Plug Power said it had suspended all work on projects supported by a $1.66bn US Department of Energy (DOE) loan guarantee during its Q3 results, signalling a step back from its capital-intensive hydrogen production build-out. The loan guarantee, secured in the final days of the Biden administration, was set to allow Plug to build up [...]

Six European hydrogen refuelling operators, including Hydri, Teal Mobility, Fountain Fuel, H2 Mobility, Virya Energy, and HYmpulsion, have formed the Hydrogen Infrastructure Alliance (H2IA). The alliance argued that infrastructure development must lead to give truck and van manufacturers the confidence to scale up production. However, the H2IA’s statement added, “Larger volumes of vehicles and a [...]

Shell has signed two PPAs for more than 280MW of renewable electricity to supply its 100MW green hydrogen refinery project in Germany, but it is unclear whether the project will meet the EU’s strict eligibility rules. The oil and gas major will offtake around 110MW from Northland Power and RWE’s Nordsee One joint venture’s 332MW [...]

Hydrogen is expected to become a major platinum customer just as the global PGM system is expected to enter a structural deficit – yet the real constraint isn’t platinum itself. That’s according to Ed Sterck, Director of Research at the World Platinum Investment Council (WPIC), who spoke to H2 View as the organisation released its [...]

The IDB Invest package comprises senior debt, blended finance, and a letter-of-credit-backed reserve facility. The funding will form a critical part of the $630m Villeta project, which will use green hydrogen to produce around 260,000 tonnes of green calcium ammonium nitrate per year. Fertiliser major Yara has already agreed to offtake the plant’s total output [...]

Located at West Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill in Richmond, Raven will process up to 99 tonnes of waste per day through its steam reforming technology, which would also help California avoid up to 7,200 tonnes per year of landfill CO2 emissions. The US-based energy firm will now complete final engineering revisions required by the permit [...]

The off-grid generator uses green hydrogen in a third-party fuel cell to generate power, which is stored in a sodium battery to provide electricity when needed. Developed by Sky engineers, the unit is now on trial at its Elstree studios near London to assess its potential as it looks to clean up TV production. It [...]

Due to the contractually guaranteed purchase volumes agreed by hylane, customers are offered reduced prices for green hydrogen at facilities in Düsseldorf and Rhine-Neckar. H2 Mobility can supply fuel at €8/kg because the stations involved in the deal are large, high-utilisation sites located along major freight corridors; its Düsseldorf station has a capacity of up [...]

Europe’s current carbon pricing policy instruments are not sufficient to scale clean hydrogen, a new report has warned, highlighting the need for uptake quotas in key markets. The PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) study, commissioned by lobby group Hydrogen Europe, argued without new lead market laws, Europe risks missing its climate goals and undermining industrial competitiveness. It estimates [...]

The Nordic start-up has launched or announced multiple alkaline electrolyser modules since its establishment. In 2024, it unveiled its 25kW module and stated its intention to develop larger designs exceeding 250kW. Anders Johansson, the company’s CEO, said the agreement with Uniper is a “strong endorsement” of Hymeth’s Hyaeon technology. Uniper is expected to install the [...]
