📢 The December issue of Hydrogen Tech World is almost here – and just one click away from landing in your inbox! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ga5MXn4n Subscribe for 🆓 now and be among the first to explore an abundance of insightful content when the issue goes live later this week! Here’s a sneak peek of what’s in store: In an exclusive interview, Sebastiaan Surie and Willem Frens of Climate Fund Managers (CFM) discuss the critical role of blended #finance in overcoming the high upfront costs of #hydrogen #projects and ensuring their #scalability in regions with abundant #renewable resources but limited access to #capital. They also emphasise how 🤝 strategic #partnerships between local and international stakeholders are essential to unlocking the potential of 🌍#greenhydrogen and its #derivatives to drive the global #energytransition. Two standout projects demonstrate this transformative potential: 📌 The Hyphen project in #Namibia, a landmark endeavour to produce green hydrogen and #ammonia for export, demonstrates how developing countries can harness their vast renewable #energy resources for large-scale #decarbonisation. 📌 Similarly, the HyIron project, also in Namibia, showcases the use of green hydrogen in producing green direct reduced #iron (#DRI). Both projects highlight the vital role of green hydrogen in revolutionising industries while fostering local economic growth. Other highlights include: ➤ ‘H-Battery: the missing link for stabilising renewable energy’ by Karsten Schibsbye (ShipTown A/S) ➤ ‘#Sealing solutions in the green hydrogen revolution: a market overview’ by Angelica Pajkovic and Frank Weber (Teadit Group) ➤ ‘#Greenammonia production in #Patagonia: a pre-feasibility study’ by Felipe Gallardo and José Cáceres (Southern Lights) ➤ ‘Metal-fiber #PTLs enhance #efficiency of PEM #electrolyzers in hydrogen production’ by Thomas Favet (Bekaert) ➤ ‘Hydrogen #fuelcells and #backup #power: advancing energy resilience’ by Chris Tully ➤ ‘From renewable energy to sustainable #agriculture: linking the sustainable #fertiliser value chain’ by Deepak Shetty, Rolf Postma, Mahal Patel, and Nikolay Ketov (Stamicarbon)

XINTC, a Dutch initiative funded entirely by private #Dutch investments, has unveiled a revolutionary #electrolyser design featuring an all-plastic gas module (#stack). This innovation eliminates the need for critical #metals, #membranes, and #seals, paving the way for the mass production of virtually maintenance-free electrolysers.   This breakthrough could significantly reduce the cost of hydrogen production, unlocking new opportunities to scale up hydrogen adoption on a global scale.   Thanks to intelligent electronics, XINTC’s gas modules can switch on and off at high frequency – up to hundreds of thousands of cycles – without experiencing significant wear and tear. This allows the system to extract up to 25% more hydrogen from a single solar field compared to other manufacturers’ solutions. XINTC’s target market includes mid-range systems ranging from 500 kW to over 100 MW, making the technology suitable for a wide array of applications such as #ammonia production, #steel furnaces, #fertiliser manufacturing, industrial #heating, #biomethanisation, and #mobility solutions.   Production of gas modules and system assembly will take place on multiple continents, supported by a global network of distributors. The company has already received significant interest from international stakeholders eager to adopt this innovative electrolyser technology.   On 9 December 2024, the H2 Experience Centre in Kootwijkerbroek, the #Netherlands, will officially open, marking the global launch of XINTC’s pioneering electrolyser design. Established in collaboration with Energeion, the facility serves as a testing and demonstration hub, showcasing the electrolyser’s ability to be directly coupled with #solar fields and to adapt in real time to fluctuations in #renewable energy sources.

