President Joe Biden’s plan to build a “clean” hydrogen industry is raising concerns about a lack of regulations for transporting the fuel, a gap that could hinder the administration’s efforts to cut emissions. To deliver millions of metric tons of hydrogen from production facilities to buyers, the industry will need trucks, existing natural gas infrastructure and new pipelines. But trucks...

The world continues to search for an energy source that many have called “miraculous” (and we are not referring to the grave mistake of nuclear power, nor to Iceland’s geothermal energy). In the midst of this race, the United States has “invented” a new color of hydrogen, although it does not seem to have been a good idea. The reason is simple: it could cause a catastrophe, and experts are...
Summary Big team working on liquid hydrogen refueling project called GOLIAT, receiving $11.8m funding over 4 years from the EU. Initiative aims to demonstrate safe and reliable use of liquid hydrogen in airport operations for zero-emission flights by 2050. Hydrogen has high energy potential for aviation and can be used for propulsion or as synthetic fuel, offering a sustainable future for...
