The UK-based firm plans to decarbonise hard-to-electrify vehicles such as fire engines, ambulances, and HGVs with its new range. The loan marks a step beyond UlemCo’s existing dual fuel hydrogen technology, which allows diesel engines to run partly on hydrogen. The new range will deliver fully zero-emission options, combining electric motors with hydrogen combustion or fuel-cell systems. “Our dual fuel solution enables them to quickly convert existing vehicles and reduce the use of fossil fuels,” explained Amanda Lyne, founder and Managing Director of UlemCo. “However, our goal has always been to offer zero emissions solutions too. We know that for [...]

In the latest Innovation Fund round, financed through revenues from the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) awarded grants to 61 Net Zero projects across 19 sectors and 18 countries. Wopke Hoekstra, Commissioner for Climate, Net Zero, and Clean Growth, said the funding will turn European climate ambitions into an industrial reality.   Project developers will move into the grant agreement preparation phase with CINEA in the first half of 2026. Hydrogen transport and mobility Four transport-focused hydrogen projects in Norway, Finland, and the Czech Republic have been awarded EU Innovation Fund [...]

Rheinmetall’s Giga PtX concept envisions a network of several hundred modular plants across Europe capable of producing between 5,000 and 7,000 tonnes of CO2-neutral fuels annually. The facilities are expected to generate diesel, marine diesel, or kerosene, produced by combining green hydrogen with captured CO2. Sunfire’s pressurised alkaline electrolysers will be the basis for hydrogen production for the facilities. Further ahead, its solid oxide electrolysis (SOEC) technology could further boost efficiency by utilising waste heat from the process. Partner companies Greenlyte Carbon Technologies and Ineratec will contribute direct air capture and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis technologies, respectively, completing the e-fuel production chain. [...]

Topsoe expects its newly inaugurated solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) factory to be “fully loaded” within the next few years, according to the firm’s Power-to-X CEO. The €300m ($345.8m) plant in Herning, Denmark, officially opened on 30 October with a capacity of 500MW. Kim Hedegaard told a virtual press briefing beyond the firm’s initial two customers for the hydrogen production technology, it had “many more in the pipeline”, despite a wider market slowdown.

Financed by Hy24, the facility can produce around eight tonnes of green hydrogen per day. A second phase is expected to add 100MW subphases, raising total capacity to 300MW, with phase three set to go up to 1GW by 2030. Green hydrogen is already being supplied to the neighbouring Crossbridge Energy refinery, where it uses 35 tonnes per day to replace fossil-derived hydrogen in the production of conventional fuels. Meanwhile, Danish district heating operator TVIS is a surplus heat offtaker. The HySnergy plant was also certified under the EU’s Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin (RFNBO) criteria in September, confirming that [...]

The university’s Integrated Cracking Burner (ICB) system converts a portion of ammonia into hydrogen using waste heat from combustion, feeding it back into the flame to enhance efficiency and stability without separate hydrogen storage or supply. The project was designed with future support for off-grid industrial sites in mind, which together burn about 4.5 million tonnes of oil per year in the UK – equivalent to 14 million tonnes of CO2 emissions. Cardiff University’s £3.4m ($4.4m) Amburn project, led by the School of Engineering and Net Zero Innovation Institute, is funded by the UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and [...]

The funding will come from the Innovation Fund, using up to €40bn in revenues from the EU Emissions Trading System. The selected projects, drawn from 359 applications, span 19 industrial sectors and focus on energy-intensive industries, renewable energy and energy storage, net zero mobility and buildings, cleantech manufacturing and industrial carbon management. They include Luxia, Spain (green hydrogen for ammonia and methanol); Endor, Arcadia e-Fuels, Denmark (PtL for eSAF and eNAP using biogenic CO2 and hydrogen); H2CWay, Czech Republic – developing two IVECO FCEV buses; P2XH, Estonia – e-methanol production using green hydrogen for shipping and h2 for mobility; H2EAT, Italy [...]

Under a strategic collaboration, the two companies plan to deploy thermal plasma electrolysis (TPE) units at Agile’s Thainstone facility in Inverurie, which will process up to 200,000 tonnes of industrial and municipal waste per year. Agile is a UK-based developer of low-carbon energy parks – sites that combine waste processing, energy generation, and clean technology. The Thainstone Integrated Resource Facility (IRF) is currently under construction. The partners aim to integrate hydrogen production on-site and explore combining captured CO2 from the waste facility with HiiRoc’s hydrogen to produce low-carbon e-methanol. HiiRoc’s technology produces hydrogen from natural gas or biomethane using electric plasma, rather than water electrolysis. The British firm [...]

Fleet operators in Seoul and Vienna will use TAM’s new 700-bar hydrogen fuel low-entry city bus for public transport services. The bus model integrates a fuel cell system from Hyundai, hydrogen storage tanks, and a power control system. H2 View understands that TAM Europe currently has an annual production capacity of 500 electric commercial vehicles. Over the next three years, it plans to produce around 100 hydrogen-powered vehicles per year. Before the company went bankrupt in 2011, the Maribor-based manufacturer was one of the country’s largest vehicle producers. It was revived in 2013 after being acquired by China Hi-Tech Group [...]

Announced today (3 November) by Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen, the programme establishes a certification system to underpin Australia’s clean energy industries. The framework could extend to green metals and low-carbon fuels. The GO scheme is expected to give investors, exporters, and consumers “confidence in the carbon credentials” of Australian-made products. Aligned with global standards, Dr. Fiona Simon, CEO of the Australian Hydrogen Council (AHC), said the scheme signals that the nation is “open for business with a robust methodology.” Administered by the Clean Energy Regulator, two types of certificates can be awarded: Product GO (PGO), which records [...]
