In Colorado, perovskite materials may hold the potential to play an important role in a process to produce hydrogen in a renewable manner, according to an analysis from scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. The NREL scientists analyzed an emerging water-splitting technology called solar thermochemical hydrogen (STCH) production, which can be potentially more energy […]
In Japan, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. signed a Memorandum of Understanding with California-based Infinium, which has proprietary technology that converts carbon dioxide and hydrogen into ultra-low carbon fuels—known as Electrofuels—for use in today’s planes, ships and truck fleets. The agreement, which builds on MHI’s 2021 investment in Infinium, will focus on exploring the deployment of […]
In Oman, H2-Industries and Public Establishment For Industrial Estates – Madayan signed a memorandum of understanding to develop a waste-to-hydrogen plant in conjunction with PV solar power plants with base-load capacity in the Sultanate of Oman. The facility will initially convert up to one million tons of municipal solid waste each year. The proposed US […]
In Idaho, the development of new, more efficient electrochemical cells could provide a good option for carbon-free hydrogen and chemical production along with large-scale electricity generation and storage and Idaho National Laboratory scientists are overcoming several challenges, including how to make the cells more efficient and cost-effective, by using a simple process to bind materials […]
In Pennsylvania, refining metals, manufacturing fertilizers and powering fuel cells for heavy vehicles are all processes that require purified hydrogen. But purifying, or separating, that hydrogen from a mix of other gases can be difficult, with several steps. A Penn State research team demonstrated that the process can be simplified using a pump outfitted with […]
In Singapore, scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a new method for plastic waste to be converted into hydrogen based on pyrolysis, a high temperature chemical process. Unlike PET plastic bottles which can be recycled easily, plastic litter containing contaminated food packaging, styrofoam and plastic bags, is challenging to recycle and […]
In Japan, a new sustainable and practical method for producing hydrogen from water has been discovered by a team of researchers at the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science (CSRS). Unlike current methods, the new method does not require rare metals that are expensive or in short supply. Instead, hydrogen for fuel cells and agricultural […]
In Texas, Southwest Research Institute upgraded its test equipment to allow for testing the effects of transporting natural gas and hydrogen blends in the same pipeline. The latest capability will help clients research hydrogen-based solutions to understand if infrastructure for climate-warming greenhouse gases can be transitioned to handle more sustainable resources. “Hydrogen is an excellent […]
In Texas, Green Hydrogen International unveiled plans to create the world’s largest green hydrogen production and storage hub in South Texas. Hydrogen City, Texas will be an integrated green hydrogen production, storage, and transport hub growing to 60GW in size and producing over 2.5 billion kilograms of green hydrogen per year. The project is centered […]
In Illinois, the Marquis Industrial Complex announced an 873-acre expansion of the complex located in Hennepin, Illinois. The land acquisition will add to the adjoining 2,500 acres surrounding the Marquis Energy Ethanol Plant and enhance the world-class logistics at the complex by adding a mile of riverfront access, four miles of rail, and direct access […]
