Iberdrola is making a bold move to become a global frontrunner in green hydrogen technology. With a portfolio of 60 green hydrogen projects spanning Spain, the United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil, and the United States, the company is poised to invest a staggering €9 billion by 2030.

A study by the Norddeutscher Reallabor (NRL) highlights the pivotal role of green hydrogen in Germany’s industrial decarbonization efforts. The study estimates the country’s future demand for green hydrogen to reach at least 211 TWh annually as industries transition to climate-friendly technologies.

France on Wednesday repeated calls to class hydrogen produced with atomic power as “green”, lining up a new clash with Germany over nuclear’s role in Europe’s energy plans.

Germany is stepping up its commitment to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) with an ambitious project that combines green hydrogen, carbon capture, and cutting-edge Fischer Tropsch (FT) technology. The collaboration between Johnson Matthey (JM) and bp has marked a significant milestone by having EDL Anlagenbau Gesellschaft select their FT CANS™ technology for the HyKero plant in Böhlen-Lippendorf, Germany.

The United Kingdom should eliminate the pursuit of hydrogen heating to shift its focus towards decarbonizing heat with electric heat pumps, according to the National Infrastructure Commission (NIC), the government’s independent advisors on infrastructure.

Nearly a year ago, the BarMar hydrogen pipeline project was announced with great expectations, aiming to connect Spain and France, potentially revolutionizing the hydrogen landscape.

The UK is gearing up for a green revolution in its heavy goods vehicle (HGV) sector with the launch of the HyHAUL project, an ambitious undertaking led by Protium, the country’s largest green hydrogen energy company. This groundbreaking initiative, backed by more than £30 million from the Department for Transport and Innovate UK, aims to accelerate the decarbonization of the UK’s HGV fleet, a sector responsible for 19% of domestic transport emissions.

Germany plans to fast-track the development of its hydrogen infrastructure as the country strives to pivot to cleaner energy.

McPhy Energy, a specialist in low-carbon hydrogen equipment, and Stargate Hydrogen, an innovator in non-precious metal electrodes for next-gen alkaline electrolyzers, have joined forces.

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.
