The Japanese government has revealed a multi-trillion-yen plan to develop a “Made In Japan” regional aircraft powered by next generation technology ­such as hydrogen. The government plans to partner up with the private sector to jointly invest ¥5trn ($33bn) over ten years to make a narrow-bodied aircraft that can hit the skies by 2035 — and all technology options are on the table, officials told...

The European Commission’s pilot European Hydrogen Bank auction has received 132 bids from 17 European countries, which “far exceeds” the auction’s budget of €800 million ($862m), the EC said Monday.  Launched in October 2022, the European Hydrogen Bank has a total budget of €3 billion to support renewable hydrogen production in Europe. Auction winners will receive a fixed premium of...

Excluding conventional hydrogen in an energy transition context is challenging, but there’s a water-powered engine that has achieved it (at least partially). It sets power records. The car with two hydrogen engines was surprising, but what’s coming next is equally remarkable. In the context of decarbonizing the economy we’re going through, hydrogen has become a resounding protagonist. The...

Turn back the clock six years ago. Only one nation in the world had a hydrogen strategy: Japan. Since then, more than 50 other countries have developed strategies targeting the low-carbon fuel with decarbonization potential, pledging investments of over $300 billion with more than 1,000 projects announced. The bad news is that only 4% of these projects have made it past the final investment decision...

The European Union is betting on green hydrogen to help reach its 2050 net-zero targets while maintaining industrial and economic competitiveness thanks to the fuel's potential to decarbonize hard-to-abate productive sectors of the economy, but significant constraints cast doubt over this strategy's viability. The European Union considers green hydrogen, which is hydrogen produced entirely using...
