Hydrogen Production Process

Splitting water molecules takes more energy than calculations suggest, and is a key roadblock to cheap hydrogen fuel production. Now, scientists have discovered why.

In Indiana, Accelera by Cummins, and GAIL (India) recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to collaborate on green hydrogen and zero-emissions technologies in India. The collaboration will leverage Accelera's expertise in hydrogen generation technology and GAIL's established natural gas infrastructure to explore opportunities in hydrogen production, blending, transportation and storage. The partnership…

In France, Air Liquide announced two large-scale electrolyzer projects to produce renewable and low-carbon hydrogen in Europe. The first project, ELYgator, an Air Liquide 200MW electrolyzer, will supply both TotalEnergies' industrial platform and other European industrial and heavy-duty mobility needs, leveraging already secured renewable electricity from two offshore windfarms. In addition, Air Liquide and…

In California, Aslan Energy Capital has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to supply 100,000 tons per annum (TPA) of sustainable hydrogen from its green hydrogen project development in Sonora, Mexico, to California-based CalYan XGH. Located in Caborca, Sonora, Mexico, the Aslan Net-Zero Energy Mexico (ANEM) project is set to be operational by 2028. This […]

Founded by former MIT research scientist Kamal Hadidi, 6K is scaling its microwave plasma technology, called UniMelt, to transform the way critical minerals are processed, creating new, domestic supply chains in the process.

Unpacking the complexities of energy system transition

MIT engineers developed a way to make clean ammonia, without fossil-fuel-powered chemical plants, using the Earth as a geochemical reactor, producing ammonia underground.

The long-awaited guidance will provide a pathway for hydrogen produced using nuclear power to access tax credits.

The research, led by Geoffrey Ellis, a petroleum geochemist at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), has been published in the journal Science Advances. It suggests that tapping...

President Biden is rushing $7 billion out the door to build "clean energy" hydrogen hubs, but this is one green project that environmentalists don't want.

Diamonds aren't quite forever ... but they're damn close.

In Norway, Nel Hydrogen Electrolyser, a subsidiary of Nel ASA, has signed a new contract for 10 MW of alkaline electrolyser equipment with Samsung C&T Corporation Engineering & Construction Group for its first pilot for nuclear connected (pink) hydrogen production plant. The first contract with Samsung C&T signed earlier this year was for an off-grid […]

Aerleum hopes to fuel ships and airplanes with captured carbon dioxide

In Poland, Gaz-System said that The European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) granted EU financial support to the Pomeranian Green Hydrogen Cluster project under the "CEF Cross-border Renewable Energy" instrument. The Pomeranian Green Hydrogen Cluster project aims to analyze the potential for green hydrogen generation in the West Pomeranian region where Sevivon plans […]

In Germany, BASF Environmental Catalyst and Metal Solutions (ECMS) opened a new laboratory in Hannover, Germany, dedicated to advancing research on anode and cathode platinum group metal (PGM)-containing catalysts and components. ECMS said it will apply its deep expertise in catalysis and precious metals to develop next-generation catalysts for water electrolysis to meet demand in […]

Canadian startup's approach could make hydrogen an everyday fuel

In Indonesia, PT Pertamina Power Indonesia, PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy Tbk (PGE), and Genvia have signed memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to collaborate on developing green hydrogen production through the integration of advanced solid oxide electrolyzer (SOEL) technology with geothermal heat resources.  The agreement includes the assessment  of techno-economics  of using  Genvia's advanced SOEL…

In New Jersey, Avina Clean Hydrogen announced that it has received the industrial new construction permit to proceed with the construction of its integrated hydrogen production and refueling facility in Southern California.  Once operational, the facility will produce 1,400 metric tons of compressed clean hydrogen per annum, enough to fuel nearly 100 fuel cell heavy-duty […]

One of the most important steps in decarbonizing the freight sector is to replace the diesel-powered engines of heavy-duty transport vehicles, such as trucks, trains, and ships, with zero-emission alternatives. To address these concerns, HyOrc Corporation has created the HyOrc Engine, a revolutionary, zero-carbon emissions engine designed to burn hydrogen fuel of at least 97% purity, with the only byproduct being…

The MXene class of materials has many talents. An international team led by HZB chemist Michelle Browne has now demonstrated that MXenes, properly functionalized, are excellent catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction in electrolytic water splitting. They are more stable and efficient than the best metal oxide catalysts currently available. The team is now extensively characterizing these MXene catalysts for…
