Air Liquide is planning to build in Oberhausen, Germany, a renewable hydrogen production plant by electrolysis. With a total capacity to reach 30 megawatts (MW), a first phase of the project is expected to be operational by early 2023 with 20 MW. What is unique about this project is that the electrolyzer will be integrated […]
PNNL: Hydrogen Energy Storage At Your Service
For most people considering any large purchase, cost is a major consideration. But cost is balanced by value. What do they get out of the investment over the long haul? Is it worth it? The same holds true for major investments in our energy system. And energy storage technologies are emerging as a key component […]
The Green Hydrogen Puzzle is Starting to Fall Into Place
Replacing fossil fuels with green hydrogen in the economy is a bit like doing a jigsaw puzzle: Once a few early pieces are connected, it will be much easier to fit the others. A plan from one of the world’s top wind-turbine makers can help. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, in cooperation with its controlling shareholder, […]
The Great Unfunded Green-Hydrogen Dream of Europe’s Oil Refiners
Europe’s oil refiners have big plans to boost the use of green hydrogen to help them make fuel, an important component of the petroleum industry’s plans to cut its operational carbon emissions. But with the clock ticking in the battle against climate change, the reality of what the industry has committed to remains modest. Green […]
Oman-India JV plans $2.5bln green ammonia project in Duqm SEZ
Tatweer and ACME have identified the land parcel in the Duqm region to set up the facility MUSCAT – A partnership of the Oman Company for the Development of the Special Economic Zone at Duqm (Tatweer) and India’s biggest solar developer ACME Solar Holdings Ltd has unveiled plans to invest $2.5 billion to manufacture green […]
Taiwan’s Promise of Green Hydrogen
Although hydrogen gas emits only water, it does not naturally exist in its pure form and must be generated from another hydrogen-carrying source – usually methane (CH4) – through a process called steam-methane reforming. Cheap and well-established, this process is also highly polluting, generating 10 tons of greenhouse gases for every ton of hydrogen. Hydrogen […]
WoodMac on Green Hydrogen: It’s Going To Happen Faster Than Anyone Expects
Public and private commitments are catalyzing green hydrogen through its early development. Green hydrogen is expected to fall down the cost curve even faster than wind, solar and lithium-ion. The question is will the demand be in place? Green hydrogen is set to play a substantive role in the overall energy mix with its development […]
Ørsted Joins Efforts To Develop Offshore-Wind-to-Green-Hydrogen Tech
Consortium wins €5 million grant for Oyster project, which aims to make seaborne green hydrogen competitive with methane. Global offshore wind developer Ørsted has become the latest major player to pursue off-grid green hydrogen, a technology that could expand capacity for converting offshore wind power to zero-carbon energy. The Danish firm is collaborating with ITM […]
Coalition Aims for 25GW of Green Hydrogen by 2026
Seven firms join forces for fiftyfold scale-up of global hydrogen production capacity. The soaring hype surrounding green hydrogen reached new heights this week, as a seven-company-strong consortium unveiled plans for a fiftyfold scale-up in production capacity by 2026. ACWA Power, CWP Renewables, Envision, Iberdrola, Ørsted, Snam and Yara launched a coalition called the Green Hydrogen […]
