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.

Germany’s ABO Energy GmbH & Co KGaA has officially brought its first green hydrogen facility online, marking a pivotal step in the company’s diversification beyond wind power.

National Gas and Gas Networks Ireland (GNI) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore the development of a cross-border pipeline between the United Kingdom and Ireland capable of transporting 100% hydrogen—marking a pivotal step toward a regional hydrogen economy.

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.

Air Products is abandoning plans for a major green hydrogen import and production terminal at the Port of Immingham in the UK.

Spain has secured €32.5 million in EU funding for early-stage engineering and design work on its national hydrogen backbone, with Enagás announcing the grant agreement at its second Hydrogen Technical Day in Madrid.

Tree Energy Solutions (TES) and engineering consultancy Ramboll have concluded a joint engineering study for a CO₂ export terminal at TES’s Wilhelmshaven Green Energy Hub, aiming to position the North Sea port as a key node in Europe’s carbon logistics.
