International Energy Agency (IEA) unveils a comprehensive dataset showcasing the trajectory of government research and development (R&D) budgets in its member countries. This intricate data not only reflects the ebb and flow of energy R&D but also underlines the evolving priorities and technologies that have shaped the energy landscape.
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.
In a pivotal moment for the clean energy landscape, the Green Hydrogen Catapult (GHC) has penned a letter expressing strong support for the climate-aligned implementation of the 45V clean hydrogen production tax credit (PTC). Addressed to key figures in the US government, the letter underscores the pivotal role the US plays in shaping international clean hydrogen standards.
The Danish government has unveiled its ambitious 2030 plan, titled “Denmark Ready for the Future,” signaling a shift in response to the evolving global competitive landscape. While the hydrogen industry applauds the commitment to strengthening the EU’s green industry, concerns linger about the immediate recognition of the challenges faced by Danish companies in the fiercely competitive international arena.
The Sultanate of Oman, known for its commitment to sustainable practices, is making significant strides towards clean energy, focusing on wind and solar power to generate electricity. In an ambitious move, Oman is investing over $30 billion in accelerating hydrogen production, a key player in the global shift towards renewable energy sources.
In recent years, the green hydrogen industry has witnessed a fascinating shift in focus – a transition from the idea of importing green hydrogen from regions like North Africa to nurturing local, sustainable production within Europe.
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.
As the world eagerly embraces the potential of hydrogen as a clean energy source, the efficient transport of this versatile gas becomes a critical consideration. A recent study published by the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC) dives into the energy requirements for transporting hydrogen through various methods and uncovers some compelling insights.
In a determined move to achieve climate neutrality by 2040, the state of Baden-Württemberg in Germany is discovering that its path to sustainability depends significantly on an earlier and more substantial supply of green hydrogen. Recent findings from a survey conducted by the Ministry of the Environment suggest that the demand for hydrogen is much greater and arrives sooner than previously assumed.
