Hydrogen industry pleads for easier path to US tax credits. Some companies planning to use new U.S. tax credits to deploy hydrogen projects urged the Treasury Department this week to ease proposed environmental requirements, warning that they could hinder the nascent industry’s takeoff. Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service hosted hearings this week on the guidance they...
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...
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...
Verdagy will become a supplier in upcoming Shell green hydrogen projects after the oil and gas major technically approved its electrolysers.Technical Feasibility and Technology Development Reviews for Verdagy’s 20MW eDynamic Electrolysis system was carried out by Shell along with a HAZOP (safety) review.The electrolyser is usually used as a building block for 100MW and larger renewable hydrogen...
Japan has announced that it aims to develop a clean-sheet hydrogen-powered airliner. The investment was confirmed by Kazuchika Iwata, Vice Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan on March 27, 2024, who said the Japanese government is supporting the project, which will require an investment of at least 5 trillion yen (approximately US$33 billion). It is expected that the funds will...
Hydrogen Power Generators – World first: Genpower parallelizes three EODev GEH2® generators. Undertaken in the Netherlands for the first time ever, three 110kVA GEH2® hydrogen power generators were set up in parallel by EODev’s distributor Genpower to supply up to 265 kVA of zero-emission electricity continuously and recharge all the electric equipment installed on an...
