The Ripple Effect of Delays in the UK’s Green Projects on Achieving Net Zero and Environmental ImpactDelays to UK’s green projects not only impact on the feasibility of achieving the UK Government’s goal of net zero by 2050, but have a real world and measurable impact on the environment. Fossil-fuel-intensive megawatts of energy are only displaced as net zero alternatives come on-line, serving to...
Hydrogen Fuel
As the world shifts towards greener energy solutions, the spotlight on hydrogen fuel cells grows brighter. Harnessing the power of hydrogen, these cells present a clean energy alternative capable of meeting the escalating global demand for power. But what are hydrogen fuel cells? In its most basic form, a hydrogen fuel cell is a device that converts the chemical energy stored in...
Bryan Allen, Director of Hydrogen – October 19, 2023 With the growth of the clean energy economy, and a heavy focus on hydrogen, green energy and water resources have sparked concern in local economies. Most concerns focus on the belief that there will be a major increase in water consumption and that there are negative environmental impacts from desalinat ion . For the most part, these fears...
One year ago, New York state passed one of the country’s most ambitious clean energy and climate justice laws. The Build Public Renewables Act authorized the New York Power Authority, a state-owned public power utility, to build and own clean energy projects for the first time. If the state falls short of its ambitious climate goals, the law mandates that NYPA step up to build renewables that will...
On 6 July, the UK government introduced an Energy Bill into Parliament. Also known as the Energy Security Bill (see the government press release and related webpage), it is packed with provisions on an unprecedentedly wide variety of subjects. Some of these have featured in consultations or statements of legislative intent over a number of years; some may come as more of a surprise to many readers;...

The nations of Europe have been throwing many dollars at the green hydrogen industry, seeking a way to cut imports of natural gas from Russia. However, the EU’s 2030 production goal is sliding out of reach and industry stakeholders are complaining that the stuff is just too expensive, even with subsidies....
Japanese firms JERA and IHI Corp. have launched the world’s first large-volume fuel ammonia demonstration testing at JERA’s 1-GW Unit 4 of its 4.1-GW Hekinan Thermal Power Station in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. The demonstration testing, which kicked off on April 1 and is slated to continue through June 2024, involves substituting 20% of Hekinan 4’s heating value with fuel ammonia. The project is...
