In Russia, an international group of scientists from Russia, as well as from Arab and African countries, has proposed a new technology that allows to generate electric power and also to ensure hydrogen storage in the process of regasification of liquefied natural gas (LNG). The results have been published in the International Journal of Hydrogen […]
In India, Indian Oil Corporation Limited under the aegis of Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, in collaboration with the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) and Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs has launched hydrogen-powered shuttle bus services in Delhi’s Central Vista area. The hydrogen-powered buses were formally flagged off today by Mr. Arvind Kumar, […]
In Finland, a consortium led by the University of Vaasa, Finland, has been awarded significant Horizon Europe funding for a major research and innovation project that moves long‑distance shipping closer to a zero‑carbon future. The H4PERION – Hydrogen FOR Performance Enhancement and Reliable Ice OperatioN – project will, for the first time, demonstrate in practice […]
In Brazil, hydrogen production from ethanol, especially when derived from biomass, is a particularly promising pathway in the Brazilian context. Brazil has a well-established infrastructure for producing, distributing, and using this biofuel, opening the door to technological solutions that add value to ethanol and expand its role in the energy transition. A study led by […]
In Germany, green hydrogen is one of the most important pillars of the energy transition. It is produced from sunlight using photocatalytic processes. There are now a variety of technologies for converting and storing solar energy into chemical energy. But now, for the first time, a material has been successfully developed that can store the […]
In Finland, Fortum has succeeded in producing first hydrogen at Kalla Test Center in Loviisa, Finland, during the first phases of the commissioning of the electrolyzer equipment. The test center is expected to be fully operational during spring 2026. Fortum is committed to accelerating electrification across the Nordics, and the Kalla Test Center will contribute […]
In the Netherlands, the Port of Rotterdam wants to accelerate the import of hydrogen and hydrogen carriers such as ammonia, methanol, and LOHCs (Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carriers) and is therefore launching a market consultation. Although various companies are making plans, investment decisions largely remain pending. This is slowing down the energy transition. After all, hydrogen […]
In the UK, Aston University has opened the Wolfson Centre for Low Carbon Hydrogen, a new state-of-the-art facility dedicated to exploring hydrogen production from biomass conversion. The centre houses a pilot plant consisting of three core facilities – a high-pressure gasifier that converts biomass into a hydrogen-containing gas mixture, a palladium membrane reactor for separating […]
In South Korea, among hydrogen production methods, alkaline water electrolysis is efficient and environmentally friendly; however, its dependence on freshwater limits large-scale implementation. Seawater electrolysis offers a practical alternative by tapping Earth’s abundant water resources, but high chloride concentrations accelerate catalyst corrosion and reduce efficiency, posing significant challenges for sustainable hydrogen generation. To address this, […]
In the UK, Oils & Fats International reported that a research team at Aston University, UK,have developed a process to produce renewable hydrogen and propane from glycerol. Glycerol or glycerine is produced mainly from fats and oils via hydrolysis in traditional soap-making, or transesterification for biodiesel production, and is often used in health and beauty […]
