The NextGen2 vehicle builds on its GenH2 predecessor with increased fuel capacity, range, payload capability, and compatibility with trailers, with Daimler claiming it performs “comparable to conventional diesel trucks”. The truck inherits the BZA150 fuel-cell from Cellcentric from the GenH2 platform, which used between 5.6 and 8.0kg of hydrogen per 100km in the older model’s first trial. It will also feature a new boil-off management system featuring an integrated cooling system to ensure stable operating conditions, along with hydrogen sensors to allow overnight stays in the cab. Achim Puchert, CEO Mercedes-Benz trucks said that the NextGenH2 Truck, represents the “next [...]

The Chilean arm of the US-based AES Corp said it would discontinue development of the Inna project, a sprawling complex combining wind and solar generation, battery storage, electrolysers, desalination infrastructure and pipelines. The project was intended to produce green hydrogen for export and domestic consumption, although its exact scale was never disclosed. In 2024, alongside submission of the project’s environmental impact assessment (EIA), AES inked an early-stage deal with South Korean EPC major Samsung E&A to evaluate the project. However, AES said it would “desist” from executing the Inna development and instead focus on expanding its renewable energy and energy [...]

The declaration will be signed by energy ministers from the UK, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Norway. The declaration emphasises building international markets, ensuring secure supply chains, and setting standards for hydrogen-based technologies. Specific areas of collaboration include the development of green shipping corridors, research and development, knowledge sharing and capacity building, and economic and financial partnership. A key element will see the construction of an offshore wind power grid in the North Sea. Nick Mabey, CEO of European climate change think tank E3G, said the announcement represents a turning point in the development of [...]

The facility will look to divert 40 tonnes of waste from landfill daily, converting it into hydrogen for uses including transport. The newly inked 25-year lease is for a 1.98-acre plot at Silverwood Business Park in Ballymena, a site with green energy access via two 2.3MW wind turbines. PHE says it will submit a planning application required to make the agreement effective “shortly”. If approved, the agreement will feature a rent-free period of 12 months, subject to five-year reviews thereafter. PHE says its thermal technology converts non-recyclable waste like plastics into syngas, which can be purified into hydrogen. The company [...]

A constructor and operator of the facility will be chosen, dependent upon a basic project plan and financial viability report submitted by interested players. Dubbed Portali-H2, the project is expected to source at least 70% of its energy from renewables, “moving towards maximum energy autonomy.” The hydrogen produced will be used in port operations, local maritime, and land transport. The port has reserved 500m² for the plant and 3,000m² of space for renewable electricity generation to power the electrolyser, the timeline of which will depend on final tender decisions. The Port Authority says the plant aims not only to reduce [...]

The station, operated by Air Liquide and TotalEnergies joint venture Teal Mobility, was supplied under a “multi-year” contract, though volumes remain undisclosed. Located in northeastern France, the Teal station has a dispensing capacity of 1 tonne per day, offering hydrogen at 350 bar and 750 bar. The company stressed the new French refuelling station “opens up links” to Germany, Luxembourg, and Belgium, countries where Teal has numerous refuelling stations, both operational and in development. Matthieu Guesné, CEO of Lhyfe, called the agreement with Teal a “strong signal, both of the growth of green hydrogen in mobility, and of the robustness [...]

The oil and gas firm confirmed all ten 10MW electrolysers from US-based Plug Power had been installed at its over 220,000 barrel per day refinery in Sines. Once online, the electrolysers will produce up to 15,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually, to replace around 20% of the facility’s grey hydrogen to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 110,000 tonnes annually. Galp’s head of industrial activities, Ronald Doesburg, said the project was a “fundamental step” towards building a “new generation of low-carbon fuels” that will decarbonise hard-to-electrify industries. Plug Power said the electrolyser system was expected to be commissioned in the [...]

Completion guarantees, tight operational deadlines, and weak demand signals drove green hydrogen projects away from signing grant agreements under the second European Hydrogen Bank (EHB) auction, according to Hydrogen Europe. The assessment comes after just six of 18 projects invited to negotiate under the €1bn ($1.17bn) second EHB round signed up to receive 10-year production subsidies – amounting to less than a third of the original budget.

Malaysia-based Hydrexia, which manufactures skid-mounted hydrogen refuelling stations for temporary or mobile applications, said the order would allow Australian consumers to choose from a wider range of vehicles and technologies. The exact number of stations ordered by TMCA has not been revealed. However, Hydrexia will provide maintenance of the systems. TMCA has also not announced where it will deploy the equipment. It comes after Hydrexia provided Toyota with mobile refuelling systems for an event in Malaysia last year. As of late 2024, Hydrexia claimed to have participated in over 105 HRSs, including the “world’s largest”, with service capacities ranging from [...]

The unnamed customers is using the generators to provide electricity for production sets and related mobile infrastructure. Charbone said the use of hydrogen was demonstrating a “concrete pathway” to reducing emissions, noise, and “fuel logistics complexity” in an industry typically reliant on conventional diesel generators. It adds to the growing number of fuel cell generator deployments in film and TV applications. Sky is trialling a self-developed fuel cell-battery system in the UK; GeoPura has powered productions for the BBC, PGA Championships and more; and France’s EoDev powered a nighttime Netflix shoot with its fuel cell generator. Dave Gagnon, CEO of [...]
