The Hydrogen Stream: NEOM starts recruitment campaign for “world’s largest” green hydrogen plant construction

The green hydrogen plant, which is an equal joint venture between ACWA Power, Air Products and NEOM, will produce up to 600 tonnes of carbon-free fuel daily when fully operational at the end of 2026.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s hydrogen hubs aim to create commercially viable green hydrogen ecosystems through strategic regional “clusters.”

Hydrogen demand is coming from the end users in harder-to-decarbonize sectors, hub association director says.

As hydrogen-powered vehicles continue to evolve, their use will become as niche as that of some current land-, sea-, and air-transportation methods, such as a new agreement that will see helicopters powered by the green fuel used for organ transport.

Hydrogen cars flopped, but fuel cells are finding new life in trucks and boats.

From @theverge: "Mining trucks, cement mixers, and terminal tractors all seem like the perfect use of hydrogen fuel cells. But they run into the same challenges around price and fueling."

Toyota Commits to Hybrids as EV Demand Lessens

While the industry believes that the future of transport is fully electric, Toyota’s approach has a multi-pathway strategy that includes EVs, hybrids, hydrogen fuel cells, and other up-and-coming green technologies. This may make the green transport concept more digestible for those who aren’t too keen on making the switch.

INEOS' Sir Ratcliffe says ”EV demand has dried up” and UK needs to back hydrogen

INEOS founder believes that EV’s are great for city driving and short journeys, but not so great when it comes to long journeys, countryside driving or any heavier than average vehicle.

The Quest to Uncover the Secrets of Gold Hydrogen

In the quest to decarbonize the world, one element gets a lot of hype: hydrogen. “If you burn it, it produces only water, with no impact on the environment,” explains Alberto Vitale Brovarone, a professor in the Department of Biological, Geological, and Environmental Sciences at the University of Bologna in Italy. Hydrogen’s supporters believe it can be a solution for cleaning up everything from transport to agriculture to heavy industry.

But its green credentials only stack up if you can produce it without emitting carbon. And this is why some are getting very excited about geological or “gold” hydrogen, the name given to the element when it forms naturally underground. This can happen as a result of a chemical reaction between water and iron-rich rocks, or by radiolysis, the splitting of water molecules by radiation into hydrogen and oxygen.

The Zero Emission Multiple Unit train, called ZEMU, is the first of its kind in North America, using hybrid hydrogen and battery technology to power the train.

Blueflite leverages AM to produce hydrogen fuel cells for UAVs - thanks to Charles Darwin University’s AFP capabilities.

Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have analyzed which regions of the world could produce hydrogen most cost-effectively in order to build an economy based on this alternative energy carrier rather than fossil-fuel based alternatives.

Now that the Sanlorenzo Group of shipyards will be assuming total ownership of the Nautor Group over the next four years. And the Sanlorenzo Group’s Bluegame brand just delivered its first fully-foiling, all-hydrogen-powered chase boat to the New York Yacht Club American Magic America’s Cup team that’s competing for the right to challenge for the America’s Cup in Barcelona in the coming months.
