General Fusion says its Lawson Machine 26 has achieved electron temperatures of approximately 0.72 keV, or 8.4 million degrees Celsius, bringing the company closer to its first major milestone of 1 keV and offering one of the clearest demonstrations to date of its magnetized target fusion approach at commercially relevant scale.
A new Finnish consortium, MatH2, has been launched to address one of the hydrogen economy’s least resolved bottlenecks. Led by the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd and supported through a co-innovation program funded by Business Finland, the initiative brings together ten industrial and research partners spanning materials suppliers, component manufacturers, technology developers, and end users.
Lhyfe and STRABAG have signed a strategic co development agreement aimed at accelerating green hydrogen projects in Germany, with potential expansion into other European markets over time.
European Energy now says it has produced the first e methanol at its Kassø Power-to-X facility in Denmark, marking an operational milestone for a sector still under pressure to prove economic viability as much as technical feasibility.
SoftBank is moving beyond its traditional telecommunications and technology focus with plans to establish a domestic battery manufacturing business aimed at supporting AI-driven power demand.
With hydrogen vehicle production timelines tightening across Europe, supply chain readiness is emerging as a key constraint, prompting the BMW Group to secure green hydrogen volumes for its Austrian manufacturing base through a new agreement with Lhyfe.
A 60 GWh supply agreement for sodium-ion batteries signals a shift in the global energy storage market, where reliance on lithium-based chemistries is increasingly being challenged by emerging alternatives. The three-year partnership between CATL and HyperStrong marks the largest sodium-ion battery deal announced to date, highlighting growing confidence in the technology’s readiness for large-scale deployment.
Sunfire has launched HyLink® Alkaline 23, a new outdoor pressurized alkaline electrolyzer system. The 50-megawatt electrolyzer module is designed for the implementation of triple‑digit megawatt projects and reduces total installed costs (TIC) on the customer side by up to 50 percent.
Research from the University of New South Wales suggests that one of the technology’s most fundamental constraints, internal water accumulation, may be addressed through relatively simple design modifications, with reported performance gains of up to 75 percent.
