Germany and the US showcase new electrolyser pilot plants, but Australia’s hydrogen sector is faltering, according to report

The opening of Thyssenkrupp Nucera’s SOEC and OCOchem’s CO₂ electrolysis pilot plants on one hand, and Wood Mackenzie’s analysis of Australia’s lagging hydrogen sector on the other, reveal the diverging trajectories of global players in the hydrogen economy. While Germany and the US push forward with electrolyser deployments, Australia risks losing its early-mover advantage without stronger policy intervention.

Europe’s hydrogen paradox – balancing necessity, sustainability and economic feasibility

The problem with strategies for green hydrogen in Europe is the lack of a unified approach that could also look to Africa as a potential supplier, writes Davide Chiaroni, Full Professor of Strategy & Marketing at Politecnico di Milano and co-founder of its Energy & Strategy research centre.

Pitfalls of power-to-x

Not all renewable power projects feed electricity directly into the grid. Some create useful chemical products or decarbonised energy carriers such as e-fuels instead. Their fortune depends on large-scale demand for their products, but not only, writes Selwyn Parker.

Spain sets its sights on green hydrogen and SAF

Spain is looking to establish itself as a leading producer of green hydrogen in Europe, as well as becoming a European hub for the development of sustainable aviation fuels, according to two separate new reports. Meanwhile, a new BP-Iberdrola partnership is to build the country’s largest green hydrogen project in a move that will help decarbonise BP’s Castellón refinery and see it transition into an integrated energy hub.

How Orkney’s airport terminal piloted a green hydrogen trial

A trial of a combined heat and power (CHP) system powered with locally-generated hydrogen on the Orkney Islands in Scotland was conducted in October by principal contractor EMEC. It was said to be the first time hydrogen has been used to meet both the power and heat demands of a commercial airport in the UK. The trial was the culmination of years of preparation, EMEC told New Energy World Senior Editor Will Dalrymple MEI.
