H2-View News: Thermax secures exclusive rights to make HydrogenPro electrolysers in India
Under the new agreement, the Norwegian electrolyser maker will license its alkaline technology to Thermax, supply its current and future stacks, and provide technical support. Thermax will have exclusive rights in India to supply, install, commission, and service HydrogenPro-based technology, with plans to get started right away. As part of the technology transfer, Thermax will build and design system components in India, which will be integrated with the HydrogenPro stack. The duo will also look to develop joint systems for future demand. The partnership’s first step will be establishing a state-of-the-art short-stack test station at Thermax’s Pune facility. The agreement [...]
H2-View News: Hyundai launches 960km-range hydrogen fuel cell bus
The new Universe hydrogen-electric bus includes an integrated dual motor and transmission system and provides a maximum power output of 350kW. The fuel cell system delivers up to 180 kW, and when paired with a 48.2 kWh lithium-ion battery, extends the vehicle’s range beyond the previous model’s 450–500 km per charge. The bus is equipped with an automatic system that cuts off the hydrogen supply and high-voltage battery in the event of a collision, along with a fire delay system that slows the spread of flames from the battery enclosure by at least five minutes. The 2026 Universe hydrogen-electric bus [...]
H2-View News: Pure Hydrogen lands AUD $3m order for hydrogen-powered heavy vehicles
The company confirmed it has entered into a sales agreement with New South Wales-based transport company, Scott Lovatt Transport, for the delivery of two TS70-400 Taurus prime mover trucks for over AUD $2m ($1.3m). However, the sale isn’t final yet, and the deal will only go ahead if government funding can be secured for the project. The parties are “confident” they can obtain access to the relevant funding once the application has been submitted. Additionally, Pure Hydrogen secured a follow-up purchase order from Heidelberg Materials Australia for the supply of a second hydrogen fuel cell 8×4 agitator rigid truck. Featuring [...]
H2-View News: SunHydrogen demonstrates off-grid, commercial-scale solar hydrogen system
Operating for the first time under real-world conditions, the company’s module combines light-harvesting and electrolysis functions into a single unit, rather than using separate photovoltaic panels and an electrolyser. The demonstration took place in an open prototype housing facility, likely near SunHydrogen’s base in Coralville, Iowa, though the company did not confirm the exact location. The demonstration proved that sunlight and water can progress beyond the laboratory to become a “commercially viable clean energy solution,” according to Syed Mubeen, Ph.D, Chief Technology Officer at SunHydrogen. “This successful demonstration of the commercial-size reactor underscores the progress we’ve made in bringing our [...]
H2-View News: Cost cuts lift Plug Power’s margins as Q2 electrolyser revenues treble
Plug Power trebled its electrolyser revenues in Q2 while improving its gross margin by almost 60 points thanks to major cost reductions. The US hydrogen firm logged $174m in total revenues, up 21% year-on-year, with its electrolyser business contributing around $45m.

H2-View News: Subsidies ‘rarely’ the deciding factor in hydrogen bankability: Ryze Power
Subsidies alone won’t unlock clean hydrogen projects. Guaranteed offtake, market alignment, and infrastructure all need to come together. That was the message from H2 View’s latest exclusive webinar, which heard Ryze Power’s Head of Policy and Strategic Projects, Dr Lee Roberts, tell viewers the mindset was changing on project development.

H2-View News: Vattenfall and CIP delay and scale back 1GW Dutch hydrogen project
The project’s onshore hydrogen plant will now be at least 500MW, down from 1GW, and its offshore solar commitment reduced to 6MW The IJmuiden Ver Beta offshore wind farm, which will supply power to the project, will also now be built in two phases: 1GW coming online in 2029 and the remaining 1GW in 2032, after the delayed Delta Rhine Corridor (DRC) hydrogen pipeline is completed. Zeevonk, the joint venture developing the project, said the original plans are no longer financially or economically viable under the current permit because of the DRC delay, which was originally slated for commissioning in [...]
H2-View News: PowerChina starts trial operations at 20MW green hydrogen facility in Uzbekistan
Located at the Maxam chemical plant in Uzbekistan’s capital, the facility uses four alkaline electrolyser units with a combined capacity of 20MW, together producing around 3,150 tonnes of hydrogen per year. Representing PowerChina’s first overseas green hydrogen venture, the production plant is replacing grey hydrogen currently used at the Maxam site, cutting around 30,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. “The project represents a key milestone in advancing green, low-carbon energy transformation across central Asia and beyond,” PowerChina said in a statement. The initiative also reflects China’s growing global hydrogen ambitions. In May 2024, the Hydrogen Council reported that the country [...]
H2-View News: Hyroad acquires Nikola’s hydrogen trucks, stations, and IP after bankruptcy
US hydrogen refuelling firm has acquired over 100 fuel trucks, parts, software, and IP from the bankrupt zero-emission truck maker Nikola. The Texan firm said the acquisition included 113 Tre hydrogen fuel cell trucks, which will be deployed primarily in California, where it is developing its first hydrogen refuelling stations.

H2-View News: Hynfra leads Polish–Japanese SOEC project to deliver green ammonia
Starting in early 2026, the demonstrator will produce high-efficiency green hydrogen for low-carbon ammonia synthesis, using waste heat from the Haber–Bosch process to power the SOEC in a closed-loop system. Hynfra CEO Tomoho Umeda said operating at 700–900°C enables the capture and reuse of heat from ammonia synthesis, delivering high efficiencies. Under the MOU, the partners also plan to build a larger SOEC-based, megawatt-scale hydrogen facility to supply green hydrogen to industrial chemical and fertiliser plants worldwide. Umeda said, “This is a decisive step toward making green hydrogen a practical, scalable solution for the chemical and fertiliser industries, while keeping [...]
