H2 Energy Group

The facility, located in Gurgaon, serves as EIL’s hub for testing and developing new energy technologies. The company wants to build its domestic electrolyser capacity and reduce reliance on imports. Greenzo Energy said India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission, targeting five million tonnes of annual output by 2030, will hinge on building strong domestic manufacturing and R&D capacity. Under a letter of intent, Greenzo plans to deliver “cutting-edge indigenous solutions in hydrogen electrolysers that are both scalable and globally competitive,” according to Sandeep Agarwal, the firm’s Managing Director. Agarwal added, “[This project] is about building a sustainable future for India, reducing [...]

H2 View understands that state-backed Suryam International will supply the Chennai plant with green ammonia at ₹50/kg ($0.57/kg), or roughly $575 per tonne. The final bid sits joint lowest overall, tied with Acme’s record ₹49.75/kg ($0/57.kg) bid. The volume is also the lowest-capacity award of all the auctions. Among the three results before Madras Fertilisers’ win, Acme Cleantech secured Indorama’s Haldia plant at ₹64.74/kg ($0.74/kg) and Paradeep Phosphates’ Goa plant at ₹62.84/kg ($0.72/kg), while Mangalore Chemicals & Fertilisers received 15,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) at ₹57.65/kg ($0.66/kg). The auctions were conducted as part of India’s first green ammonia tender under [...]

In a letter sent to EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Mercedes-Benz, Schaeffler, and the heads of industry groups ACEA and CLEPA warned that current vehicle CO₂ targets, including a 100% cut for cars by 2035, are no longer feasible. Instead of only pushing battery-electric vehicles (BEVs), they’re asking the EU to leave room for hydrogen-powered vehicles, plug-in hybrids and range extenders, highly efficient combustion engines, and e-fuels or biofuels. The letter, signed by Mercedes-Benz CEO and ACEA President, Ola Källenius, and Schaeffler executive and CLEPA President, Matthias Zink, argued that Europe is disadvantaged by reliance on Asian batteries, [...]

This first section links Maasvlakte 2, set to host Shell’s Holland Hydrogen I production project, with Pernis and the wider port, positioning Rotterdam as a European energy gateway connected to Germany, Belgium, and the rest of the Netherlands. The state-owned Dutch gas infrastructure company highlighted the engineering challenge it had to overcome. “The route had to navigate a dense landscape of roads, railways, waterways and hundreds of existing pipes and cables.” Gasunie said that coordinating this, especially with the parallel construction of the Porthos CO2 pipeline, was a major logistical feat. For 14km, the two pipelines are only 40cm apart. [...]

The Lancaster-based public authority, established to coordinate California’s hydrogen industry, has flagged logistics as a key barrier to adoption. With the RFP, FPH2 aims to standardise and scale hydrogen delivery through a public-led procurement model, rather than leaving logistics solely to private companies. It calls for transport solutions such as liquid tankers and tube trailers, with successful bidders potentially able to secure contracts, revenue streams, and preferred partner status. Vendors can submit proposals via PlanetBids by September 12, 2025, with bids evaluated on technical capability, cost-effectiveness, and long-term value, covering both liquid and gaseous transport services. The move from the [...]

Transition Industries is designing a hydrogen-based, low-carbon methanol production facility in Sinaloa, which is expected to produce around 2.2 million tonnes of green methanol per year. Siemens Energy’s Elyzer P-300 electrolyser has been confirmed as the backbone of the hydrogen production plant, featuring an estimated production capacity of approximately 4,000kg of hydrogen per hour. Cost certainty has been built into the FEED agreement, which sets an initial binding not-to-exceed lump sum firm price, followed by a final lump sum turnkey firm price for the full engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract – giving Transition Industries more predictable project costs and [...]

The 52km pipeline network between Vlieghuis in the Netherlands and Ochtrup in Germany will form part of the wider Northwest European hydrogen backbone to connect production centres and import terminals with industrial regions. It will connect the 9,000km German hydrogen core network with the Dutch province of Zeeland, and the ports of Amsterdam, Eemshaven, and Rotterdam. Work commenced at a midpoint in the network near the border in Hoogstede, with plans to have the system ready to handle 100% hydrogen by 2027. Pipeline conversion requires modifications, including valve and compressor component replacements, and contaminant removal. However, some warn that re-purposing [...]

Hydrogen offtake agreements are drawing heavily from the long-term gas and LNG contracts that shaped global energy trade, but they’re being adapted to avoid previous pitfalls. New research from the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies has highlighted that while LNG sale and purchase agreements (SPAs) lock offtakers into 20–30-year terms and costly arbitration battles over price reviews, hydrogen SPAs are expected to be shorter, more flexible and shaped by subsidy and certification regimes.

Aldar is the first developer in the MENA region to incorporate hydrogen-based steel rebar into a construction project. In Sustainable City, Yas Island, the company is building the first Net Zero carbon mosque. The use of green steel is central to the mosque’s bid for LEED Zero Carbon certification, a first for Abu Dhabi, which Emsteel said would set a new benchmark in sustainable architecture. “This landmark delivery reinforces Emsteel’s commitment to driving industrial sustainability and accelerating the UAE’s transition to a low-carbon economy,” explained Saeed Ghumran Al Remeithi, Group CEO at Emsteel. While it’s not clear how much was [...]

Most of the hydrogen has been used to produce over 1.15 Gwh of clean electricity via a hydrogen gas engine, helping to abate 515 tonnes of carbon dioxide. The project is the first of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa to use solar power to produce hydrogen. It was implemented by DEWA, in collaboration with Expo 2020 Dubai and Siemens Energy, at the outdoor testing facilities of the R&D Centre at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park. The pilot plant has been designed to accommodate future applications and test platforms for the different uses of [...]
