Zeroavia says it will build a hydrogen-electrical powertrain factory in Scotland to produce proton exchange membrane (HTPEM) fuel cell systems with high temperature, while Thyssenkrupp Nucera and Fraunhofer Ikt’s have opened the first permanent oxide-electrolyse cell (sooc) pilot plant.
Zeroavia has unveiled plans to build a production facility for hydrogen-electric power lines in the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District Scotland near Glasgow Airport, as a supplement to its existing propulsion center in the US state of Washington. The British-American hydrogen-electric aircraft developer said The hydrogen center of excellence will support the production and testing of powertrain and serve as the most important location for the production of advanced altitude temperature proton exchange membrane (HTPEM) fuel pile stacking and related systems. Zeroavia added that it has protected nearly 3,000 pre-orders for engines and components, which represents more than $ 10 billion in potential future income.
ThyssenKrupp Nucera has opened the first pilot production factory for stacks with fixed oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) for electrolysis at high temperature in Arnstadt, Germany, in collaboration with Fraunhofer Ikts. ThyssenKrupp Nucera said It will collaborate with Fraunhofer IKTs to scale SOEC technology for industrial green hydrogen production, based on earlier development work by the Research Institute. The pilot factory will initially produce SOEC stacks in small volumes, with a production capacity goal of 8 MW per year.
HDF -Energy has signed an agreement with Southern Power Corp. (EVNSPC), a subsidiary of Vietnam Electricity (EVN), to jointly explore the development of green hydrogen power projects on remote islands in southern Vietnam. The French hydrogen company said that the partnership relates to technical and feasibility studies, site -identification, coordination with local authorities and coordination of investment and engineering teams. It also includes knowledge exchange on hydrogen technologies and applications. HDF proposes a system that combines solar parks with green hydrogen storage to deliver electricity 24/7.
Lut University has completed three new laboratories to study power-to-x technologies on the Lappeenranta campus in Finland. The laboratories will relate to the recovery of carbon dioxide and the production of hydrogen and synthetic fuels. “Our experimental research supports the development of P2X business and process efficiency extensively” said Pertti Kaurans, professor of energy storage at Lut University. “We work together with Finnish and international manufacturers of components, and we also test the prototypes of our partner companies.”
The port of Rotterdam has agreed To jointly develop a liquid hydrogen infrastructure for the maritime sector with rand navigation, and a land reservation agreement has signed with HYCC for a factory in the first hydrogen conversion park on the Maasvlakte. The harbor said It has also signed an agreement with AM Green Group, a green ammonia producer, to strengthen the production and distribution chain for green fuels and chemicals, including bunker fuel and sustainable aerial fuel, between India, the Netherlands and Germany via Rotterdam.
Juno Joule Green Energy has agreed to develop a $ 1.3 billion export-oriented green hydrogen and ammonia facility in Andhra Pradesh with selected energy. The Indian renewable energy company said it will build the factory near Mulapeta port on the east coast of the country. The project will continue in three phases and by 2029 will be aimed at the annual production of 180 kilotons of green hydrogen.
