In 2023, renewable energy accounted for 22.1% of the EU’s final energy consumption, up from just 9.6% in 2004. As demand for alternative energy sources surges alongside efforts to achieve carbon neutrality, green hydrogen production has emerged at the forefront.

The clean hydrogen revolution is gaining momentum, highlighted by a paradigm where waste — particularly waste heat — serves as an untapped frontier.

Germany’s ambitious shift towards a hydrogen-based energy system represents a significant shift in energy policy. Splendidly exemplified by the aim to transition existing natural gas and oil storage facilities to accommodate hydrogen storage—this could potentially fulfill 20 to 50 percent of Germany’s hydrogen storage requirements by the 2030s.

Electricity accounts for just 20% of global energy consumption, yet dominates decarbonization debates. The remaining 80%—industrial heat, heavy transport, and…

The Welsh government’s removal of a holding direction on the Bridgend hydrogen energy project marks a pivotal moment in the region’s energy transition. The approval, granted to Marubeni Europower Ltd, comes despite ongoing community opposition and logistical challenges, drawing attention to the broader implications of hydrogen energy integration within local contexts.

In a decisive move to bolster France’s domestic hydrogen production capacity, Doubs-based startup Gen-Hy has secured €100 million (USD $107 million) in state support, a key component of the country’s industrial decarbonisation and energy sovereignty strategy.

Hanwha has decided to incorporate KBR’s ammonia decomposition technology into its domestic hydrogen projects.
