European HYFLEXPOWER project to demo first integrated power-to-X-to-power hydrogen gas turbine

Green Car Congress

A consortium comprising Engie Solutions, Siemens Gas and Power, Centrax, Arttic, German Aerospace Center (DLR) and four European universities is implementing the HYFLEXPOWER project funded by the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 Framework Program for Research and Innovation (Grant Agreement 884229). million, of which €10.5

Fraunhofer IFF team designing hydrogen factory of the future

Green Car Congress

Electricity sourced from sun and wind is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen in a process called electrolysis. The hydrogen is stored and can be converted by fuel cells in vehicles back into electricity that powers them. We additionally want to supply electricity, gas and heat to industry.

DOE awarding $3.0M cost-share contract to FuelCell Energy for solid oxide electrolyzer; converting excess electricity to H2

Green Car Congress

is developing a solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) system to convert excess electricity during periods of low power demand into hydrogen efficiently. The energy storage market is expanding as utilities adjust to manage increased levels of intermittent renewable power generation supplying the electric grid.

KIST team develops membrane reactor system to produce pure H2 from ammonia with high productivity

Green Car Congress

Steam is adopted as a sweep gas, presenting efficient H 2 recovery (>91%) while replacing conventionally utilized noble carrier gases that require additional gas separation processes. Hydrogen gas, however, cannot be transported in large amounts due to the limitations in the amount that can be stored per unit volume.

Provaris receives ABS approval for design of H2Neo compressed hydrogen carrier

Green Car Congress

Provaris launched a program to develop a compressed hydrogen carrier in October 2020; in 2021 ABS awarded Provaris with an Approval in Principle (AiP) for two classes of green compressed hydrogen (GH2) carriers—the H2Neo (26,000 m 3 ) and the H2Max (120,000 m 3 capacity). Illustration of Provaris’ Proprietary Compressed H2 Cargo Tank.

Bloom Energy and Idaho National Laboratory to test use of nuclear generation to power solid-oxide electrolyzer for H2 production

Green Car Congress

When the electric grid has ample power, rather than ramping down power generation, the electricity generated by nuclear plants can be used to produce cost-effective hydrogen in support of the burgeoning hydrogen economy. First announced in July 2020, Bloom Energy’s electrolyzer converts water (or steam) into hydrogen and oxygen.
