This new mechanism, established under the recently adopted decarbonised gases and hydrogen package, is set to facilitate...

China will breeze past its 2025 target for 200,000 tonnes of renewable hydrogen a year, as the country is on track to install 2.5GW of electrolyser capacity — capable of producing around 220,000 tonnes of H2 a year — by the end of 2024. So says analysis released this week by research firm Rystad Energy.  It finds that 1GW of electrolysis capacity has already been installed in...

TotalEnergies and Air Products have signed a 15-year agreement for the supply of 70 000 tpy of green hydrogen in Europe starting in 2030. This first long-term deal follows TotalEnergies’ call for tenders for the supply of 500 000 tpy of green hydrogen to decarbonise TotalEnergies’ European refineries. Under the...

Retail made up the largest investment, with $31 billion in sales of zero-emissions vehicles, solar and storage, and heat pumps registered in the quarter. Deployment of clean energy and industrial decarbonization was the second-largest segment, with $24 billion in investment in Q1, driven largely by utility-scale solar and storage deployments. The fastest-growing slice of the segment came from emerging...

It is currently mostly used in oil refineries to lower the...

We have all become used to talking about the various “colours” of “low carbon hydrogen”. When we talk about “blue” or “green” hydrogen, we know we are referring to something whose production is meant to result in fewer greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than producing standard “grey” hydrogen by reforming methane and venting the waste CO2. However, if, like the UK government, you are...
