Rolls-Royce Power Systems road map for climate-neutrality; 35% cut by 2030 from 2019; key role of mtu engines

Green Car Congress

Rolls-Royce Power Systems has outlined its road map for climate neutrality: Net Zero@Power Systems. Since many chemical processes, like creating hydrogen, require electricity, it is crucial that the latter is produced, transmitted, and stored in an ecological friendly way, i.e. by renewable means. but also second-generation biofuels).

IIASA study proposes solid air hydrogen liquefaction as efficient addition to hydrogen liquefaction supply chain

Green Car Congress

A new approach developed by researchers from the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Austria and international colleagues proposes using solid air (nitrogen or oxygen) as a medium for recycling cooling energy across the hydrogen liquefaction supply chain. —Julian Hunt Resources Hunt, J., Montanari, P.,

Porsche, Siemens Energy and partners advance climate-neutral eFuels development; Haru Oni pilot in Chile

Green Car Congress

Porsche, Siemens Energy and partners are developing and implementing a pilot project—the “Haru Oni” project—in Chile that is expected to yield the world’s first integrated, commercial, industrial-scale plant for making synthetic climate-neutral fuels (eFuels). Electrolyzers will use wind power to produce green hydrogen.

IEEE’s Plan To Help Combat Climate Change

Cars That Think

The IEEE Board of Directors formed an ad hoc committee on climate change in February to coordinate its response to the global threat. Rahman: Its charter is to develop a cross-IEEE strategy to synchronize and guide the organization’s response to changes in the global climate. Why should IEEE be involved in combating climate change?

Deloitte forecasts clean hydrogen market to hit US$1.4T per year by 2050

Green Car Congress

To achieve climate neutrality by 2050, the clean hydrogen market capacity can grow to 170 million tons (MtH 2 eq) in 2030 and to 600 MtH 2 eq in 2050. Reducing our carbon emissions and the physical and economic damages from unmitigated climate change is a massive win for nations and businesses alike. trillion in developing economies.

International consortium launches government-supported study on hydrogen vehicle refueling infrastructure in France

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen can be produced, stored, transported and used in many ways—to power or recharge mobile devices; to power remote locations; to propel vehicles or electric boats; to store intermittent electricity; to increase the production of biofuels; and to reduce the carbon footprint of natural gas in networks.
