Our dedicated news department gathers news and press releases from around the world to bring our community the latest developments in hydrogen technology. Here you can find news involving the people and companies involved in the production, storage and transport of hydrogen.
Topics such as electrolyzers, materials, flow control, compressors, sealings and storage tanks are covered as well as interviews with specialists, manufacturers and end users alike.
If you wish to include your news items and press releases in our publication, email newsletter or on our website please feel free to contact Matjaž Matošec.
Water electrolyzers are electrochemical devices used to split water into its constituent elements, hydrogen and oxygen, by passage of an electrical current. There are four main types of electrolyzers: alkaline and proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers are already mature, while anion exchange membrane (AEM) and solid oxide electrolyzers are still under development. These technologies differ in numerous ways, most notably in cell design and variations within components. In this section you can find news items related to various aspects of electrolyzer technologies, equipment and components. If you would like to see your news release published here and in our email newsletter, please feel free to contact Matjaž Matošec.
Danish greentech company GreenGo Energy has announced plans to develop, in cooperation with the Ringkøbing-Skjern municipality, a green energy park based on 4 GW of hybrid solar and wind energy, which is to be fed directly to the energy park, at the core of which will be a 2 GW green hydrogen production plant.
Element Resources has announced its plans to build and operate a major renewable hydrogen production facility in the City of Lancaster in California, less than 100 miles from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Element Resources will produce 20,000 tons of renewable hydrogen annually through its first phase.
On 20 January, the foundation stone of P2X Solutions’ green hydrogen and synthetic methane production plant in Harjavalta was laid. Scheduled to be completed in 2024, the facility is Finland’s first industrial-scale green hydrogen production plant that is progressing to the construction stage.
Ionomr Innovations’ Pemion® has achieved performance and durability testing results that surpass internationally recognized standards from the US Department of Energy and Hydrogen Europe, confirming the company’s hydrocarbon-based PEM and polymer is ready for widespread fuel cell applications.
Nickel-iron catalysts are promising materials for the production of green hydrogen, but they are limited by the easy dissolution of Fe inside water-splitting cells. Now, South Korean scientists have developed a novel TTP protection layer that dramatically increases the life and performance of Ni-Fe catalysts.
Abu Dhabi-based clean energy company Masdar has signed joint development agreements with the State Oil Company of the Republic of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) for onshore wind and solar photovoltaic projects, and integrated offshore wind and green hydrogen projects, with a total combined capacity of 4 GW.
Dutch energy network operator Gasunie has announced today that it is to become a partner in the H₂CAST project led by STORAG ETZEL. The H₂CAST project (H₂ Cavern Storage Transition) aims to enable large-scale hydrogen storage in the Etzel salt caverns in the German state of Lower Saxony.
Shell International Trading and Shipping Company Limited has signed a memorandum of understanding with Alfa Laval regarding the development of a new Gas Combustion Unit (GCU) for use on liquid hydrogen carriers. The project is seen as paving the way for the safe transport of hydrogen by sea.
