The steel was produced at its Montpelier, Iowa, facility, using scrap metal, fossil-free electricity, biocoal, renewable natural gas, and hydrogen-reduced iron through the Swedish steelmaker’s Hybrit process. By adding hydrogen-reduced iron to the manufacturing process, the steel now meets the IEA’s requirements of near-zero steel.  “This technical breakthrough represents our market leadership,” explained Chuck Schmitt, SSAB Americas President. “SSAB Zero gives our customers confidence that they’re not compromising on quality while advancing their sustainability goals.” The green steel is scheduled to be deployed in GE Vernova wind towers across the US. Both companies are members of the First Movers Coalition, which [...]

Currently most commercially scaled SAF production facilities use HEFA technology, for example converting used cooking oil into SAF. Airlines will need 500 million tonnes (Mt) of SAF to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Biomass has the potential to produce more than 300 Mt of bio-SAF annually by 2050 and power-to-liquid (PtL) will also be required to reach the target. Reliable access to the low-cost renewable electricity, hydrogen, and carbon capture infrastructure “are all required as part of the PtL production method,” it notes. Hydrogen-based SAF producer Haffner Energy recently signed a 15-year offtake agreement with business aviation operator [...]

As a result, founder Jonas Moberg will move into a strategic board role on October 15, 2025. The new CEO is expected to lead GH2’s push for stronger policy support, cost reductions, and project scale-up across the industry. Williams has served as GH2’s deputy CEO since 2023, after previously leading advocacy at the Natural Resource Governance Institute. “The green hydrogen sector has faced headwinds over the last couple of years, and there is still work to do to drive down the cost of green hydrogen and its derivatives, including green ammonia,” the incoming CEO said. “Governments need to go further [...]

Representatives of the wind turbine giant met with officials from the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) as well as Australia and New Zealand Bank Group (ANZ). Under a cooperation agreement with ANZ, Envision aims to build a “green finance ecosystem” and deepen its involvement in Australia. Envision Senior Vice President Kane Xu said Australia was a “cornerstone market” as the firm looks to expand its hydrogen and ammonia portfolio. While Envision’s announcement stopped short of revealing firm plans, ANZ’s Global Head of Resources, Energy & Infrastructure, Paul Richards, said the bank would develop “comprehensive financial solutions” to help “empower [...]

Most European gas networks can safely handle up to 20% hydrogen blends, according to energy engineering and consultancy firm Penspen. CEO Peter O’Sullivan told H2 View that the majority of Europe’s distribution networks are plastic, mostly polyethylene (HDPE/MDPE), which is immune to hydrogen embrittlement, one of the main risks in metallic pipelines.

Under the agreement, the steel will be processed into components for Microsoft’s data centre network, while the EACs separate the environmental benefit from the physical product. This means Stegra can sell the physical steel as a conventional material to other buyers, while Microsoft claims the emissions savings through the certificates. The model avoids double-counting and helps finance further near-zero-emission steel production. “Through the EACs, the green value can be sold to Microsoft – a player of a unique size that can really help move the needle in the right direction,” explained Henrik Henriksson, Stegra CEO. “Microsoft has chosen to team [...]

CEO Klaus Rosenfeld confirmed the decision last week, after hydrogen was put through the company’s portfolio management test: if a business area fails to deliver after three years, it risks being exited. “Years ago, everyone was super optimistic about hydrogen,” Rosenfeld said. “We have decided that we’re not going to further invest in this. We’re going to bring it to China, where the prospects are much better.” Schaeffler had invested in developing hydrogen technologies in Europe, such as fuel cell components like bipolar plates. Schaeffler also worked on in-house PEM fuel cell stacks, mainly for mobility applications. They now plan [...]

The Department of Labor and Industry reported that 14 staff will be let go from 17 November. Gardner specialises in manufacturing large tanks for transporting liquid hydrogen and helium and it is believed the move follows a downturn in orders. The well-established firm has produced more than 2,000 liquid helium and hydrogen tanks and containers down the decades. The Fogelsville facility – a hub for producing oxygen, nitrogen, and argon as well as specialty gases – will also permanently close, according to reports. In Air Products’ Q2 earnings call this year the company’s recently installed CEO Eduardo Menezes talked about [...]

Under a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed with the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*Star), they plan to launch hydrogen-based ammonia pilot projects on Jurong Island. Singapore hosts several grey hydrogen plants, mainly on Jurong Island, according to GWGI data. Ammonia cracking could offer a lower-carbon alternative to today’s grey hydrogen plants by enabling the use of imported low-carbon ammonia as feedstock. A*Star will mainly provide expertise in safety, standards, cost and sustainability assessments, and technology development, while Amogy will supply its ammonia cracking system. Together, they will explore joint R&D on catalysts for cracking ammonia into hydrogen for electricity [...]
