H2 Energy Group

The Canadian firm has signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire the equipment already used by Quebec-based energy and fuels company Harnois Énergies. While precise details on the equipment in question remain unrevealed, Harnois has been producing and dispensing hydrogen at its Quebec City multi-energy station since 2019, featuring a Cummins Hystat alkaline electrolyser. Harnois had also partnered with Alstom and HTEC to supply hydrogen from the station to fuel North America’s first green hydrogen-powered train in 2023. Charbone said it will “repurpose” the equipment to “fast-track” the commissioning of the first phase of its flagship Sorel-Tracy green hydrogen plant [...]

The Erongo proof-of-concept facility targets an annual output of 18 tonnes of green hydrogen and 100 tonnes of green ammonia. The latter is used to produce fertiliser for over 400 tonnes of greenhouse-grown vegetables annually. Namibia and Sub-Saharan Africa face fertiliser shortages and high import costs, with farmers applying only about 15% of the fertiliser needed for healthy yields. The initiative aims to replace costly imports with affordable, locally produced green fertilisers. Backed by the Namibian and German governments, the “Net Zero village” splits borehole water with an electrolyser powered by local renewable power. A solar photovoltaic field has already [...]

The company, which is developing membrane-less electrolysers, will issue almost 148 million new shares – growing its share base by nearly 40% – in a bid to secure funding for its wider ambitions. Despite the heavy dilution, demand was strong. Through an accelerated bookbuild, CPH2 will net around £7m ($9.4m) through the placement of over 140 million new shares at £0.05 ($0.067).  A further £0.4m ($0.54m) will be raised through an oversubscribed retail offer. The new funds give CPH2 the runway to move from pilot testing into full commercial deployment. Earlier this year, CEO Jon Duffy told H2 View CPH2 [...]

The Woodbine plant ran at 97% uptime, 99.7% availability (excluding a grid outage) and 92.8% efficiency, the green hydrogen company reported. The Georgia plant uses its 5MW GenEco electrolysers, which are part of its modular PEM line. Plug said the production record proves the systems can “deliver high-performance backed by real-world results.” The company touted the site as the largest operating green hydrogen plant in the US and claimed market leadership by citing additional facilities in Tennessee and Louisiana, although neither is yet at full capacity. “Our Georgia plant is running with greater consistency and strength every day,” stated Andy [...]

The SM42-6Dn train is powered by two Ballard 85kW fuel cells, paired with battery technology. The locomotive passed preliminary operational testing in Bydgoszcz, Poland, in 2022. It was first operated yesterday (September 3) on the Jelenia Góra to Karpacz route, located near the Czech border. Lower Silesia, which has the most non-electrified railway lines in Poland, is a natural testbed for hydrogen trains to replace diesel on routes where electrification is not viable. “Electrification of railway lines is the task of the government, but we do not rest on our laurels, and we are also looking for modern, ecological solutions [...]

The Project Fast Move study, between Ricardo, Brunel University of London, and the Port of Cromarty Firth, will evaluate the feasibility of four-stroke ammonia-fuelled engines in offshore support vessels (OSVs) to support emissions reduction targets. Part of the Department for Transport-funded UK Shore initiative, the study will assess the use of the hydrogen-based fuel in vessels at the Port of Cromarty Firth in Scotland. It will also look to understand high-pressure dual-fuel ammonia combustion, and develop combustion system concepts that maximise ammonia substitution rates, as well as assess port and vessel safety. The study will run until Spring 2026. OSVs [...]

The 35MW system will produce green hydrogen using hydroelectric power at the site of Linde’s existing grey hydrogen production facility, using existing liquefaction and distribution infrastructure to meet merchant demand. The plant, which was touted to double the industrial gas major’s US green liquid hydrogen production capacity, has been in the works since 2022 and is slated to start up in 2025. Accelera’s General Manager – Electrolysers, Des McMenamim, said the system delivery was a “significant milestone” for the firm. “This project demonstrates our ability to deliver large-scale, reliable solutions that enable our customers to produce green hydrogen on a [...]

Tested by Amazon, Air Products, Holcim, Ineos Inovyn and Wiedmann & Winz, the trucks ran daily logistics routes with ranges beyond 1,000km and refuelling times of just 10–15 minutes. Manufacturer Daimler said the performance matched diesel, minus the emissions. Across the trials, the vehicles consumed between 5.6-8kg of hydrogen per 100km, refuelling 285 times with a total of 15 tonnes of liquid hydrogen at stations in Woerth and Duisburg, Germany. Daimler said the fuel use compares with around 58,000 litres of diesel and 154 tonnes of CO2 for the same distance. “All these practical experiences help us to optimally prepare [...]

The certification confirms that Everfuel’s production volumes meet environmental and traceability criteria under the EU’s Renewable Energy Directives (RED II and RED III). The energy firm can now supply certified hydrogen in Denmark, Germany and northern Europe, putting Everfuel ahead of numerous European peers as demand for certified hydrogen ramps up. From 2026, RFNBO quotas for industry and transport kick in. Under the RFNBO rules, designed to ensure only green electricity is used in production, electrolyser operators must source power from new renewable energy assets located in the same grid region and match operation on an hourly basis from 2028.
