Hygenco Green Energies has secured $105 million in equity investment from a consortium including International Finance Corporation (IFC), Siemens Financial Services, and Fullerton Carbon Action Fund to accelerate the development of green hydrogen and green hydrogen derivative projects, including green ammonia.
Producing one kilogram of hydrogen through conventional electrolysis requires approximately 9 kilograms of water, creating additional pressure on freshwater supplies as electrolyzer deployment expands. UK-based Hychor, a spin-off from the University of Aberdeen, is developing a seawater-based hydrogen production system designed to address this limitation by eliminating the need for freshwater treatment before electrolysis.
In the United Arab Emirates, Innovation Platform Capital (iPC) and Intelligent Investment Holding (IIH) have announced a strategic joint venture to develop a large scale green hydrogen production platform aimed at supplying domestic industries while creating future export opportunities.
In Tarragona, Spain, a proposed green hydrogen facility backed by H2PRO and Sun Systems Group aims to connect renewable electricity generation with one of Europe’s largest industrial clusters, targeting the decarbonization of chemical and petrochemical operations.
The UK green hydrogen sector is moving from policy development toward commercial execution, but the transition remains dependent on securing investment, reducing technology risk, and establishing reliable demand. A new partnership between Protium Green Solutions Ltd and ITM Power highlights the industry’s current focus: combining project development expertise with electrolyzer manufacturing capabilities to advance industrial scale hydrogen production.
Chile’s ambition to become one of the world’s leading green hydrogen exporters has reached a significant regulatory milestone with the environmental approval of the $2.5 billion Volta green hydrogen and green ammonia project in Mejillones.
Georgian officials have now indicated that a parallel green hydrogen pipeline is under consideration, potentially expanding the strategic scope of the Green Energy Corridor and positioning the region as a future exporter of both renewable electricity and low-carbon fuels.
In 2025 policy frameworks across Europe, the United Kingdom, and the United States collectively converged on a shared assumption that is now becoming structurally difficult to sustain: that green hydrogen production will scale fast enough to supply synthetic fuels for aviation, maritime transport, and increasingly road vehicles.
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.
