German Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck visited Norway to discuss cooperation in making the economy more climate-friendly. He hopes that Norway can be Germany’s most important energy supplier, and that they will work together to import hydrogen from Norway to Germany and export carbon dioxide from Germany to Norway for underground storage. This plan …
Der deutsche Umweltminister Robert Habeck ist nach Norwegen gereist, um über die Möglichkeit zu sprechen, Wasserstoff von Norwegen nach Deutschland zu transportieren. Er diskutierte auch über die umstrittene Technik der Gewinnung von „blauem“ Wasserstoff und eine mögliche Implementierung der CCS-Technologie in der Nordsee. Diese Debatte könnte in naher Zukunft Fahrt aufnehmen. In Kürze lässt sich …
Robert Habeck, German Minister of Energy and Environment, is currently in Norway to discuss the potential for renewable energy sources. The two countries are exploring the possibility of transporting hydrogen from Norway to Germany beginning in 2030. This „blue“ hydrogen production is controversial, with some arguing that it would be better to use carbon capture …
A new study suggests that under certain conditions, hydrogen could become a real climate killer. The reaction of hydrogen with oxygen produces water which can alter the composition of the atmosphere and increase ozone levels. If left unchecked, this could have a 33x greater climate impact than carbon dioxide in 20 years. To ensure this …
This article discusses a project led by the University of Duisburg-Essen (UDE) that is researching how to use hydrogen as an alternative fuel in internal combustion engines. The project aims to optimize the burning process and predict irregular combustion processes and fluctuations, so that hydrogen motors can be made more efficient and reliable. The project …
Günther Bräunig, the former head of KfW, has decided to forgo a second career in banking and instead join a hydrogen company called TES as an advisor. He is using this opportunity to gain knowledge about green energy and has been studying the topic intensively over the past six months. He was recently photographed at …
The HYFLEXPROWER consortium have successfully achieved the first stage of their research project on renewable energy, which was funded by the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation. This stage saw Smurfit Kappa’s Saillat paper mill converting renewables into hydrogen to power an industrial turbine. The turbine was trialed with a mix of 30% …
Nel has just secured an enormous order from the German green hydrogen developer, HH2E, for a 120MW electrolyser that will be used on a project in Lubmin. The estimated value of the order is more than €30 million, however, it will only be finalised once both companies have signed a final purchase contract following completion …
H2Carrier and Greenland-based company Anori have formed a partnership to embark on an ambitious project that will create the world’s first commercial wind farm in Greenland. With this 1.5GW renewable energy source, the P2XFloater floating production vessel will be able to produce and export green ammonia. The vessel is the result of close cooperation between …
Renewable energy developer Enertrag has picked Elogen, a French firm, to provide them with a 10MW PEM electrolyser for their green hydrogen project in Magdeburg, Germany. This system will be able to generate up to four tons of hydrogen every day and is expected to be ready by 2024. It will use renewable energy for …
