Under a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the two companies aim to co-develop robust configurations capable of delivering reliable performance under demanding conditions. “HydePoint brings a highly innovative approach to marine-based hydrogen systems,” Todd Cartwright, Chief Commercial Officer at Nel said. “We see strong alignment between our PEM technology and HydePoint’s ambition to deliver resilient, modular solutions for the global clean energy transition.” Last year, HydePoint announced it would collaborate with Norwegian Hydrogen to deliver 10-40MW dockside and nearshore hydrogen projects in Europe. However, it hasn’t been confirmed whether the agreement with Nel would build upon this collaboration. Offshore hydrogen production [...]

Whilst only a preliminary plan, the development will take place in 2-3 phases, with the first planned to be operational around 2034-2036. Additionally, ABO will explore the possibility of producing methanol and sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF) in Oulu – however, this will depend on the availability of biogenic carbon dioxide. The company would offer the waste heat generated for use as district heating in the region. ABO Energy Suomi Oy, owned by ABO Energy KGaA, will implement the plant in the industrial area of Pyyryväinen. As the land reservation is only a preliminary decision, a final investment decision (FID) will [...]

Undertaken in West Sacramento, California, last month, the testing was backed by a $4m grant from the California Energy Commission (CEC) which funded the design, integration and demonstration. The ‘switcher’ will be powered by hydrogen fuel cells and batteries for use in rail yards to move freight cars. Sera has stated the demonstration validates the locomotive’s use for short lines – key parts of the freight network used for local deliveries. By the end of 2027, Sera will build three more hydrogen locomotives using nearly $20m in new funding. “Sierra’s successful test proves that short lines can retire pre-tier 0 [...]

US-based CF will own 40%, Jera 35%, and Mitsui 25%. CF will operate and maintain the plant in Ascension Parish, while all three will have a stake in offtaking the blue ammonia product. The greenfield autothermal reforming (ATR) ammonia plant with an equipped carbon capture unit is estimated to cost $4bn, with the three partners funding the development based on their ownership percentage of the JV. CF says it will invest around $550m – separate from the $4bn plant cost – to build and operate “scalable infrastructure” at the Blue Point site for ammonia storage and loading. The plant is [...]

The electrolysers will be used to produce hydrogen for storage and dispensing on-site at a refuelling station planned for a former German Armed Forces base in Mechernich, North Rhine-Westphalia. The station will be operated by Regional Transport Cologne (RVK), which is already using over 100 hydrogen buses – adding to its existing stations in Meckenheim and Wermelskirchen. Marking RVK’s first station with integrated hydrogen production, the site will produce up to 900kg of hydrogen per day. Engineering firm Ingenion will deliver the project, which is expected to begin operations by the end of 2026. Formerly H-Tec Systems, Quest One announced [...]

Under project Eco2Fly, the project partners will capture a portion of the CO2 produced at Holcim’s cement plant. The new facility in Toledo is designed to capture over 700,000 tonnes of CO2 per year during cement production, while the unused CO2 will be permanently stored underground. In an online statement, the partners claimed Eco2Fly will avoid emissions of over 6.5 million tonnes of CO2 across its first 10 years of operation. The three companies plan to submit the initiative to the next call of the EU’s Innovation Funds to de-risk the high Capex project. José Antonio Membiela, CEO of Ignis [...]

Currently under construction at the Fincantieri Ancona shipyard in Italy, the vessel is scheduled for delivery in late 2026. Additionally, a subsequent ship will also be delivered for Viking at the shipyard a year later – also hydrogen-powered and dubbed the Viking Astrea. Fincantieri’s subsidiary, Isotta Fraschini Motori (IFM), will provide fuel cell technology tailor-made for the ‘Viking Libra’ cruise ship, capable of delivering 6MW of power. The vessel will be able to load and store hydrogen directly onboard the ship via its containerised system. With a gross tonnage of approximately 54,300 tonnes and a length of 239 metres, the [...]

Part of the Bad Lauchstädt Energy Park near Leipzig, the pipeline will deliver up to 2,700 tonnes of green hydrogen per year to the Leuna refinery once the facility comes online at the end of 2025. The hydrogen will be produced using Sunfire alkaline electrolysers, powered by an on-site wind farm. The project – which is being undertaken by Uniper, Terrawatt, Ontras and VNG – reached a €210m final investment decision (FID) in 2023. Led by German gas network operator Ontras, the project team has disconnected the pipeline from the natural gas grid, reinforced it for hydrogen use, and completed [...]

The Kassø power-to-X facility in Aabenraa is the “world’s first” commercial-scale e-methanol facility, with an annual capacity of 42,000 tonnes. Last month, the Kassø plant produced its first molecules of hydrogen-derived e-methanol. The certification was granted through the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) EU scheme. It confirmed that the methanol production meets renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO) criteria. In an online statement, European Energy claimed the certification is a first of its kind for methanol production. The process covered independent verification of renewable electricity sourcing, and the carbon origin used in production. The ISCC’s certification also means that [...]
