Uniper says it has launched its Hydrogen Pilot Cavern (HPC) Krummhörn plant in Germany with almost 500,000 cubic meters of green hydrogen storage, while Air Liquide has opened a 20 MW electrolysis plant in Oberhausen, Germany.
Hygreen and Andalusian based Coxabengoa have signed a strategic agreement to collaborate on the advancement of hydrogen technology, market expansion for electrolyzer solutions in Europe and expansion of production capacity. “This agreement enables Hygreen Energy to rapidly grow its industrial capabilities within the European market while repositioning itself for the global market grow, while broadening its commercial reach and expanding its innovation in hydrogen technologies,” said Hygreen, a Beijing-based manufacturer of PEM electrolysers and alkaline electrolysers, with a production capacity of 2 GW.
Always fuel has revealed that Faro BidCo, an indirect subsidiary of Swiss Life Asset Management’s infrastructure investment funds, will launch an unregulated voluntary takeover bid to acquire all its shares. Denmark-based Everfuel said the offer will be NOK 13 ($1.23) per share, valuing the company’s total issued share capital at approximately NOK 1.12 billion.
Uniper has opened the Hydrogen Pilot Cavern (HPC) Krummhörn demonstration plant in Germany, with a storage volume of almost 500,000 standard cubic meters of green hydrogen. It said that injection surface equipment is now in place, with a gas tightness test scheduled for September 24, 2024, to begin trial operations. “Essential experience is possible now are collected Here this could pave the way for large-scale and commercial hydrogen storage,” says Olaf Lies, Minister of Economic Affairs of the German state of Lower Saxony.
Air liquid has inaugurated a 20 MW electrolysis plant in Oberhausen, Germany. It claims it is the country’s largest carbon-neutral hydrogen production facility, with an annual capacity of up to 2,900 tonnes. It said The plant is connected to the existing hydrogen pipeline and supplies renewable hydrogen to important industries and emission-free mobility applications in the Rhine and Ruhr area. Siemens Energy co-produced the stacks.
The US Department of Energy said it will provide $8.8 million for 11 university projects aimed at improving hydrogen-powered turbines. It noted that the projects will focus on developing advanced materials and components that can withstand the extreme conditions of hydrogen combustion, allowing gas turbines to use up to 100% clean hydrogen for low-carbon energy generation.
