That’s the scathing message from a new Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) report which told hydrogen producers that plan on relying on home heating as a market to “think again.” The report’s headline findings warn that hydrogen in homes poses health and safety risks, could delay electrification, would produce NOx and is also inefficient. “The future for hydrogen blending with natural gas for home heating and cooking is not bright, as the purported benefits are far from impressive and fail to stack up against the risks,” it reads. Citing several studies and real-world experiences, the report warns [...]

Two 2.5MW MC500 electrolysers will be delivered to the undisclosed customer, which already uses two additional Nel electrolysers to generate hydrogen at two other sites in the US. The most recent order will be delivered from Nel’s manufacturing facility in Wallingford, Connecticut, to be used in a new steel mill in the US. Nel’s Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), Todd Cartwright, said the order signifies the customer’s “satisfaction with the performance of [Nel’s] electrolysers.” Cartwright added, “We continue to see an increasing demand for our containerised PEM electrolysers for smaller installations as this reliable turn-key concept offers easy outdoor installation and [...]

The initiative will establish a direct pipeline connection for gaseous hydrogen between North Africa, Italy, Austria and Germany, consisting of five sub-projects and spanning 3,500-4,000km. The respective transmission system operators (TSOs) are currently planning for the European segment to be 3,250km long, with 60-70% being repurposed natural gas pipelines. H2 View understands that this will enable the transport of up to 163TWh of green hydrogen annually to Europe. Following the signing of a JDoI, the next step for the consortium is to finalise plans for the hydrogen pipeline to North Africa, which is supported by the German Federal Ministry for [...]

The company was spun out of Norwegian electrolyser manufacturing company Nel last year, which took a 4.85% stake in Cavendish Hydrogen on Monday (January 20) in a bid to boost the refuelling station supplier’s finances. The firm’s stocks fell by around 82% from June 2023 to January 17, 2025.

Within hours of taking office, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to suspend further funding from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). Both acts, which created huge subsidies for the clean hydrogen sector, will have their “processes, policies and programmes for issuing grants, loans, contracts or any other financial disbursements” reviewed.

The project represents an investment worth PLN 52m ($12.6m). However, the world’s second-largest steelmaker previously said it would delay final investment decisions (FIDs) on decarbonisation projects after the European policy, energy and market landscape had not moved in a “favourable direction.” Read more: ArcelorMittal freezes green hydrogen DRI projects, blaming slow policy progress ArcelorMittal’s initiative in Poland has seen hydrogen-ready annealing furnaces installed at the existing plant, which will reduce CO2 emissions by 50% due to the elimination of ammonia from the annealing process. The sheet metal painting lines are expected to be consumed by customers in the household appliances [...]

The deal will focus on ammonia sourcing, ship-based transportation and delivery to floating import terminals where ammonia will be cracked for delivery to SEFE customers through Germany’s 9,000km hydrogen core network (HCN). The pair will also look at possible locations for floating ammonia-to-hydrogen terminals along the Baltic Sea and North Sea cost, as well as other European locations. Under the MOU, SEFE will manage upstream hydrogen supply and downstream use. Marine infrastructure firm, Höegh Evi, will work on the midstream infrastructure using floating terminal infrastructure. Last July the company partnered with Deutsche ReGas to develop a floating hydrogen import terminal, [...]

Reflecting on the slew of executive orders from US President Donald Trump, reaffirming traditional fossil fuel and LNG development, he said, “As Europeans, we should stick to the goal – so what we have in the Green Deal, we should stick to from a climate and competitive perspective. What we should change is being more open on the ways to acheive it.” “In a few domains we’ve been way too strict. With hydrogen, we say x% needs to be green hydrogen and x% needs to be this type of hydrogen. I don’t think we should define it – we should [...]

The Heartland Hydrogen Hub has secured the first $20m of the $925m it was allocated in 2023, while the Mid-Atlantic Hydrogen Hub (MACH2) was awarded $18.8m of the total $750m. The announcement came on January 17. MACH2, located in Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey, plans to produce green hydrogen for industrial applications and heavy-duty transportation, with several refuelling locations planned to serve trucks and fuel cell electric buses. The University of North Dakota Energy and Environmental Research Centre (EERC) is leading the development of the Heartland Hydrogen Hub, which will cover projects in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Colorado, Montana [...]
