CMB.TECH has opened the first multimodal hydrogen refueling station in Antwerp, Belgium. It is the first refueling station to produce green hydrogen which will be used to power ships, tube trailers, cars, trucks and buses. The launch of the Hydroville in 2017, the first hydrogen-powered passenger ship, gave impetus to this commitment.

A series of 15 inland waterway barges being built for Belgium-based Plouvier Transport N.V., and which will be chartered by Shell Trading Rotterdam (Shell), are to be powered by Wärtsilä dual-fuel main engines. The barges will operate primarily on liquefied natural gas (LNG). The contract with Wärtsilä was concluded in December.

Many customers would like to change their vehicle fleet over to sustainable drive concepts and, especially in urban zones, to operate their routes using battery-electric vans. The concept for locally emission-free deliveries of temperature-sensitive products is also expected to be extended to other sectors and model series in the future.

For around ten years, MAN Truck & Bus has been working on innovative concepts for supplying and removing material in the urban environment. This problem involves developing ideas for reducing traffic at specific times and relocating it out of the city altogether, new approaches to the use of land, plus new transport and drive concepts.

IMEC launched a new industrial affiliation program (IIAP) to develop high-voltage, low-loss, high-power switching devices based on large-diameter (up to 200mm) GaN-on-Si (gallium-nitride on silicon ) technology. High-voltage power devices are conventionally based on Si MOSFET structures. Marianne Germain, GaN program director.

Unlike those you may have grown accustomed to seeing, many of these stations don’t just charge electric cars—they can also send power from vehicle batteries to the local utility grid for use by homes and businesses. So it’s a good moment to consider where vehicle-to-grid concepts first emerged and to see in Utrecht how far they’ve come.

We agree with Toyotas comments, which is why we advocate for mass production of PHEVs: "Were immensely gratified that some enthusiasts, in a tacit endorsement of the hybrid concept, are, on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, converting Toyota hybrids to plug-in technology. Pricing from $8-15,000 for installed low-speed EV range of 8-24 miles.
