Technip Energies has been awarded Engineering, Procurement Services and Construction Management (EPsCm) contracts by Galp for an advanced biofuels unit and a green hydrogen unit for its Sines refinery in Portugal. Both projects are part of Galp’s program to reduce the carbon footprint of the refinery and its products.

Fraunhofer UMSICHT researchers are developing a new process called methanol-assisted water electrolysis (MAWE) that could revolutionize the way hydrogen is produced.

Scientists at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) have synthesized the first-ever metal-organic frameworks (MOF) membrane with a thickness of just one unit cell. The ultrathin film yields record-high separation performance of hydrogen.

Electriq Global, a pioneer and industry leader in Solid Hydrogen Carriers, has been awarded a €1.1M grant from the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO).

EHM, in collaboration with Schiever, an family large distribution company, is set to convert a 44-tonne DAF heavy goods vehicle from diesel to a hydrogen combustion engine. This ambitious project not only signifies a major step forward in eco-friendly logistics but also demonstrates the increasing viability of hydrogen as an alternative fuel source.

The Brainport region in the Netherlands is on the cusp of a major sustainable transformation, thanks to a proposed hydrogen pipeline that would connect the region to Germany and the North Sea.

The hydrogen economy is surging forward as a beacon of hope in the battle against the global climate crisis. However, as this vital industry expands at a rapid pace, the need to safeguard its critical infrastructure becomes increasingly apparent. In a digital age where connectivity is king, cybersecurity is paramount.

Norway has recently made significant breakthroughs in hydrogen research, but current government policy means that these findings will most likely only benefit its competitors. The EU and USA are currently investing heavily in hydrogen, while Norway has yet to develop a clear plan for making hydrogen available for use domestically.

Brétéché, a prominent fuel distributor operating in six French departments, has unveiled Vendée’s first privately-owned hydrogen station. This refuelling station, located in Maché (Vendée), marks a significant leap forward in the adoption of green hydrogen as a clean energy source for commercial vehicles.

Angel Trains, the UK’s largest rolling stock company, has joined forces with the University of St Andrews in support of a pioneering hydrogen train initiative. This partnership signals a promising future for hydrogen-powered transportation and green energy research.
