P2X Solutions has secured a 10-year offtake agreement for the full current production capacity of its Harjavalta methanation plant, signaling that demand for synthetic methane is beginning to move from pilot projects toward contracted fuel supply.

Germany’s hydrogen core network is designed to carry around 280 terawatt-hours annually by 2032. The government’s own National Hydrogen Strategy…

Europe’s marine battery market is projected to grow from roughly 1.8 to 2.2 billion euros in 2026 to 8 to…

Alpiq has acquired a 103.5 MW/238 MWh battery energy storage system in Bollingstedt, northern Germany, marking the Swiss utility’s entry into the country’s operational large scale battery storage market as competition for flexible power assets intensifies.

Algeria is emerging as a potential European green hydrogen supplier because of its combination of renewable energy resources, existing energy infrastructure and geographic proximity to Europe.

Czechia has commissioned its first electrolyzer designed to produce renewable hydrogen at industrial scale, but the 8,000 kilograms of annual output at Solar Global’s Napajedla facility also illustrates the gap between early projects and the country’s longer term hydrogen ambitions.

Sunfire has broken ground on a new high temperature electrolysis test facility at BASF’s Schwarzheide site in Germany, moving its solid oxide electrolysis cell technology toward longer duration industrial validation as electrolyzer developers seek higher efficiency and lower hydrogen production costs.

Hamburg is beginning construction of an infrastructure link designed to connect local hydrogen production with Germany’s emerging national hydrogen backbone and the wider European gas network, as the city moves from individual hydrogen projects toward an integrated industrial supply system.

Masdar has begun commercial operations at its 35 MW/70 MWh Royle Barn Road battery in Rochdale, northern England, adding another grid scale storage asset to the UK’s rapidly expanding battery market as the country accelerates investment in flexibility to support a more renewable power system.

The UK is putting public money behind technologies designed to store electricity for at least 100 hours, reflecting a growing recognition that a power system increasingly dependent on wind and solar cannot rely solely on short duration batteries to manage prolonged periods of low renewable generation.
