The Burnaby plant, just outside of Vancouver, will produce hydrogen through electrolysis, using the BC electric grid, which is primarily composed of hydroelectric power. HTEC says the one-tonne-per-day installation will produce hydrogen with a carbon intensity of less than 18g CO2e/MJ. In addition to the electrolyser, the site hosts a 0.8-tonne liquefier, which will use industrial by-product hydrogen to ensure a steady supply. The project secured over CAD $50m ($35.8m) in public funding, and will form part of the company’s H2 Gateway programme, which aims to build up demand and supply for hydrogen in transportation. “This facility marks a major [...]

H2 View understands that guarantees of origin are the only recognised proof that gas has been produced from renewable energy sources, without which producers cannot sell or market it as renewable. The certification marked a step in building a transparent and traceable hydrogen market in Finland, according to Heli Haapea, Service Manager at Gasgrid. “There is demand for guarantees of origin because renewable gases play a significant role in achieving Finland’s and Europe’s carbon neutrality goals,” Haapea said. “With guarantees of origin, we are building a sustainable and reliable foundation for the use of all clean gases.” While renewable fuels [...]

Under a new framework agreement, the Chinese technology firm aims to boost hydrogen output and improve the energy efficiency of its Hydolyser electrolyser platform, while simultaneously reducing overall production costs. Developed using nanostructured coatings, the electrodes are reportedly designed to double hydrogen output and cut energy consumption by up to 20% compared with conventional technologies. SunGreen said this is a “critical factor” as electricity accounts for 60-70% of the levelised cost of hydrogen (LCOH) production. H2 View understands the technology is also free of platinum group metals (PGMs), reducing reliance on critical minerals that are expected to become increasingly scarce [...]

The HyConstruct initiative will use AI and advanced control systems to make dual-fuel engines use more hydrogen and less diesel. “This will enable hydrogen consumption to be boosted to a level where the scale of use on site further improves the business case for wholesale plant upgrades and be competitive with diesel supply costs,” UlemCo said in a statement. Using GeoPura hydrogen power units (HPU) to provide clean fuel and off-grid refuelling, the project partners will test Kobelco excavators, which were converted to hydrogen in an earlier project, and a heavy-duty articulated dump truck. “Converting existing equipment to run on [...]

On Thursday (23 October), the Delegated Act (DA) on low-carbon hydrogen passed the Parliament Plenary, accompanied by assurances from energy Commissioner Dan Jørgensen. These included confirmation of grandfathering provisions, meaning projects coming online early will not face stricter rules in the near term, a commitment to technological neutrality, and a new methodology to allow nuclear and renewable power purchase agreements to be used for hydrogen production. The Commission adopted the rules in July.  They require producers to deliver hydrogen with at least 70% fewer emissions than fossil fuels to be designated as low-carbon. The DA lays out a methodology for [...]

Under Japan’s Zero-Emission Accelerating Ship Finance programme, Uyeno will be supported by the Development Bank of Japan (DBJ) and ship classification society ClassNK. Built by Fukuoka Shipbuilding, the Kikou Maru will be the first coastal vessel financed through the programme. Currently, it runs on electric propulsion but has been designed so that hydrogen fuel systems can be added. In 2026, Uyeno plans to conduct the first demonstration voyages powered by hydrogen, which will be supported by the Nippon Foundation’s Zero Emission Ships project. The vessel was awarded an “S rating” from ClassNK for the hydrogen-ready design and integration of battery [...]

The delivery marked the first time the Malaysian state-owned energy firm transported hydrogen by sea using metal hydride storage technology, rather than in a gas or liquid form. Hydrexia provided its MHX container, which stores hydrogen in magnesium-based metal hydrides. “[This] mitigates risks associated with hydrogen logistics, and reduces operational costs,” according to the firm’s statement. Hydrexia added that the demonstration with SEDC means its technology can now be commercially deployed and used to transport hydrogen regionally in Asia. “The shipment clearly demonstrates our ability to expand business to new regional markets and monetise our MHX,” Alex Fang, Hydrexia CEO [...]

The Kawasaki Plant currently uses two 73.5MW petroleum coke and city gas power generation units for the production of chemicals like ammonia, hypochlorite, and chloroprene rubber. However, one of the units is set to be replaced with a 30–40MW natural gas and hydrogen co-firing turbine to cut the site’s emissions by up to 254,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide. Expected to be operational in Q1 2030, the new unit will generate up to 210GWh annually, covering around 40% of the site’s power consumption. Resonac has said a portion of the output will be supplied to its semiconductor materials facilities in the [...]

Ballard Power Systems says its strategy remains unchanged following the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) decision to axe 223 clean energy projects worth a combined $7.5bn across its grant programmes. While the October 2 announcement did not confirm which projects would be affected, Ballard confirmed to H2 View that it does not expect DOE support for the proposed 3GW hydrogen fuel cell plant in Rockwall, Texas.
