This feels like a crunch point. The overly ambitious hype is gone, frameworks are forming, but the European clean hydrogen market still struggles. And just how long it can sustain this struggle is not clear. These challenges are not exclusive to hydrogen. The calls for local content requirements and phase-in periods could be applied to [...]

The remaining nine GenEco electrolyser modules are due before the plant’s completion in the first half of next year. Once operational, the 100MW facility is expected to cut the refinery’s emissions by around 110,000 tonnes per year. “Half of all grey hydrogen demand sits today in refineries and chemical plants,” explained Ronald Doesburg, Galp’s Executive [...]

Those were among the key talking points during the opening day of the World Power-to-X summit in Marrakech. Morocco’s strategy strongly advocates a collaborative approach. Masen, the Moroccan agency for sustainable energy, acts as the primary point of contact for investors, while the ‘Offre Maroc’ (Morocco offer) aims to attract private investors and developers for [...]

They argue that overly rigid rules on additionality, spatial and temporal correlation are stalling projects, causing cancellations, and putting Europe at risk of missing its hydrogen deployment targets while global competitors surge ahead. EU rules for renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO) require electrolyser operators, from 2028, to use new renewable assets in the same [...]

Advocating natural gas at the outset of a green hydrogen and renewables-oriented two-day summit may have seemed an unlikely topic to greet many of the 2,000 delegates in the Palais de Congress auditorium. But Dr. Leila Benali’s comments signalled a focus on pragmatism in maintaining hydrogen’s momentum amid challenging market conditions. “We cannot talk seriously [...]

H2 View understands that the Haru Oni e-fuels facility in Chile’s Magallanes region is the world’s first operating e-fuels plant. It combines a Silyzer 200 electrolyser, a Siemens Gamesa 3.4MW wind turbine powering the electrolysis process, and Methanol-to-Gasoline technology. The RFNBO certificate was issued by the German body ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) and [...]

Developers bidding for European Hydrogen Bank (EHB) support will face tougher requirements in the upcoming third auction, as the Commission moves to curb project dropouts. After projects selected for subsidies in the first two EHB auctions dropped out, Alexandre Paquot, Director of Innovation for Clean Growth and Low Carbon Economy – DG CLIMA, European Commission, [...]

The company reported over 370 hydrogen deliveries in France, Germany and Sweden – double the number from H1 2024, representing 22MW of installed capacity across its sites. Backed by a €65m ($70m) cash position and a 9.3 GW project pipeline, Lhyfe expects its full-year 2025 revenue to double in comparison to €10m ($10.8m) in 2024. [...]

Electric Hydrogen’s first 100MW electrolyser plant is set to begin producing hydrogen at Infinium’s large-scale e-fuels plant in Texas in December 2025. In a showcase session at European Hydrogen Week, Electric Hydrogen’s Senior Vice-President, Global Commercial, Jason Mortimer, said the plant was nearing mechanical completion ahead of passivation next month. The installation at Infinium’s Project [...]
