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

Green Car Congress

It selectively filters the hydrogen while blocking other gases, allowing it to be used as a fuel and converted as needed, at the time of re-fueling. We have just 13 years to deliver a net-zero electricity grid for the UK. Source: CSIRO. Time is running out and we can’t do this alone. million (US$1.8-million)

Stanford team increases power of corrosion-resistant solar cells; advance for solar fuels

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Stanford, with colleagues at University College Cork in Ireland, have shown how to increase the power of corrosion-resistant solar cells, setting a record for solar energy output under water. Instead of pumping electricity into the grid, the power these cells produce would be used in the production of solar fuels.

Wind-to-Hydrogen Tech Goes to Sea

Cars That Think

They are highly automated production islands that directly convert wind energy to hydrogen, with a few of them processing the gas into fuels and other goods. The upshot is that a portion of the green electricity will have to be converted to other types of energy appropriate for specific applications. Experts call this Power-to-X (PtX).

The message above was sent through the first transatlantic telegraph cable between Newfoundland and Ireland, way back in 1858. million km of submarine cables (Figure 1) in service, ranging from a short 131 km cable between Ireland and the U.K. Installation and maintenance is easier to accomplish in shallow waters. and Norway.
