydrogen engine technology in Gampern, Upper Austria. This groundbreaking project aims to power a hydrogen cogeneration plant that will play a pivotal role in the energy transition, ensuring a stable supply of green energy year-round.
EnBW, one of Germany’s major energy companies, is partnering with GE Vernova’s Gas Power business to construct state-of-the-art combined heat and power (CHP) plants in Heilbronn and Altbach/Deizisau, near Stuttgart.
In a concerted effort to drive the transition to renewable hydrogen in Europe, leading energy organizations, including the Renewable Hydrogen Coalition, Wind Europe, SolarPower Europe, CAN Europe, and E3G, have penned a joint letter.
