Worley, a global professional services company, has been selected alongside its consulting business, Advisian, to conduct a comprehensive assessment of Xcel Energy’s natural gas system in the US.

With the rise of electric vehicles (EVs), it seems like gasoline cars are on the brink of extinction. However, there’s another player in the race towards cleaner transportation that’s been quietly evolving for decades: hydrogen-powered vehicles.

Physicists at the University of Illinois at Urbana, led by Yubo Yang, have discovered a new structure of hydrogen that has not been observed before.

A team of researchers from Beijing University of Technology has published a paper in the journal Fuel that evaluates the effectiveness of four load control strategies for an ammonia-hydrogen dual fuel Miller cycle spark ignition engine in a hybrid system.

Hydrogen has been touted as the fuel of the future because it is clean and efficient, with no carbon dioxide or air pollutants emitted during burning, and the only waste produced is water.

Fraunhofer IFAM, Sunfire, and Canadian materials partner Ionomr Innovations have launched the Integrate research project to apply anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolysis to an industrial scale.

Engineers at École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) have built and tested a solar reactor that can generate hydrogen gas from sunlight and water with high efficiency. The system also captures the “waste” products of oxygen and heat, putting them to use as well.

The new patent proposes a simple and safe structure for the transport and storage of hydrogen and its mixtures, especially from renewable energy sources, which can be used by various producers, end users/consumers.

Fraunhofer IWU and industry are developing a reference plant to mass produce fuel cells and electrolysers.

With the introduction of large-scale initiatives, money, and official support globally, blue hydrogen production is gaining traction.
