In Japan, Honda Motor Co., Tokuyama Corporation and Mitsubishi Corporation (MC) said they will conduct a joint demonstration to operate a data center using by-product hydrogen and a stationary fuel cell (FC) power station designed to reuse FC systems from fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). This demonstration project will be conducted in Shunan City, Yamaguchi […]
In Spain, Cemex Ventures said it has increased its stake in HiiROC, a startup with a novel proprietary process for low-cost, zero emission hydrogen production. Founded in 2019, HiiROC is a UK-based startup that produces cost-competitive and zero-emission hydrogen through its proprietary process of thermal plasma electrolysis. Alternatively, HiiROC’s technology stands out producing high grade […]
In Australia, ABC News reported that planning is underway for a $290.6 million hydrogen project in South Australia, which is set to create about 300 jobs during construction. The Riverbend Energy Hub would convert 200,000 tons of landfill into hydrogen annually within five years of operation. The project, which would be carried out by Adelaide-based […]
In New York, Mitsubishi Corporation and Amogy announced a strategic partnership that will focus on accelerating the adoption of Amogy’s ammonia-to-power and ammonia cracking technology in large-scale hydrogen carrier applications in East Asia, particularly Japan and South Korea. The joint study set to commence in December 2023 with SK Innovation, will first assess a large-scale […]
In California, H2U Technologies, an electrolyzer developer and De Nora, a supplier of high-performing catalyst-coated membranes, announced an R&D agreement to identify and develop low-cost, high-performance electrocatalysts for hydrogen production through water electrolysis. These catalysts will enable the market presence of affordable green hydrogen, thereby addressing a specific market need, facilitating the expansion of the […]
