That’s certainly true for Jimmy Rojas, who took the first steps toward founding his startup Evoloh three years earlier as a graduate student at Stanford working on hydrogen and energy systems. It continued when he worked at Baruch Future Ventures...

As the United States government rolls out billions of dollars in subsidies to produce hydrogen fuel for use in vehicles, factories, and power plants, a growing body of evidence is undercutting its clean credentials.The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently awarded $7 billion to seven regional hydrogen production hubs, on top of a lucrative tax credit whose rules have become the subject of intense...

Equinor scraps green hydrogen plan for world's largest offshore wind farm  Upstream Online Source link...

Offshore wind farms: a future Eldorado for hydrogen? During the HyPorts conference, Evolen organised a session on hydrogen production at sea from offshore wind energy. This was an opportunity to have insights from Equinor and Lhyfe. This session, facilitated by Philippe Muguerra, head of hydrogen projects at Hynamics (EDF Group), provided an opportunity to talk about the existence of a task...

A novel study from Cornell Engineering investigates how the historically energy-intensive world of cryptocurrency mining might boost renewable energy deployment. The research suggests strategically pairing crypto mining with green hydrogen technology could offer economic benefits and reduce the sector’s carbon footprint. The challenge of crypto’s power consumption With its vast...

As the global power industry pivots toward decarbonization and decentralization, major manufacturers of diesel and gas engines are strategically adapting to change. While large power plants frequently garner the world’s attention, the growing emphasis on decarbonization and decentralization is elevating the role of smaller-scale power generation solutions. Traditionally, diesel and gas engines...

52 projects in 24 states receive Bipartisan Infrastructure funding. The Department of Energy (DOE) invested $750 million into America’s hydrogen energy industry this month, funding 52 projects in 24 states to improve manufacturing and recycling procedures for clean hydrogen systems. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said, “The projects announced today—funded by the President’s...

The Indian government has revised its list of winners for the first auction for electrolyser manufacturing subsidies, originally announced in January, after steelmaker Jindal — which had won incentives for 300MW of annual manufacturing capacity — dropped out of the process. According to anonymous sources cited by local newspaper Mint in early February, Jindal had missed a deadline on 3 February for...

Plans to power green hydrogen production from a fourth phase of the world’s largest offshore wind farm have been scrapped after developers decided to focus solely on feeding electricity grids. The proposed Dogger Bank D project was unveiled a year ago by partners SSE and Equinor, with plans to add up to another 2GW of turbines to the 3.6GW already being built at the giant UK North Sea wind farm....

Pajarito Powder has been selected for $20m in US Department of Energy (DOE) funding to increase production and reduce catalysts and fuel cell costs.As a developer and manufacturer of advanced catalysts in fuel cells and electrolysers, Pajarito Power will work on two projects that will each be backed by $10m from the DOE.Funding of $750m was awarded to 52 clean hydrogen projects across 24 states by the...
