In Germany, thyssenkrupp nucera said it has been commissioned to carry out a Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) study for a large-scale hydrogen project in Europe. The planned water electrolysis plant will have a capacity of approximately 600 megawatts. The customer will use the produced hydrogen in hard-to-abate industries, thereby avoiding CO2 emissions. “Large-scale projects like […]
In Germany, Messer said that REVG Rhein-Erft-Verkehrsgesellschaft presented new hydrogen-powered fuel cell hybrid buses in Kerpen, North Rhine-Westphalia. The refueling technology and the hydrogen required are supplied by industrial gas specialist Messer. A total of 26 innovative buses will replace their predecessors with conventional diesel engines by the end of June 2025, enabling the Rhein-Erft […]
In the UK, Insider Media reported that Hydrogen Transition Energy (HTE) is seeking planning permission to build the UK’s first waste-to-hydrogen plant near Ramsgate, Kent. If approved by Kent County Council, the plant is expected to create at least 100 full-time jobs by the end of 2027, according to the report. The proposed 10-acre site […]
In Rhode Island, pv magazine reported that Element Resources is investing $1.85 billion in what is planned to be North America’s largest hydrogen production facility. Construction on the Lancaster Clean Energy Center (LCEC), north of Los Angeles, is scheduled to begin later this year, according to the report. Steve Meheen, CEO of Element Resources, told […]
In Germany, Andritz has opened its new electrolyzer gigafactory in Erfurt, Germany. The new facility has an initial annual production capacity of approximately one gigawatt which corresponds to approximately 160 to 200 electrolyzers per year. At the site, key components for green hydrogen production have already been produced since March of this year, including electrolyzer […]
In the Netherlands, Offshore Energy reported that Air Products confirmed that the NEOM Green Hydrogen Project in Saudi Arabia has reached an 80% construction completion across all sites. The 80% completion was achieved across the green hydrogen facility, wind garden, solar farm and transmission grid, with milestone equipment being received and installed, including wind turbines, […]
In the UK, Fuel Cells Works reported that the Tecnalia research and development center has developed a novel electrolyzer capable of testing different hydrogen production technologies. This experimental bench allows companies to test the different components of an electrolyzer, primarily its core or stack . It operates at a power of approximately 50 kW and […]
In India, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced that it expects SAF production to reach 2 million tons or 0.7% of airlines’ total fuel consumption in 2025. “While it is encouraging that SAF production is expected to double to 2 million tons in 2025, that is just 0.7% of aviation’s total fuel needs. And […]
In the UK, Fuel Cells Works reported that Honeywell and NTPC Green Energy have entered into a partnership to explore the production of sustainable aviation fuel. The initiative will leverage Honeywell’s eFining technology to convert CO2 emissions from NTPC’s thermal power plants, combined with green hydrogen, into SAF. “SAF production forms the sizeable part of […]
In Indonesia, Daily Excelsior reported that Indonesia’s state-owned oil company PT Pertamina is expanding its project to convert used cooking oil into sustainable aviation fuel. According to Pertamina’s subsidiary, PT Kilang Pertamina Internasional (KPI), the initiative, called the Used Cooking Oil to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (USAF) project, has been underway at the Cilacap refinery, Indonesia’s […]
