Sandia team puts power into local grid with supercritical CO2 closed-loop Brayton-cycle turbine

Green Car Congress

Because so much energy is lost turning steam back into water in the Rankine cycle, at most a third of the power in the steam can be converted into electricity. It took us a long time to get the data needed to let us connect to the grid. In comparison, the Brayton cycle has a theoretical conversion efficiency upwards of 50%.

Fraunhofer team developing continuous rapid production line for fuel cell components

Green Car Congress

The strategy aims to build electrolysis plants for hydrogen production with a total output of 10 GW in Germany by the year 2040. The many millions of vehicles will need many millions of fuel cells to convert hydrogen into power, but as yet, Europe has no mass production facility that could cover this demand. Fraunhofer IPT.

Nouryon and Gasunie study scale-up of green hydrogen project to meet aviation fuels demand

Green Car Congress

The feasibility study follows a deal to convert sustainable electricity into green hydrogen for SkyNRG. The plant, which would convert renewable electricity into green hydrogen via water electrolysis, could be scaled up from 20 megawatts to at least 60 megawatts—allowing for production of 9,000 tons of green hydrogen per year.

Siemens developing power technology for deep sea oil and gas facilities

Green Car Congress

Located thousands of meters under water, these factories will need to operate reliably for several decades. As an example, beginning in 2020, Statoil plans to build oil and gas extraction facilities deep under water. Subsea facilities are currently only set up in relatively shallow waters.

Wärtsilä to retrofit German ferry with LNG dual-fuel engines to reduce environmental footprint on sensitive sea area

Green Car Congress

The project entails converting the m/v Ostfriesland , a car and passenger ferry owned by AG EMS, to be able to utilize liquefied natural gas (LNG) as fuel. The LNG tank connection space compartment is mounted directly on the LNG tank. The evaporators are heated by glycol-water that is circulated within a glycol-water heating unit.
