The European Investment Bank and the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance are inviting hydrogen promoters chosen for public funding to enter into financing and advisory discussions with the Bank on an expedited basis in light of REPowerEU’s goals to produce 10 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen in Europe by 2030.
More than 15.5 gigawatts of renewable hydrogen projects are now in development in Spain, more than doubling the 4 GW objective set in the government-approved “roadmap” for this energy source for 2030.
The green hydrogen project of the company EDP for Los Barrios (Cádiz) has been included in the first round of aid for the development of green hydrogen in Spain and will receive EUR 3.6 million.
In a letter to parliament, Dutch Energy Minister Rob Jetten announced that the government will appoint Gasunie, a gas grid operator, to oversee efforts to establish a hydrogen network in the North Sea.
By rewriting its National Hydrogen Strategy before schedule, the German Economy Ministry (BMWK) hopes to consolidate goals to double the nation’s electrolysis capacity by 2030, which is required to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen.
Manufacturing, vehicle integration, safety, and road certification will all fall under ABT’s purview. It is a modular system that can be made to fit the vehicle’s size by placing two to seven 700-bar hydrogen tanks at the bottom of the model. This prevents interior space from being lost.
In order to create hydrogen-powered ships and port applications for the European market, renewable energy startup e1 Marine has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with naval design and engineering experts NAVTEK.
The production will take place at BMW’s “pilot factory” at its Munich Research and Innovation Centre, with the vehicle expected to hit the roads in the spring of 2023. The plant employs about 900 employees who work in departments like the body shop, assembly, and concept car manufacturing.
With the signing of a Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) to encourage innovation and create a global hydrogen market, the EU and Japan have strengthened their cooperation on hydrogen.
