Europe’s ambitions to decarbonize its steel sector using hydrogen-based direct reduced iron (DRI) have suffered a significant blow, as ArcelorMittal confirmed it is scrapping its €1.8 billion DRI and hydrogen plant in Dunkirk, France.
In 2024, 91% of new renewable energy projects worldwide delivered power at a lower cost than any new fossil fuel alternative, according to the latest data from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).
Europe’s ambition to become a global hub for energy storage system (ESS) manufacturing is facing a sobering reality check. As the Clean Energy Associates’ (CEA) Q2 2025 ESS Supply, Technology, and Policy Report outlines, while new policy frameworks like the EU’s Clean Industrial Deal State Aid Framework (CIDSAF) are designed to accelerate domestic energy storage production, a wave of cancelled or delayed projects suggests that economic headwinds and global supply pressures are undermining Europe’s manufacturing vision.
Scotland’s electricity grid, increasingly saturated with renewable energy, is under mounting pressure from intermittency and congestion. In response, battery energy…
French firm Lhyfe has raised €2.5 million through a public crowdfunding campaign—surpassing sector norms and introducing a novel funding approach to Europe’s decarbonization landscape.
Battolyser Systems and VDL Hydrogen Systems have joined forces to develop and commercialize what they claim will be the first fully flexible industrial electrolyzer.
Italian gas technology firm ErreDue has finalized a €3.2 million contract with Dutch company Groengas Asset BV for the supply of three hydrogen production plants totaling 2.5 MW.
For decades, hydrogen has been pitched as a clean fuel with vast potential. Its only byproduct when burned or used in fuel cells is water—offering a tantalizing route to deep decarbonization.
With €303.75 million in federal funding secured for the first 400MW phase of Moeve’s planned 2GW Andalusian Hydrogen Valley, Spain’s southernmost autonomous community is moving to head off a familiar problem: the shortage of skilled labour to support the deployment of large-scale hydrogen infrastructure.
