The offering is expected to close around 28 November and is tabled to raise between CAD $20m and CAD $30m ($21.4m), with shares priced at CAD $0.45 ($0.32). Next plans to use the proceeds to accelerate sales and manufacturing of its alkaline hydrogen production technology. “We believe this will fully realise the potential of the innovative technology the team has developed over the past decade,” said Chair Allan MacKenzie. The firm said it would market its existing 150Nm3/h NH150 systems, while completing the development of its megawatt-class NH500 electrolyser. Earlier this year, Next announced it would look to lean on [...]

The Oslo-headquartered firm said it had “fulfilled” the requirements set by government-owned Enova to press ahead with its developments in Kristiansund and Slagentangen. Both projects are planned to supply green hydrogen and derivatives to the maritime sector, although exact production capacities remain undisclosed. In Kristiansund, GreenH said its project at Vestbase will provide oil field equipment supplier NorSea Group’s customers with direct bunkering to reduce hydrogen transportation costs. The site in Slagentangen will supply up to 20,000 tonnes of hydrogen and 100,000 tonnes of ammonia annually at Exxon Mobil affiliate Esso Norge’s terminal outside of Tønsberg. Electrolyser maker Nel has [...]

Hydrogen Capital Growth (HGEN), which held around 12.5% of Bramble’s equity, has written down its £11m ($14.5m) holding to zero, representing 9% of its net asset value (NAV) as of 31 March 2025. Bramble had been seeking investment from third-party investors. However, HGEN said in a portfolio update statement, “It has recently become apparent that Bramble’s fundraising process has been unsuccessful in securing new financing, without which the company is unable to operate viably.” As such, Bramble progressed to an accelerated sale process for its entire business on 6 November, which was run by an independent advisor. “Whilst a number [...]

Demand for Cummins’ electrolyser products has “dried up,” with the decline felt most sharply in the US market, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Mark Smith revealed during the company’s Q3 2025 earnings call. Smith told investors weaker order volumes created a “hole” in projections for the next couple of years, describing the downturn as a surprise. Cummins announced on Thursday (6 November) it had recorded $240m in non-cash charges within its Accelera segment, leading to a “strategic review” of its electrolyser business amid “policy-driven shifts in hydrogen adoption expectations.” This is a paid article, to read the article in full you [...]

In an effort to reassure stakeholders, FPH2 said private-sector hydrogen suppliers and end-users were continuing projects despite federal funds being cancelled. The statement comes after the Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy Systems (ARCHES) puts its plans to build a clean hydrogen hub in California on ice, following the Department of Energy’s (DOE) termination of funding for the scheme. ARCHES had been set to receive $1.2bn from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to support projects aimed at building up clean hydrogen supply and demand. The DOE axed the funding as part of a $7.5bn clean energy rollback, which the administration said [...]

The 50:50 offshore wind joint venture between Japan’s Jera and BP said the Ostend Hydrogen Refuelling Station will store and dispense green hydrogen produced by Lhyfe in France and Germany. Beginning its demonstration phase this year, the facility will refuel Windcat’s hydrogen-powered crew transfer vessel, the Hydrocat 48, and has the capacity to serve “several vessels daily.” Engineering manufacturing firm Haskel led the construction of the facility, with support through the EU-funded Implementation of Ship Hybridisation (ISHY) programme. “Research and innovation are at the heart of how we approach the full life cycle of offshore wind projects,” explained Kristof Verlinden, Head of Global [...]

Customer contracts and hopes of onboarding new offtakers are keeping Air Products committed to building its delayed, over-budget net-zero hydrogen energy complex in Alberta, Canada.

The plant, which is already being constructed at OMV’s Schwechat refinery, is expected to come online in 2027 to replace volumes of grey hydrogen already used at the site. Under the new joint venture, OMV will look to lean on Masdar’s commercial and financial strength in developing and operating clean energy projects. Pending shareholder and regulatory approvals, the joint venture will close in early 2026. It builds off a 2023 heads of terms agreement between the pair to explore using green hydrogen to clean up OMV’s refinery assets. OMV took final investment decision on the project in May, claiming it [...]

Air Products believes it could still proceed with its paused $4.5bn blue hydrogen plant in Louisiana, US, according to its CEO. Speaking during the industrial gas firm’s Q4 results, Eduardo Menezes said although the development would not go ahead without an offtake agreement, there may be a way to make the project bankable. The Louisiana development was announced in 2021 with plans to produce up to 1,700 tonnes of blue hydrogen per day and convert it into ammonia.
