The Sheffield-based manufacturer will provide up to 200MW of electrolyser technologies for Hygen, which are focusing on decarbonising mobility, construction and hard-to-electrify industries and power. The first phase of the agreement will see 50MW of Neptune Plug and Play electrolysers deployed across several projects. The second phase will introduce 150MW of large-scale modular electrolysers. H2 View understands that Hygen’s projects will be based on the UK Government’s Hydrogen Allocation Round 2 (HAR2), or similar funding programmes. They are all subject to final investment decision (FID ..read more

The company will provide its diaphragm compressors for various industries and applications in the country, in particular hydrogen refuelling. India is planning major government investment for the hydrogen industry throughout the decade. Under the agreement, PDC has a dedicated partner to support the local Indian hydrogen market and allows it to amplify its reach in Asia, leveraging KPCL’s existing customer base. KPCL will extend its product portfolio to offer PDC diaphragm compression technology and have access to PDC’s aftermarket services to provide customers with expert support, remotely a ..read more

The Danfoss paper, Green Hydrogen: A Critical Balancing Act, identified that hydrogen is set to consume over half of today’s electricity demand by 2050, meaning hydrogen production should be recognised as a limited resource. By 2050, Danfoss has reported that hydrogen will be the largest single source of electricity demand. © Danfoss “The potential of hydrogen as a clean energy carrier is immense,” explained Mika Kulju, President of Danfoss Power Electronics and Drives. “But it must be produced efficiently to minimise costs, and we need to deploy it judiciously. “To maximise its impact, whi ..read more

The Fluxys Belgium subsidiary will act as HNO for the next 20 years and undertake the development and operation of a hydrogen pipeline network which will be part of the European Hydrogen Backbone (EHB). The network will enable low-carbon energy to be transported for both the Belgian market and to neighbouring countries. Preparatory studies have been launched by Fluxys, with both new-build pipelines being identified and the repurposing of existing pipelines where possible. Initial studies are to lay the first pipelines in the industrial clusters that have expressed the need for hydrogen. The s ..read more

Located in the Domat/Ems at the Reichenau hydropower plant, the 2.5MW facility is expected to be capable of producing up to 350 tonnes of green hydrogen per year. The jointly owned plant uses electrolysis for hydrogen production, via green electricity from the adjacent hydroelectric power plant. The hydrogen is compressed at the plant to enable convenient delivery to refuelling stations and industrial customers. AXPO CEO, Christoph Brand, explained, “There are still a few hurdles to overcome, but we’re convinced of this green, sustainable and renewable energy carrier’s potential.” The two com ..read more

The gigawatt capacity order will be used for Hy Stor’s Mississippi Clean Hydrogen Hub (MCHH) in the US, an off-grid hydrogen production and salt cavern storage hub. Pending final investment decision (FID), electrode production at Nel’s Herøya, Norway, plant will run through 2025, 2026 and the start of 2027. The capacity reservation won’t be considered as order intake or backlog until a firm purchase has been made. Nel’s President and CEO, Håkon Volldal, claimed MCHH can enable “significant carbon emission reductions and leave in its wake a blueprint for successful, large-scale green hydrogen ..read more

These technologies include waste-to-hydrogen conversion, carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS), heat pumps and sustainable alternative fuel technologies. One of the cornerstones of the Green Deal Industrial Plan (GDIP), NZIA has set a target for Europe to produce 40% of its annual deployment needs in Net Zero technologies by 2030, based on National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs) and to capture 15% of the global market value of the technologies. The new legislation is expected to harmonise permitting processes in EU member states and public procurement with the aim of establishing r ..read more

The Kite Hydroliner buses are expected to serve the city of Cottbus, Brandenburg’s second-largest city, signifying the fleet operators’ first venture into using hydrogen-powered buses. Following testing in Belfast, Northern Ireland, the vehicles are compliant with the VDV (Association of German Transport Companies) regulations and meet the requirements of the European General Safety Regulation (GSR2). The buses are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2024. Wrightbus has previously secured contracts in Germany with West Verkehr, Regionalverkehr Köln (RVK) and Saarbahn GmbH. Up to 60 buses ..read more

The Biden-Harris Administration has today (April 25) finalised its suite of standards to reduce pollution from fossil fuel-fired power plants, identifying CCS as “the best system of emission reduction.” In May 2023, President Biden’s agenda added clean hydrogen and CCS technologies as potential solutions to decarbonise the power industry, however CCS will now be the focus due to it being “an available and cost-reasonable emission control technology that can be applied directly to power plants.” The EPA initially planned to use low-carbon hydrogen for gas plants due to the fuel being “more cos ..read more

The network will stretch from Edmonton to Calgary, Alberta, designed to serve heavy-duty vehicles, including commercial and municipal trucks and buses, along with light-duty hydrogen fuel cell cars. Situated along the Queen Elizabeth II Highway, the network is expected to support western Canada in reaching its goal of 5,000 hydrogen or dual-fuel vehicles deployed on the road in five years. Air Products’ permanent hydrogen refuelling station in Edmonton is currently under construction and scheduled to be completed in 2025, supported with CAD $1m from Natural Resources Canada’s Zero Emission Ve ..read more
