Fraunhofer Institute is shedding light on the potential acoustic transformation brought about by hydrogen-powered heavy goods vehicles. While the comprehensive results are anticipated in spring 2024, early findings already indicate that 18-tonne trucks equipped with the Keyou hydrogen engine exhibit noise levels only half as loud as their diesel counterparts during low-speed operations and maneuvers.
Scientists at the Institute of Oil and Gas of the Siberian Federal University (SFU) in Krasnoyarsk have engineered a hydrogen-powered engine tailored for the extreme conditions of the Arctic. This innovation, reported by Vladimir Sedov, the General Director of Russian Hydrogen, showcases the potential of hydrogen as a transformative energy source in challenging environments.
In a bid to transition to cleaner energy sources, the exploration of hydrogen blending in existing natural gas pipelines has gained momentum. However, recent research from the Argonne National Laboratory reveals a critical hurdle — the increased risk of pipeline leakage associated with hydrogen blending, potentially limiting its viability in current infrastructure.
Green hydrogen stands as a linchpin in the energy transition, yet its precarious transport poses a quandary. Could ammonia be the solution, or does it carry a hidden environmental toll?
Initially anticipated to cost below €3 per kilogram by 2030, recent economic shifts and technical complexities are shattering these expectations.
Scientists from Yonsei University in South Korea have pioneered a revolutionary method for electricity production by merging green algae with carbon nanofibers (CNFs). The innovative cellular PV power station aims to propel hydrogen production, opening new avenues for sustainable energy solutions.
Prime Minister António Costa’s resignation has sent shockwaves through Portugal, triggered by a series of searches at key government offices and companies.
Romania’s pursuit of eco-friendly rail transportation encountered a roadblock as the Railway Reform Authority (ARF) canceled its procurement procedure for 12 hydrogen-powered trains due to the submission of a single non-compliant bid. This setback raises questions about the future of hydrogen trains in the country and their role in sustainable transit.
Researchers from Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) have unveiled a promising pathway for advancing green hydrogen production, a critical component of the clean energy revolution.
