Liquid Wind to partner with Sundsvall Energi on second electrofuel facility; eMethanol for shipping

Green Car Congress

Sundsvall Energi will partner with Liquid Wind to be the host and provide carbon dioxide for the second commercial-scale—100,000 t—electrofuel facility in Sweden. Biogenic carbon dioxide from the Sundsvall energy facility will be captured and combined with renewable hydrogen to generate green electrofuel, eMethanol.

Wind-to-Hydrogen Tech Goes to Sea

Cars That Think

Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. Some of the wind farms instead sit in clusters more than 100 kilometers out at sea.

PCC SE and Landsvirkjun to convert silicon metal plant CO2 emissions to methanol

Green Car Congress

The process of methanol synthesis requires the input of pure carbon dioxide and hydrogen from water electrolysis, with the only by-product being oxygen and water. Landsvirkjun generates energy from renewable sources: hydro, geothermal and wind. —Hörður Arnarson, CEO Landsvirkjun.

IISA study proposes using airships for efficient cargo or hydrogen transportation

Green Car Congress

Reintroducing airships into the world’s transportation mix could contribute to lowering the transport sector’s carbon emissions and can play a role in establishing a sustainable hydrogen based economy, according to a new IIASA-led study. Hydrogen is a good energy carrier and a valuable energy storage alternative.

Toyota and public and private partners in Japan to trial renewable CO2-free hydrogen supply chain

Green Car Congress

Major corporate and public sector partners in Japan are launching an effort to test a full carbon-neutral hydrogen supply chain powered by renewable wind energy. While hydrogen is most commonly created through steam methane reforming, it can also be created from water through electrolysis. Use of fuel cell forklifts.
