Atomic Reorganization Breakthrough Could Slash Costs of Green Hydrogen Catalysts

As global industries push to decarbonize, the high cost and limited durability of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts remain persistent obstacles in scaling green hydrogen production. But new research from Sweden’s Umeå University suggests that a subtle atomic-level tweak may offer a path to lower-cost, high-performance electrolysers that can endure industrial conditions—without reliance on expensive precious metals.

UK-Backed Flight Tests Led by ZeroAvia Aim to Fast-Track Liquid Hydrogen in Commercial Aviation

With aviation under mounting pressure to decarbonize, the UK’s £10.8 million LH-SIFT project may provide a critical testbed for hydrogen’s long-term role in zero-emission flight. Led by ZeroAvia, the initiative aims to accelerate the development and integration of a novel liquid hydrogen management system into a Dornier 228 aircraft—marking what could become the first commercial airframe to fly using cryogenic hydrogen fuel.
