In Minnesota, the University of Minnesota said that Cargill has awarded $2.5 million to the Forever Green Initiative at the University of Minnesota to support research into two novel oilseed crops—winter camelina and domesticated winter pennycress—that can produce seed-based oil for low-carbon transportation fuels. “Winter camelina and pennycress could be truly transformative for farmers, the […]
In Germany, Reuters reported that Germany’s government has agreed plans to subsidize gas power plants that can switch to hydrogen. The economy ministry said I will provide $17 billion in subsidies as part of efforts to supplement intermittent renewable energy and speed up the transition to low carbon generation, according to the report. The tender […]
In Germany, Daimler Truck and Linde Engineering presented sLH2, a jointly developed refueling technology for subcooled liquid hydrogen. Compared to gaseous hydrogen, subcooled liquid hydrogen (sLH2) allows for higher storage density, greater range, faster refueling, lower costs and superior energy efficiency, the companies said. Daimler Truck and Linde Engineering aim to establish sLH2 as a […]
In the UK, EET Hydrogen announced it has a statement of principles with the UK Government’s Department for Energy Security and Net Zero for its flagship HPP1 low-carbon hydrogen plant. The construction of the new facility is expected to begin later this year, Essar said. EET Hydrogen and the UK Government will now enter final […]
In Arizona, Nikola Corporation announced the opening of its first HYLA hydrogen refueling station in Southern California. Featuring an advanced modular fueler, the station at 2445 East Guasti Road in Ontario, California, will be capable of fueling up to 40 Nikola hydrogen fuel cell electric Class 8 trucks daily. This station is part of a […]
In New York, Plug Power said it has re-started operation of its hydrogen plant in Charleston, Tennessee, adding about ten tons per day (TPD) of liquid hydrogen supply back onto the U.S. market. Plug also implemented design improvements to enhance overall plant efficiency. Plug’s cryogenic trailer fleet will deliver liquid hydrogen from the Tennessee plant […]
In Texas, HNO International said that, together with Element One Energy and Pneumatic and Hydraulic Company (PHC), is set to develop what it claims to be the world’s first 500 kg per day green hydrogen production facility in Houston, Texas.
