H2-View News: Norwegian Hydrogen acquires green hydrogen project from Aker Horizon and inks deal with Nel
As part of the deal, the green hydrogen producer will take over the existing power purchase agreement (PPA) signed with Tinn Energi, to ensure the project has access to renewable energy. Additionally, Norwegian Hydrogen has entered into a Letter of Intent with electrolyser manufacturer Nel to deliver a pressurised alkaline electrolysis plant for the 25MW plant, which could be scaled up. However, Nel revealed last week that it will temporarily halt production of its alkaline technology in Herøya due to slow uptake.

H2-View News: IH2A urges Indian Government to boost green hydrogen subsidies to $4.8bn
The industry coalition cited concerns about slow project development and the lack of green hydrogen offtake agreements, which could potentially undermine India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission. To turn the tide, IH2A has recommended that the government issue demand-side incentives to industrial end-users in the industrial sectors – specifically refining, fertilisers, steel, chemicals, and heavy-duty transport sectors. It also calls for CAPEX subsidies to support project developers in building shared hydrogen infrastructure at hydrogen hubs nationwide. To support the plans, the IH2A suggests that the government should set up Green Hydrogen Development Corporations (GHDCs) to support project, hub and shared infrastructure [...]
H2-View News: IEEFA report tells utilities to rethink domestic hydrogen heating plans
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 [...]
H2-View News: Nel to deliver 5MW of PEM electrolysers to unnamed steel producer in the US
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 [...]
H2-View News: Southern Hydrogen Corridor gains momentum with joint declaration signed in Rome
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 [...]
H2-View News: Cavendish Hydrogen to cut workforce by 45% and halt hydrogen refuelling station development
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. Read more: Nel invests in Cavendish Hydrogen spin-off to secure long-term stability “While the overall long-term outlook for hydrogen fuelling stations, specifically for heavy-duty vehicles, continues to look promising with the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR) in place, we need to reduce our cost base significantly and adapt to the current [...]
H2-View News: Hydrogen funding faces uncertainty as Trump suspends IRA and IIJA subsidies
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.

H2-View News: ArcelorMittal’s hydrogen furnaces in Poland enter start-up phase
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 [...]
