We’ve written plenty about hydrogen’s potential as a transformative technology for green aviation; in gaseous form, hydrogen offers an energy density much higher than lithium batteries, and that offers a genuine path toward the decarbonization of short… Continue reading AeroDelft’s Phoenix rising as the world’s first liquid-hydrogen aircraft
Fuel cells generate electricity from hydrogen, so they’re a key part of the powertrain for hydrogen-powered electric vehicles and aircraft. But they can also be useful in a range of other applications, and in order to promote developments outside its o… Continue reading Toyota packages up a ‘crate’ fuel cell module you can use for anything
While this has been a very quiet year for airlines, about 2.5 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions generally come from the aviation sector, somewhere approaching a billion tons of CO2 per year. With air miles set to triple by 2050, this sector is… Continue reading HyPoint’s next-level turbo fuel cell passes prototype testing
In 2020, the world produced about 1,864 million tons of steel, and since some 75 percent of the energy used in steelmaking comes from coal, each of those tons sent about 1.9 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The world can’t get by without thi… Continue reading World’s largest hydrogen “green steel” plant to open in Sweden by 2024
A new project in the Australian Outback will trial an innovative technique for converting solar energy into hydrogen by capturing moisture from the air and splitting it via hydrolysis, making it possible for hot, arid areas to become energy exporters.

A new Hydrogen Council report sheds some light on Hydrogen’s rise as a green fuel source. More than 30 countries now have a national H2 strategy and budget in place, and there are 228 projects in the pipeline on both the production and usage sides.Cont… Continue reading Hydrogen projects worth $300 billion are dropping green H2 prices fast
We’ve been promised hydrogen-powered engines for some time now. One downside though is the need for hydrogen vehicles to have heavy high-pressure tanks. While a 700 bar tank and the accompanying fuel cell is acceptable for a city bus or …read more
Fraunhofer researchers have presented a magnesium-based “Powerpaste” that stores hydrogen energy at 10 times the density of a lithium battery, offering hydrogen fuel cell vehicles the ability to travel further than gasoline-powered ones, and refuel in … Continue reading Powerpaste packs clean hydrogen energy in a safe, convenient gray goop
Where will hydrogen fit in the clean transport mix? Not in trucking, says one of the world’s largest heavy duty vehicle manufacturers, which is scaling back its fuel cell big-rig research and development operations in favor of battery-electric power.Co… Continue reading Major manufacturer drops hydrogen trucks in favor of battery-electrics
To get off the grid with home solar, you need to be able to generate energy when the Sun’s out, and store it for when it’s not. Normally, people do this with lithium battery systems – Tesla’s Powerwall 2 is an example. But Australian company Lavo has b… Continue reading World-first home hydrogen battery stores 3x the energy of a Powerwall 2
