But the original scope of the project could still change, TechCrunch has learned. The company had been seeking nearly $100 million from the Charging and...
TOKYO -- Japan plans to spend 3 trillion yen ($20.3 billion) over the next 15 years to subsidize the production of cleaner hydrogen, aiming to boost cooperation with the private sector to develop a domestic supply chain for the energy source.Hydrogen fuel, which emits only water as a byproduct, is regarded as a next-generation energy source as nations pursue decarbonization. But the cost of hydrogen,...
To meet the global target for clean hydrogen of 10-15% of energy use by 2050 we need to produce 40m tonnes by 2030. The rich OECD countries simply do not have the renewables resources to do it alone. So there must be a global effort to actively support hydrogen production in Emerging Markets and Developing Countries (EMDCs), explain Carolina Lopez Rocha and Dolf Gielen at the World Bank Group and Ignacio...

These subsidies are part of the administration’s...
Germany is becoming the first Member State to participate in the EU’s Auctions-as-a-Service scheme under the European Hydrogen Bank. Through participating in the European Hydrogen Bank, Germany is set to make €350m available from its national budget for hydrogen production in the country. This investment is on top of the €800m already foreseen for European projects from the EU Innovation...
The “hourly matching” rule will force hydrogen producers to either cease production when renewables are not available – an option that would undermine productivity and viability – or sign up for excess renewable power from diverse sources to improve the chances of having clean energy available from at least one source at all times.Fortescue has urged the government to instead consider “annual...
The hydrogen industry will be at risk if only legislation that focuses on 100% green hydrogen is signed into law and rolled out globally.That was a strong message from Linde and TOMCO at the GAWDA Spring Management Conference this morning in San Antonio, Texas.According to the educational session hosts, Scott Rummans and Jeff Holyoak, there was over $220bn federal spending on clean energy initiatives...
