🌊 🌱 TotalEnergies and Equinor are teaming up with Techouse AS and SINTEF Energy Research on a groundbreaking decarbonization project aimed at retrofitting offshore installations with innovative combined cycle technology. The project’s goal is to develop a compact once-through steam generator (OTSG), which could boost power output by 30-33% while cutting emissions by up to 150,000 tons annually per installation. As Techouse CEO Svein Helge Pettersen noted, “This joint industry project will make our OTSG even lighter and smaller so that it can be installed on even more offshore installations.” 🚢💨 With a budget of over NOK 60 million and a target completion date of 2025, this project signifies a major step toward cleaner energy in offshore operations. 🔋✨ Pål Kloster, Sales and Business Development Director at Techouse, emphasized the importance of this lightweight solution: “A smaller lightweight solution will increase the likelihood of adaptation of CCPP on offshore installations.” This initiative has received NOK 12 million in funding from the Norwegian Research Council and could lead to a significant reduction in fuel consumption and carbon emissions. 🌍🌟 #RenewableEnergy #Decarbonization #OffshoreInnovation #TotalEnergies #Equinor #Techouse #SustainableFuture https://lnkd.in/gHXj7FGU

Japan's Utility Giant Jera Ventures into Clean Energy in Middle East: Jera Co., Japan's largest utility, is diving into clean energy investments, particularly in "blue" ammonia and "green" hydrogen projects in the Middle East. Notably, Jera has established a dedicated division targeting investments in low-carbon producing facilities, aiming for approximately 1 million tons of "blue" ammonia annually. This shift is part of Japan's ambitious goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition to cleaner energy alternatives. Jera has sealed strategic partnerships focusing on clean ammonia and hydrogen sectors, such as Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., and CF Industries. These alliances strengthen Jera's commitment to diversifying energy sources and enhancing access to low-carbon energy. The successful implementation of clean energy projects in Japan could significantly contribute to the nation's clean energy landscape and serve as a model for other global utilities. With Japan poised to be one of the largest markets for clean hydrogen and ammonia, Jera remains a key player in this transition. Thank you Sarita Sharma for your submission!

As part of the German Energy Solutions Initiative of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK), eclareon GmbH and the Delegation of German Industry and Commerce in Angola (AHK Angola) conducted a fact-finding mission for decision-makers and SMEs from Angola from June 24th to the 28th, 2024 in Düsseldorf and Krefeld, Germany. During the business visit, Germany's leadership in green hydrogen technology and infrastructure was a key highlight, offering unique insights to Angolan stakeholders. The discussions centred on the potential for Angola to leverage its renewable energy resources for green hydrogen production, a move that could significantly boost economic growth and energy security. The fact-finding mission was a valuable opportunity for participants to gain a deep understanding of green hydrogen technology and its applications, and to establish connections with German businesses. The mission also included site visits to German enterprises and best-practice initiatives, as well as a networking event. One of the key takeaways from the mission was the potential for strategic partnerships between German and Angolan companies. Such collaborations could facilitate the exchange of knowledge, innovations, and best practices, leading to significant economic and political benefits for Angola. By accelerating its entry into the green hydrogen market, Angola could not only make a substantial contribution to global efforts to reduce carbon emissions but also inspire and motivate other nations to follow suit. While the topic of green H2 was under discussion, the primary focus was on addressing the question, 'What should be done with this carrier?' It was made clear to all that the main goal is direct electrification and then consider the end use for transformational/transport purposes. The surplus energy could be effectively utilised for either transporting goods to neighbouring countries or generating hydrogen for industrial purposes. The excursion also served to highlight Angola's superior renewable energy generation capabilities compared to Namibia. The following German companies were part of the programme: German Hydrogen Association , PwC Deutschland , Technische Universität Dresden , International Power-to-X Hub , NEUMAN & ESSER (NEA GROUP) , duisport - Duisburger Hafen AG , thyssenkrupp , AWG Abfallwirtschaftsgesellschaft mbH Wuppertal , 2G Energy AG and Enapter . Thank you all for being part of such great initiative. #powerangola #renewableenergy #germansme #angolasme #solarhomesystem #sustentabilidade #transicaoenergetica #sgd7 #h2 #energyangola #greenhydrogen #renewableenergy #germanangola #africaenergy 🇩🇪 🇦🇴
