DOE to award $33M to advance hydrogen and fuel cell R&D and the H2@Scale vision

Green Car Congress

The US Department of Energy (DOE) announced $33 million in funding to support innovative hydrogen and fuel cell research & development (R&D), infrastructure supply chain development and validation, and cost analysis activities. ( Efforts in both areas are to be coordinated with the Million Mile Fuel Cell Truck consortium.

Researchers use chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas

Green Car Congress

Researchers at The Ohio State University have used a chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas—commonly called “sewer gas”. Hydrogen sulfide is emitted from manure piles and sewer pipes and is a key byproduct of industrial activities including refining oil and gas, producing paper and mining.

Rice U team creates low-cost, high-efficiency integrated device for solar-driven water splitting; solar leaf

Green Car Congress

Rice University researchers have created an efficient, low-cost device that splits water to produce hydrogen fuel. The current flows to the catalysts that turn water into hydrogen and oxygen, with a sunlight-to-hydrogen efficiency as high as 6.7%. The concept is broadly similar to an artificial leaf.

Reaction Engines, STFC complete proof-of-concept study on ammonia fuel for sustainable aviation propulsion

Green Car Congress

Reaction Engines recently completed a joint Proof-of-Concept study with the UK’s Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) to determine whether the company’s innovative thermal management technology could be combined with STFC’s catalysts to create an aviation system based on ammonia fuel.

Los Alamos and Oberon Fuels receive DOE funding to produce renewable hydrogen from renewable DME (rDME)

Green Car Congress

DME is a hydrogen-rich molecule that can be produced from waste and/or renewable resources using Oberon’s modular production technology. This project will produce the final step—technology that can convert rDME into rH2 fuel at the point of use. Our novel approach to generating hydrogen flips the current model on its head.
