Researchers split water by altering photosynthetic machinery in plants; semi-artificial photosynthesis

Green Car Congress

A new study, led by academics at St John’s College, University of Cambridge, has used semi-artificial photosynthesis to explore new ways to produce and store solar energy. They used natural sunlight to convert water into hydrogen and oxygen using a mixture of biological components and manmade technologies. —Katarzyna Sokó?,

Wärtsilä, Höegh LNG and partners receive funding of €5.9M to develop ammonia as hydrogen carrier

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen is emerging as a viable future fuel for addressing the move away from fossil fuels. However, it is difficult to store and transport due to its low volumetric energy density and with potential large vaporization losses. The significant emission reduction impact will reflect this green approach when the energy is consumed.

Siemens Energy, FFI and GeoPura developing prototype ammonia cracker to produce hydrogen

Green Car Congress

It selectively filters the hydrogen while blocking other gases, allowing it to be used as a fuel and converted as needed, at the time of re-fueling. It can be used for storing large amounts of hydrogen in a liquid form that builds on existing global supply chain infrastructure. million (US$1.8-million)
