The Sarawak government is working with Japan’s ENEOS in a joint effort to develop a competitive supply chain for the production of clean hydrogen in the form of Methyl Cyclohexane (MCH). Sarawak’s Prime Minister Tan Sri Abang Johari said the joint development of MCH in the hydrogen supply chain is expected to reduce the cost […]
Hong Kong may be forced to abandon plans to use hydrogen-powered trains on its light rail system because of safety regulations and the need to ‘rebuild’ all platforms, two lawmakers have warned. Citing sources, lawmaker Michael Tien said Sunday that the MTRC’s plans for the 36-kilometre (22-mile) line were in jeopardy, partly because the trains […]
Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA) has deployed Hyundai XCIENT heavy-duty hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks for logistics operations. This was done in partnership with Glovis America. HMGMA is initially operating 21 XCIENT Class 8 trucks in support of Megasite, advancing its commitment to sustainable transport.
By Prof Dato’ Dr Ahmad Ibrahim Hydrogen energy is being touted as a solution to mitigate climate change. Burning hydrogen for energy is a clean energy source. Water produces hydrogen and burning hydrogen produces water. Without energy and water, the world cannot survive. The world’s interest in hydrogen energy has increased dramatically due to its […]
A new solar cell process offers a promising route to green hydrogen production and could be a breakthrough in the field of photocatalytic water decomposition. An international collaboration led by Flinders University and involving researchers from South Australia, the United States and Germany has produced an innovative ‘core-shell Sn(II)-calcite’ oxide material, which, when combined with […]
The DOE Hydrogen Energy Project Plan is a foundational resource for advancing research, development, demonstration, and deployment (RDD&D) of clean hydrogen energy technologies. The plan specifically identifies and articulates strategically important, high-impact focus areas for DOE’s Hydrogen Energy Program-which is coordinated across multiple hydrogen-related offices, including the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, the […]
On 12 December, Hyosung Heavy Industries signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with South Korea’s Namseong Electric Power, taking a major step forward in the field of hydrogen power generation. The official launch took place on 20 December at Hyosung Heavy Industries’ Changwon plant in South Gyeongsang Province in the presence of key executives from […]
Some 20 European companies, including steel, energy and hydrogen producers, have formed an alliance to promote a single European hydrogen market through the H2Med corridor. ThyssenKrupp Nucera said this in a message. The programme brings together companies from France, Germany, Portugal and Spain and offers a way to combine hydrogen production, storage and consumption projects. […]
Japan’s Inpex has begun front-end engineering and design preparations for a commercially promising blue hydrogen production project in Japan’s Niigata Prefecture that will utilise the company’s gas fields and existing natural gas infrastructure. The project plans to build a hydrogen production plant with a capacity of approximately 100,000 tonnes per year, which will be fed […]
The Hydrogen Energy Society Promotion Act (‘the Act’) was enacted in May 2024 and came into effect on 23 October 2024 as the first law in Japan to regulate businesses related to hydrogen energy and its derivatives. On the same day, both METI 2 and JOGMEC 3 launched their respective web pages dedicated to the […]
