Raven SR & Hyzon Motors to build up to 100 waste-to-hydrogen hubs

Green Car Congress

a global supplier of hydrogen fuel cell-powered commercial vehicles, announced a joint venture to build up to 100 hydrogen hubs across the United States and globally. This permits the control of the rotary reformer when there is water content or chemical makeup variation in the feedstock, such as in MSW.

GWU team demonstrates highly scalable, low-cost process for making carbon nanotube wools directly from CO2

Green Car Congress

The CNT wool process builds on earlier work by Professor Licht and his team to develop a one-pot process that transforms CO 2 into a controlled selection of nanotubes (CNTs) via molten electrolysis: C2CNT (CO 2 into carbon nanotubes). This synthesis consumes only CO 2 and electricity, and is constrained only by the cost of electricity.

Harvard team demonstrates new metal-free organic–inorganic aqueous flow battery; potential breakthrough for low-cost grid-scale storage

Green Car Congress

Wide-scale utilization of flow batteries is, however, limited by the abundance and cost of these materials, particularly those using redox-active metals and precious-metal electrocatalysts. But until now, flow batteries have relied on chemicals that are expensive or hard to maintain, driving up the cost of storing energy. Background.

Ford Bronco Sport first to feature parts made of 100% recycled ocean plastic

Green Car Congress

Much of that is attributed to the fishing industry, which has come to rely on plastic fishing nets and other equipment because of the durability, light weight, buoyancy and low cost of the material. Those same qualities contribute to creating ghost nets, a fatal and growing threat to marine life.

UK awards £28M for 5 demonstration-phase low-carbon hydrogen production projects

Green Car Congress

The project concerns the production of hydrogen at scale from offshore floating wind in deep water locations. The concept consists of a large-scale floating wind turbine (nominally 10 MW) with an integrated water treatment unit and electrolyzers for localized hydrogen production. Led by ITM Power Trading Ltd. Contract value: £7.44

DOE to award ~$96M for bioenergy research and development

Green Car Congress

Topic areas within this FOA will advance DOE’s Bioenergy Technology Office’s objectives of reducing the price of drop-in biofuels; lowering the cost of biopower; and enabling high-value products from biomass or waste resources. Efficient Wood Heaters (up to $5M): Developing and testing low-emission, high efficiency residential wood heaters.

Cal Energy Commission awards Shell $4M to develop and demonstrate multi-modal hydrogen refueling station; road and rail

Green Car Congress

However, these applications need the hydrogen refueling station to be in place in order to come to market, and they also need an affordable cost of hydrogen to be competitive with diesel for long-term operation and increased adoption. The Port of West Sacramento is a deep-water port which opened for commerce in 1963.