Syensqo has increased the production capacity for its Udel® polysulfones (PSU) sulfone #polymers at its Marietta, Ohio, US, facility by more than 25%. These polymers are used in critical health, water, and #energy applications, including #greenhydrogen production systems.   Read the full story ⬇️

Sunfire will deliver 50 MW of #electrolyzer capacity for Ren-Gas’s e-methane plant in Tampere, #Finland. The delivery will comprise five 10 MW pressurized #alkaline #electrolysis modules, which will play a pivotal role in converting #renewable #electricity into #greenhydrogen for e-methane production.   The German electrolyzer manufacturer will oversee the design, production, testing, delivery, supervision of installation and commissioning, as well as performance testing of the equipment.   Ren-Gas’s Tampere facility is set to produce renewable e-methane for heavy road and maritime transport. In the e-methane production process, approximately 40,000 tons of carbon dioxide captured from the Tarastenjärvi waste incineration plant’s flue gases will serve as raw material, along with green #hydrogen produced using Sunfire’s electrolyzer. The plant is expected to generate approximately 200 GWh of renewable fuel for heavy transport annually, in addition to 180 GWh of carbon dioxide-free district heating for Tampere’s district heating system.

Hystar today hosted an event at the Kårstø Gas Processing Plant in Rogaland, #Norway, to formally open its field project, HyPilot. The Kårstø plant is hosting the HyPilot project at its K-Lab test centre. HyPilot is the in-field demonstration of Hystar’s 1.5-MW containerized PEM #electrolyser. The project will provide performance data from various operating regimes, including #intermittent power supply.    The event was attended by the Norwegian Minister of Energy, Terje Aasland, who cut the ribbon, marking the official opening of HyPilot. Project partners were also present, including representatives from Equinor, Yara Clean Ammonia, Gassco AS, and ABB, as well as representatives from Enova, which has provided funding for the project.

SolydEra Group and Dynelectro have transitioned from a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to a formal collaboration agreement, marking the start of a strategic partnership. This agreement aims to deliver a 1-MW solid oxide #electrolyser by September 2025.   The expanded cooperation will leverage SolydEra’s advanced solid oxide #electrolysis technologies and Dynelectro’s expertise in industrial applications to develop innovative, efficient, and scalable solutions that support the production of #greenhydrogen and #ammonia.   As part of the collaboration agreement, SolydEra will serve as a solid oxide stack and technology provider to Dynelectro.

Uniper has selected Electric Hydrogen as its exclusive partner to design a 200-MW #electrolyzer plant for large-scale #electrolysis within Uniper’s Green Wilhelmshaven project in Northern #Germany. Electric Hydrogen began conducting the preliminary front-end engineering design (pre-FEED) work for the project in October 2024.   Uniper’s Green Wilhelmshaven project consists of two major systems: large-scale electrolysis, which will produce #greenhydrogen, and an #import #terminal for #ammonia. The electrolyzer will be built in Wilhelmshaven on the site of Uniper’s former coal-fired power plant. The ammonia import terminal is planned in close proximity to the first #LNG terminal in the north of Wilhelmshaven, which is operated by a Uniper subsidiary.   Together, the two projects could meet a significant portion of Germany’s projected demand for green #hydrogen. Both plants will be connected via #pipelines to the German hydrogen backbone and to underground #storage facilities in northern Germany. With the Green Wilhelmshaven projects, Uniper aims to transform Wilhelmshaven into a central hub for green hydrogen in Germany.   The large-scale electrolysis will use #renewable #electricity from #wind farms, creating zero-carbon green hydrogen gas for Uniper’s industrial customers.

Rio Tinto has entered into definitive agreements with GravitHy, an early-stage industrial company, to help accelerate GravitHy’s steel #decarbonisation project in #France. As part of this collaboration, Rio Tinto will supply high-grade direct reduction iron ore pellets from its Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOC) operations to GravitHy’s planned operation, as well as manage the sales and marketing of ultra-low carbon Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI) GravitHy produces.   GravitHy’s proposed two-million-tonnes-per-year iron production facility at Fos-sur-Mer, France, is planned to be commissioned in 2028. The facility, which is located next to a deep seaport, will feature ultra-low carbon #hydrogen production infrastructure, powered by existing grid-connected #nuclear power, to process direct reduction pellets into HBI. This process has the potential to reduce ironmaking-related CO₂ emissions by more than 90%. Read the full story ⬇️
