Stargate said its 10MW Aurora system achieves 14.4 m² per MW, making it the “most space-efficient alkaline electrolyser of its kind on the market.” Space constraints remain a challenge for industrial hydrogen users. The electrolyser module integrates two 5MW Starbase stacks with a stack consumption of less than 49kWh/kg of hydrogen, and features an outdoor-ready design with a compact form factor. Stargate’s CEO, Marko Virkebau, said the launch of these new products addresses “two main barriers for industrial hydrogen adoption: cost of hydrogen and space constraints at industrial sites.” The CEO added, “By delivering the most compact and high-efficiency 10MW [...]

The containerised MC500 unit will be delivered to the Association for Waste Disposal in Buchs. The electrolyser will produce green hydrogen using renewable power from a 190,000-tonne-per-year waste incineration plant. Rather than letting residual electricity go unused or into the grid, the project diverts that power to produce green hydrogen, closing a circular loop by fuelling regional demands, such as the local waste collection fleet. H2 Energy’s electrolyser order represents the second MC500 system it has ordered from the Norwegian OEM, alongside a containerised MC400 and a smaller C30 PEM unit. “H2 Energy has a long history of trusted cooperation [...]

A majority of Chart shareholders voted in favour of the merger agreement, which will see shares priced at $210 once the transaction is completed. The deal is expected to be completed by mid-year 2026. “We are pleased to deliver this transaction to Chart shareholders and thank them for their support,” said Chart President and CEO Jill Evanko. By making the acquisition, Baker Hughes said it would support its plans of positioning itself as a “leading energy and industrial technology company,” by gaining Chart’s liquid hydrogen and LNG capabilities. It comes just a couple of months after Chart announced it would [...]

The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWE) said the second round of CCFDs would be “more flexible, more SME-friendly, and more technology neutral” than the 2024 auction, which awarded €2.8bn ($3.3bn) to 15 projects. Energy Minister Katherina Reiche recently told the Bundestag that €6bn ($7.02bn) would be available for CCFDs in 2026. The mechanism aims to protect companies investing in low-carbon processes against price risks associated with energy costs and emissions trading schemes. “If the CO2 price rises, the subsidy decreases, and vice-versa,” the BMWE said. “Other subsidies, such as electricity price compensation, are deducted from the subsidy [...]

Hydrospark has developed a platform that uses ceramic materials to produce solid oxide electrolyser cells (SOECs) with higher energy density and reduced manufacturing costs. According to the company, these cells produce electricity and heat from hydrogen with high efficiency and zero emissions. They can also convert renewable energy into hydrogen. “This investment will allow us to validate our technology in an actual production facility, while seizing the opportunity to grow and position ourselves as a leading player in the hydrogen market,” said Fabrizio Gualandris, CEO of Hydrospark. Using this funding, it aims to break even and achieve an annual production [...]

Under a new memorandum of understanding (MOU), the state-owned renewables firm will assess using Etihad Rail’s national network to transport hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, sustainable aviation fuel and more. Etihad Rail currently operates 900km of network across the UAE from Ghuwaifat to Fujairah, linking ports, industrial clusters, and trade centres. © Etihad Rail The operator’s CEO, Shadi Malak, said the network would provide “critical infrastructure” for moving green hydrogen and derivatives at “scale”. The technical details behind the cooperation remain unclear. Most long-distance hydrogen transportation developments have recently focused on pipelines or using derivatives like ammonia to reduce costs. While hydrogen-by-rail [...]

The 2.6MW Sunfire-made electrolyser operates at up to 850ºC to produce over 60kg of green hydrogen per hour, making it what project partners call the “world’s largest” multi-megawatt high-temperature electrolyser in an industrial environment. Hydrogen generated by the system is being used to replace grey hydrogen at the site to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Installed as part of the EU-funded MultiPLHY project by Neste, Sunfire, French research organisation CEA, and energy firm Engie, the electrolyser uses heat produced by the refinery to reduce the amount of electricity required for hydrogen production. “This installation is the largest of its kind [...]

A recent study by the analyst firm Boston Consulting Group found that by positioning itself as a pioneer in the production and adoption of SAF, Morocco could not only steal a march on its neighbours, but also strengthen its energy autonomy and its image. There is lots that comes with that statement, of course. One challenge is how to push forward SAF when green hydrogen and ammonia have yet to take off. This may explain why references to SAF were few and far between last week at the World Power-to-X Summit in Marrakech – certainly compared with the two renewable [...]

The loan package from Barclays and the Export and Investment Fund of Denmark (EIFO) will be used to build its UK government-backed 15MW HyMarnham joint project with JG Pears. The package, which includes a £16.5m ($22.2m) guarantee from EIFO, marks the Danish state-owned financial institution’s “first” international Power-to-X guarantee. “The UK has been our single largest market for years thanks to our involvement in offshore wind, and we now see a clear opportunity to expand our role in green hydrogen,” said EIFO Chief Commercial Officer, Peter Boeskov. HyMarnham, which is due online in November, will receive revenue subsidies under the [...]

The electrolyser manufacturer said the contract for the undisclosed project was based on “multiple” 5MW containerised systems – often selected for ease of installation. While project capacity and client details remain undisclosed, the plant is expected to come online in 2028. However, the development has been selected for the Hydrogen Allocation Round 2. This scheme is designed to back larger green hydrogen projects, with 27 projects shortlisted earlier this year, representing up to 765MW of capacity. HAR2 will offer contracts for difference-style revenue support to projects to give developers long-term price certainty. ITM has already been selected to supply six [...]
