Signature Aviation, the world’s largest network of Fixed-Base Operations (FBO), announced on Oct. 19 that it has expanded the availability of Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) to all of its locations in California.http://dlvr.it/SbNFK7

Aside from the event’s size, scale came as a key theme throughout the first day of proceedings, with calls for scaling up across production, storage, infrastructure, and even legislative framework to aid the hydrogen industry. In an opening keynote speech, Christian Maaß, Head of Department for Heating, Hydrogen, and Efficiency, at the German Federal Ministry [...]

Hydrogen-electric propulsion technology can produce 90% less lifecycle emissions than jet fuel-powered turbines, and ZeroAvia predicts its powertrain will result in substantially lower operating costs. ZeroAvia demonstrated the potential for zero-emission flight through flying the world’s largest hydrogen-electric powered aircraft, a Piper Malibu. Engineers leveraged Ansys multiphysics simulations — including structural analysis, fluid dynamics, FSI, electromagnetic, [...]

Conceived by automotive designer Felix Godard, the Hopium Machina Vision displays a notchback silhouette, that is “both athletic and elegant”. The ascending fuselage and the kinetic grille are both optimised for fuel cell system cooling and vehicle aerodynamics. At the front, the light signature is reminiscent of the stratification of the fuel cell stack, and [...]

ICYMI: In South Africa, leading global mining company and Hydrogen Council steering member Anglo American is currently exploring the potential for a hydrogen valley that will cluster several industrial and research initiatives to carry out pilot projects across the complete hydrogen value chain. The post Driving the hydrogen economy in South Africa – [...]

The company will promote its smart construction solutions including hydrogen fuel cell power packs and electric battery packs, hydrogen and electric excavators, wheel loaders and dump trucks. Demand for eco-friendly and compact products has been “steadily increasing” in developed markets such as Europe and North America, particularly as more attention is focused on carbon emissions [...]

Under a joint development agreement (JDA), they will advance studies into two potential projects: the Saldanha green hydrogen and derivatives study which will explore the region’s potential as an export hub for green hydrogen and derivatives, as well as green steel production; and the Vaal carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) study to use renewable electricity [...]

This interview by James Burgess was first published in S&P Global Commodity Insights. Policy headwinds facing low-carbon and renewable hydrogen projects in Europe will be temporary, with projects poised for swift deployment once there is regulatory certainty, the Hydrogen Council told S&P Global Commodity Insights. Ahead of the Oct. 5 publication of a report on [...]

This interview by Rob Cockerill was first published in H2 View. The momentum in hydrogen investments and deployment has been building for many years and has rapidly accelerated since 2020, but we’re now seeing the bigger picture in hydrogen unveiled and the direction of the task ahead. Connecting the dots in infrastructure, renewable energy hubs [...]

Using Intelligent Energy’s IE-SOAR™ 2.4kW on a Harris Aerial H6 airframe, the company was able to compare fuel cells with ICE hybrid technology. Reginald Wycoff, Shell Pipeline Aviation Manager, said it marks an important step in the future of commercial aerial surveillance and SOAR fuel cell powered aircraft offer high performance with low noise and zero emissions.
