The European Parliament adopted a new set of laws on Thursday (11 April) to transition Europe's gas markets and infrastructure to hydrogen and pave the way for the eventual creation of an independent hydrogen grid development body.

 

A track-ready version of the Alpenglow will turn three laps of the famous circuit ahead of the WEC’s 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps

 

Fuel cells are quickly becoming a viable, clean energy alternative to commonly used fossil fuels, such as gasoline, coal, and oil. Fossil fuels are non-renewable energy resources that release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

 

Bloom Energy Inc. (NYSE:BE), a leading provider of clean energy solutions, was recently awarded up to $75 million in tax credits by the Department of Energy, Department of Treasury, and the Internal Revenue Service under the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project 48C initiative.

 

Germany’s €2.2bn ($2.4bn) plans to decarbonise industry with green hydrogen and electrification have been approved by the European Commission.

 

HysetCo SAS, a startup that rents hydrogen-powered electric vehicles to hundreds of taxi drivers around Paris, raised nearly €200 million ($218 million) to expand its operations beyond the French capital.

JR East aims to commercialize hybrid version from 2030 in decarbonization effort

 

Hydrogen may not be flavor of the month for car makers, either in fuel cell or ICE form. Despite this, one area in which it will almost certainly play a key role in decarbonization is racing. The heat of competition is where AVL, best known for its test benches, measurement devices, simulation tools and a long history of engine development, hopes the engine shown here will come into play.

 

MAN Truck & Bus has launched a limited series of hydrogen combustion-powered trucks for customers in a select number of countries.

 

THE world’s “first Hydrogen-powered meals-on-wheels vehicle” has been undergoing trials with Monmouthshire Council.

It's cheaper than putting a charge point on every parking spot, and far more convenient. It is no more dangerous than a gasoline station.

Far better than continuing using fossil fuels.

Musk has swatted people he disagreed with. He is the antithesis of a free speech absolutist.

You'll be shocked at how little hp you really need, provided there is enough torque. Even the most powerful tractor trailers max out at around 700 hp. And an FCEV can use a battery for auxiliary power.

It is hydrogen-electric.

A lot of this dives deep into wishful thinking territory. We will need to spend trillions of dollars to make a pure renewable energy solution viable. People will find out that nuclear is not magically guaranteed to be more expensive. If it wasn't the case, why are new nuclear reactors still being built and more are being planned?

Germany is definitely rethinking it's anti-nuclear position. Ignore the viewpoints of the current political group in charge. They are deeply unpopular. Politicians outside of that group are advocating for a return to nuclear.

France is keeping and building more reactors. This is not a "more complicated story." It is simple proof that nuclear is viable.

Just so we’re clear, it is cheap fossil fuels that made nuclear uneconomical. Solar and wind provide a very different type of power in comparison, and do not really compete against each other. There’s a reason why countries that abandoned nuclear are suddenly thinking about restarting nuclear again (see Germany). Meanwhile, countries that fully adopted nuclear (see France) are seeing no pressure to abandon it.

It has grown beyond the ability of one person to handle. We want to hope for the best, but must prepare for the worst.
