Located at West Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill in Richmond, Raven will process up to 99 tonnes of waste per day through its steam reforming technology, which would also help California avoid up to 7,200 tonnes per year of landfill CO2 emissions. The US-based energy firm will now complete final engineering revisions required by the permit conditions and prepare building permit packages. Raven anticipates the start of construction in 2026. The final Air Permit and Authority to Construct (ATC) from the Bay Area Air District (BAAD) comes over two years after Raven was approved for its California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) [...]

The off-grid generator uses green hydrogen in a third-party fuel cell to generate power, which is stored in a sodium battery to provide electricity when needed. Developed by Sky engineers, the unit is now on trial at its Elstree studios near London to assess its potential as it looks to clean up TV production. It has not disclosed the system’s power output. Citing the screen industry environmental group Albert, Sky said around 15% of emissions from high-budget productions come from burning fossil fuels in mobile power use. “This new technology is a brilliant example of how innovation and sustainability can [...]

Due to the contractually guaranteed purchase volumes agreed by hylane, customers are offered reduced prices for green hydrogen at facilities in Düsseldorf and Rhine-Neckar. H2 Mobility can supply fuel at €8/kg because the stations involved in the deal are large, high-utilisation sites located along major freight corridors; its Düsseldorf station has a capacity of up to five tonnes per day. Hydrogen at public refuelling stations in Germany typically costs between €10–€15/kg, but €8/kg brings fuel cell trucks closer to diesel parity. © hylane The offer, however, applies only to hylane customers and only at two regional clusters, meaning the reduced [...]

Europe’s current carbon pricing policy instruments are not sufficient to scale clean hydrogen, a new report has warned, highlighting the need for uptake quotas in key markets. The PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) study, commissioned by lobby group Hydrogen Europe, argued without new lead market laws, Europe risks missing its climate goals and undermining industrial competitiveness. It estimates that carbon prices €180/tonne and €560/tonne would be needed to make clean hydrogen-based steel and ammonia competitive against fossil-based processes.

The Nordic start-up has launched or announced multiple alkaline electrolyser modules since its establishment. In 2024, it unveiled its 25kW module and stated its intention to develop larger designs exceeding 250kW. Anders Johansson, the company’s CEO, said the agreement with Uniper is a “strong endorsement” of Hymeth’s Hyaeon technology. Uniper is expected to install the system in Malmö, where it operates the 448MW Öresundsverket gas-fired power plant. While not yet confirmed, the 25kW alkaline electrolyser is likely to be deployed at the site, which has been reinstated as part of Sweden’s electricity preparedness system. Integrating an electrolyser could allow Uniper [...]

The automotive major plans to manufacture PEM electrolyser systems and related components and “position them as a global export business,” not just for domestic supply. Specifically, Hyundai noted that it will capitalise on the “readily available supply of renewable energy” in the southwest region, in addition to nearby hydrogen shipment centres and refuelling stations. The 1GW plant commitment builds on Hyundai’s ongoing hydrogen manufacturing expansion. Last month, the firm broke ground on its hydrogen fuel cell and electrolyser facility in Ulsan, which is set to begin production in 2027. The KRW 930bn ($651m) facility is expected to produce 30,000 fuel [...]

Under a strategic collaboration, the US oil and gas giant will take methane pyrolysis developed by the German chemicals firm over the past “several years” to deliver an “efficient, cost-competitive, low-emission hydrogen solution.” The technology has been developed by BASF in a project funded by the German government. “We have been working on this technology for more than a decade and developed a superior reactor concept that we have successfully validated at our test plant in Ludwigshafen,” said BASF Chief Technology Officer Dr Stephan Kothrade. H2 View understands BASF’s pilot plant has been operating since 2021 at the German site. [...]

The two companies are already collaborating on a commercial pilot in Pohang, South Korea, where they plan to install a hydrogen-based ammonia distributed power system in 2026 and scale it up to 40MW by 2029. GS Engineering and Construction led the funding round, which included participation from affiliated venture investors Xplor and GS Futures. With the deal closed, GS E&C gains access to Amogy’s on-site ammonia-to-hydrogen technology, which can feed hydrogen into a fuel cell. The company aims to help engineer, build and scale the system globally. “This investment goes beyond a simple financial participation – it represents a strategic [...]

The US hydrogen firm said Carlton Power had selected it to supply electrolyser systems to its Trafford, Langage, and Barrow-in-Furness projects, which were all selected for subsidies from the first Hydrogen Allocation Round (HAR1). Under an equipment supply and long-term service agreement, Plug will provide 30MW of its GenEco electrolysers for the Barrow project, 15MW to Trafford, and 10MW to Langage. The Barrow plant will supply hydrogen to paper product manufacturer Kimberly-Clarke after it inked an offtake agreement with Carlton to replace volumes of natural gas currently used. Trafford, planned to be built within the Trafford Low Carbon Energy Park [...]

The newly launched UK Ammonia Alliance (UKAA) released its eight recommendations in a report, where it said the UK’s existing ammonia-capable ports could make it a “global trading and bunkering hub”. “We need coordinated action across industry and government to make the most of the UK’s innovation, expertise, and competitive advantages,” said UKAA Chair and Chief Technology Officer of AFC Energy, Dr Mike Rendall. Currently, the UK does not recognise imported low-carbon ammonia within its national hydrogen strategy, meaning it is not eligible for subsidies or support, reflecting the government’s focus on “home-grown” energy. Additionally, the compound is not classed [...]
