Vema Hydrogen has drilled its first two pilot wells in Quebec, launching what it describes as the world’s first field test of Engineered Mineral Hydrogen, a method designed to produce hydrogen directly from subsurface rock formations.

Germany’s green hydrogen pipeline continues to move selectively from strategy papers to steel in the ground, with bp confirming a 100 megawatt electrolyzer project that, once commissioned in 2027, is expected to produce up to 11,000 metric tons of green hydrogen annually. The contract awarded to Bilfinger, as part of a consortium responsible for prefabrication, assembly, and installation of key plant components, provides a window into how large energy companies are now prioritizing execution capacity over headline ambition.

After more than five years of stalled progress, construction has officially begun on a large-scale green hydrogen and renewable energy project in South Taranaki, underpinned by a NZD 19.9 million government investment and a total project budget estimated at up to NZD 112.3 million.

Oxford-based SAF start-up Oxccu has begun supplying its pilot facility with green hydrogen, replacing grey hydrogen volumes previously used in its fuel synthesis process, as it seeks to validate lifecycle emissions reductions alongside process efficiency.

ACWA Power’s Innovation Days 2026 in Riyadh resulted in 27 strategic partnership agreements with international universities, technology suppliers, and research institutions, signaling a deliberate effort to systematize technology development rather than rely solely on incremental improvements within existing assets.

Chile’s Ministry of Energy has launched a public consultation on the updated National Green Hydrogen Strategy 2026–2030, signaling a recalibration of the country’s ambitions six years after the original roadmap.

The Hydrogen Technology Masterclass: Fundamentals and Policy with Dinko Đurđević will take place on Energy News, bringing expert-led insight directly…

ACWA Power’s memorandum of understanding with EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg, Rostock Port, and VNG outlines a proposed green ammonia supply corridor from Saudi Arabia to northern Germany, positioning ammonia cracking as a gateway for large-scale hydrogen imports into Europe’s core gas network.

Public support for Europe’s energy transition remains broadly intact, but consumers increasingly see governments as lagging behind stated climate ambitions.

Chile’s green hydrogen ambitions have faced a significant reality check after AES Andes, the Chile based subsidiary of US utility AES Corporation, canceled its planned US$10 billion INNA green hydrogen and green ammonia complex in the Atacama Desert.
