Norwegian state-owned energy company Equinor and Germany-based energy company RWE have agreed to work together to develop large-scale value chains for low carbon hydrogen. The cooperation has these main building blocks: Construction of new gas power plants (CCGTs), contributing to Germany’s phase-out roadmap for coal.

Sundrop Fuels will convert sustainable forest residues and thinnings as feedstock combined with natural gas into bio-based “green gasoline” by using a commercially-proven production path that integrates gasification, gas purification, methanol synthesis and a methanol-to-gasoline (MTG) process. Sundrop Fuels, Inc.,

is working with CHOREN , a Biomass-to-Liquids (BTL) technology company, to optimize energy crops for thermochemical conversion to advanced low-carbon biofuels. The results will be used to identify the most relevant compositional traits, and later, to select the plants and traits that improve conversion and maximize fuel yields.

The past decade was the first in two centuries with increasing CO2 emissions intensities, owing to a “coal revival”, in contrast with the rapid conversion to natural gas in the 1990s. These trends, which are diametrically opposed to declared greenhouse gas mitigation goals and targets, are by no means limited to emerging economies.

And Germany isn’t the only country investing in hydrogen technologies. Almost all hydrogen produced today is designated as brown, black, or gray, meaning it was generated by burning natural gas or coal. Meanwhile, Siemens Energy is going ahead with plans to develop a commercial electrolysis system for offshore wind turbines.
