The liquid hydrogen will be used to fuel NASA’s cryogenic rocket engines and support aeronautics and propulsion research at its centres in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and Ohio. Worth a combined $147m, the contracts cover 16,560 tonnes of liquid hydrogen for Kennedy Space Centre, Cape Canaveral, Marshall, and Stennis, while Plug Power will supply the remaining 220 tonnes to the Glenn Research Centre and Armstrong Test Facility. NASA’s liquid hydrogen awards are fixed-price contracts that guarantee set quantities and prices for future deliveries. For its cryogenic rockets, the liquid hydrogen will be used with liquid oxygen as fuel. Liquid hydrogen’s ultra-cold [...]

The Marseille-Fos H2 facility can refuel all types of vehicles, from heavy-duty trucks to passenger cars, at pressures of 350 bar and 700 bar. The station builds on Teal Mobility’s network of facilities in France. By the end of 2025, it expects to be operating around 20 sites in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, and the Netherlands. Hydrogen refuelling stations at the Paris West Station and in Remis are scheduled to come online soon. The opening of the Fos-sur-Mer station comes as Teal Mobility and other European operators have tabled calls for faster hydrogen vehicle deployment. The partners established the Hydrogen [...]

Located in the Niigata Prefecture at Kashiwazaki City, the facility features a blue hydrogen production plant coupled with a carbon capture system, an ammonia conversion plant, and carbon storage at the depleted Hirai gas field. The blue hydrogen will be used to generate electricity through the Kashiwazaki hydrogen power plant, which is then sent through the local grid to homes and businesses in the region. A portion of that hydrogen will be used to fuel the ammonia synthesis unit. Once the ammonia is produced, INPEX will supply it locally under a “local production for local consumption” model. As a demonstration [...]

That warning comes from the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), which says recent revisions by the Department of Energy (DOE) to its 45V hydrogen emissions model could allow projects to report methane pollution far below real-world levels and still qualify for subsidies. Under Section 45V of the Inflation Reduction Act, projects can claim up to $3/kg of hydrogen, with credit levels tied to carbon intensity calculated through a dedicated lifecycle emissions model. Early estimates suggested only renewable-powered electrolytic hydrogen would qualify for the full $3/kg credit, while fossil-based pathways with carbon capture would receive closer to $1/kg. However, the climate group [...]

CDT intends to adopt a build-own-operate business model for plants using high-temperature pyrolysis and gasification technology to take solid organic waste and turn it into syngas and hydrogen. H2 View understands waste is converted into syngas in an oxygen-free reactor operating at 700–900ºC. Syngas produced by the company’s plants will either be combusted to supply industrial steam or purified into hydrogen for industrial or fuel cell applications. “The distinctive feature of our technical solution is that it provides multiple potential commercialisation pathways for the same syngas stream,” said CDT CEO Li Yunwu. “This flexibility enables us to optimise project configurations [...]

The Low-Carbon Fuels Delegated Act sets rules on how hydrogen can be classified as “low-carbon,” covering production pathways like natural gas reforming with carbon capture, non-exclusively renewable-powered electrolysers, and methane pyrolysis. The rules require producers to demonstrate at least 70% fewer emissions than fossil fuels – equating to 28.2gCO2eq/MJ – through a methodology for full lifecycle emissions. This includes upstream methane emissions and actual carbon capture rates. It comes after the European Parliament voted not to object to the rules originally proposed by the European Commission, after assurances were offered by Energy Commissioner Dan Jørgensen. They included confirmation of grandfathering provisions, [...]

Under a Development Agreement, the partners will collaborate on a Concept Study to assess the technical and economic feasibility of how HiiRoc can act as the hydrogen producer for the pipeline project. At EMP’s site in Nottingham, the firm plans to produce up to three tonnes of turquoise hydrogen per day, with plans to scale up to 50 tonnes if the wider consortium plan is realised. That hydrogen would then be injected into or stored within the pipeline network, which is set to connect producers and consumers in Nottingham and Birmingham. The agreement with HiiRoc also supports the EMP consortium’s [...]

The plant will convert around 500,000 tonnes of waste into SAF per year, using a hybrid production pathway that combines renewable-powered green hydrogen production and syngas from waste gasification. Once operational, the project is expected to serve multiple markets, in a bid to position Abu Dhabi as a regional SAF hub and support decarbonising a sector that accounted for over 18% of the UAE’s GDP in 2023, according to International Air Transport Association (IATA) data. Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, CEO at Masdar, said the project will advance the UAE’s profile in sustainable aviation, supporting the growth of a sector critical [...]

The selection from German-based Stablegrid Group could see ITM provide electrolysers to its 30MW and 680MW developments aimed at producing green hydrogen during periods of surplus renewables for storage in underground caverns. The partners say the projects’ focus on grid-balancing could be significant, noting the “grid bridge” operating mode could help reduce negative redispatch costs, which they said amount to €2-3bn ($2.3–3.5bn) per year. In practice, this means using electrolysers to absorb surplus renewable power before redispatch measures, where system operators adjust power output to prevent or resolve grid bottlenecks, are triggered. “Reducing these costs to zero while putting surplus [...]

That was a key message from a new AVL whitepaper, hosted on h2-view.com, which warned that the absence of these components posed “significant challenges” for performance benchmarking, technology comparison, and certification. “This is particularly problematic as governments and certification agencies move toward results-based incentive schemes and compliance-driven evaluations,” it stated. The whitepaper detailed how an electrolyser’s Specific Energy Consumption (SEC) – the energy consumed to produce per unit of hydrogen – could vary between different technology types and plant designs, depending on how it is measured. It noted SEC calculations can be “oversimplified” and said AVL’s measurement approach included electrical [...]
