Siemens Energy, FFI and GeoPura developing prototype ammonia cracker to produce hydrogen

Green Car Congress

We have just 13 years to deliver a net-zero electricity grid for the UK. It can be used for storing large amounts of hydrogen in a liquid form that builds on existing global supply chain infrastructure. The traditional process of producing ammonia has used “grey” or “black” hydrogen from either natural gas or coal.

IEA: governments must act to ensure sufficient supply of critical minerals to meet net-zero goals

Green Car Congress

Demand outlooks and supply vulnerabilities vary widely by mineral, but the energy sector’s overall needs for critical minerals could increase by as much as six times by 2040, depending on how rapidly governments act to reduce emissions. Source: IEA. However, in climate-driven scenarios, these positions are reversed well before 2040.
