Researchers at Japan’s National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) have discovered a new photocatalyst, Sn 3 O 4 , which facilitates the production of hydrogen fuel from water, using sunlight as an energy source. Sn 3 O 4 has great potential as an abundant, cheap, and environmentally benign solar-energy conversion catalyst.

Topsoe and green ammonia early-mover First Ammonia have entered into a capacity reservation agreement to kickstart the global market for green ammonia. With their cutting edge SOEC electrolyzers and industry leading ammonia synthesis, we will develop facilities around the world to produce millions of tons of green ammonia from water and air.

James Muckerman at the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) have developed a new class of high-activity, low-cost, non-noble metal electrocatalyst that generates hydrogen gas from water. In this new catalyst, nickel takes the reactive place of platinum, but it lacks a comparable electron density.

Hydrogen Economy Outlook , a new and independent global study from research firm BloombergNEF (BNEF), finds that clean hydrogen could be deployed in the decades to come to cut up to 34% of global greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels and industry at a manageable cost. Abatement cost with hydrogen at $1/kg (7.4/MMBtu).

I live in Manitoba , a province of Canada where all but a tiny fraction of electricity is generated from the potential energy of water. There is no end of gushing about China’s cheap solar panels—but when was the last time you saw a paean to hydroelectricity? Construction of large dams began before World War II.

When we turn up the heat in our homes and workplaces, we must balance our personal need for warmth with the global impact of burning fossil fuels like oil, gas, coal, and biomass. The novel system shows potential for tackling global problems in a patient, thoughtful, and human-scaled way. There is nothing special here!”
