South Korean Apartment Complex Runs Exclusively on Hydrogen Fuel Cells

Photo: Yuldong-With-U The Yuldong-With-U complex in Ulsan, South Korea, has achieved a significant milestone as the world’s first apartment block to derive all its heat and power from hydrogen fuel cells. The complex accommodates 437 households and features multiple fuel cell generators supplied with hydrogen from a nearby refinery via a pipeline. Three container-sized fuel cells installed on the...

What They Are, How They Work, and Why They’re Important

Fuel cells are not some novel new technology. In fact, most history books credit the invention of the fuel cell to Welsh chemist and physicist William Grove, who, in the late 1830s and early 1840s, conducted experiments proving that electric current could be produced from an electrochemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen over a platinum catalyst. Yet, fuel cells never really took off as a...

TES and Saibu Gas agree to support Japan’s transition to e-NG | Power

Tree Energy Solutions (TES) and Saibu Gas will promote using electric natural gas from green hydrogen (e-NG) as a clean energy source across Japan.Under a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the two companies have agreed to explore opportunities including a long-term e-NG offtake contract by Saibu gas from TES production projects.Under this contract, CO2 is captured and combined with green hydrogen to...

Do Cars Explode Like In Movies? Electric Vs. Hydrogen Car Crashes – Hydrogen Fuel News

The Future of Car Explosions with Electric and Hydrogen VehiclesCar chase scenes are a Hollywood blockbuster staple. We’re all familiar with high-speed pursuits culminating in spectacular explosions, with cars flying through the air and fires blazing from fuel tanks. These thrilling actions keep us on the edge of our seats, but how much of this is grounded in reality? More importantly, with the rise of...

Chart: Solar and wind overtake fossil fuels on the EU…

Demand is rebounding this year, rising by 0.7 percent over the first six months — and yet fossil fuel generation has continued to fall: Coal generation dropped by 24 percent and gas by 14 percent compared to the same period last year. It’s the first time gas and coal generation have declined in the EU without energy demand also trending downward, the report notes. The EU’s shift toward solar and...

Renewable Hydrogen Hubs Officially Debut Along the West Coast

Photo: Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations The Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy Systems (ARCHES) and the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Association (PNWH2) have officially signed cooperative agreements with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations to secure a first tranche of funding that accelerates the expansion of clean energy infrastructure. These...

Hydrogen in the Energy Transition

Transitioning the world towards cleaner and greener energy is proving to be more challenging than we once all hoped. There are real concerns about what impact the slower speed of uptake is having on our collective ability to control climate change impacts, though the effort continues pushing forward. Indeed, we now have our first operating trains and trucks that run on hydrogen, we are close to very...

He said, “ is in action to high grade and focus our portfolio from 30 opportunities to five to 10 potential...

Generating Hydrogen From Seawater Using Soda Can Aluminum

A groundbreaking discovery has revealed that aluminum from soda cans, when purified and mixed with seawater, can generate hydrogen gas, a clean energy source for engines and fuel cells without carbon emissions. This innovative process is enhanced by the addition of imidazole, a compound found in caffeine from coffee grounds.During experiments, pretreated aluminum pellets were introduced into filtered...
