Sun-run device turns dirty water into hydrogen fuel & drinking water

Researchers have created a floating, solar-powered device that converts contaminated water or seawater into clean hydrogen fuel and drinking water. Because it works with any open water source and doesn’t require external power, the device could be used… Continue reading Sun-run device turns dirty water into hydrogen fuel & drinking water

Solar catalyst captures methane to create pure hydrogen and carbon

Methane has a greenhouse effect 80 times worse than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period, and emissions are skyrocketing even as we start reducing CO2. That makes UCF’s new hydrocarbon-capturing, sunlight-powered catalyst a very compelling idea.Continu… Continue reading Solar catalyst captures methane to create pure hydrogen and carbon

Solar dish reactor produces hydrogen and captures waste products

Engineers at EPFL have built and tested a solar reactor that can generate hydrogen gas from sunlight and water. The system is not only highly efficient at producing hydrogen, it also captures the “waste” products of oxygen and heat to put them to use t… Continue reading Solar dish reactor produces hydrogen and captures waste products

Concentrated photosynthesis device promises cheap green hydrogen

We are a solar-powered planet; the vast majority of energy needed for life on Earth comes from the sun – and a lot of it, including food and fossil fuels, is the result of plant-based photosynthesis – the conversion of sunlight, water and carbon dioxid… Continue reading Concentrated photosynthesis device promises cheap green hydrogen

Hyperion plans to kickstart a H2 fuel network with mobile stations

Hydrogen supercar maker Hyperion isn’t happy about the state of hydrogen fuel infrastructure, so it’s decided to start building its own, rolling out yacht-styled mobile hydrogen stations across the United States that can generate fuel on-site.Continue … Continue reading Hyperion plans to kickstart a H2 fuel network with mobile stations

Fast-deploying solar/hydrogen nanogrid wheels emergency power off-grid

Michigan energy systems company Sesame Solar announced this week what it calls the world’s first 100-percent renewable mobile nanogrid. Powered by both its wing-like solar panel spread and green hydrogen, the next-generation modular nanogrid gets trans… Continue reading Fast-deploying solar/hydrogen nanogrid wheels emergency power off-grid

World’s largest green H2 hub, Hydrogen City, to open in Texas in 2026

Hydrogen City will eventually harness 60 gigawatts of solar and wind energy, and use it to produce over 2.5 billion kilograms (2.4 million tons) of green hydrogen a year, keeping it underground in storage caverns at the Piedras Pintas salt dome before … Continue reading World’s largest green H2 hub, Hydrogen City, to open in Texas in 2026

World’s biggest green hydrogen hub announced for Western Australia

Western Australia could soon be home to the world’s biggest green hydrogen project. The Western Green Energy Hub (WGEH) wants to deploy 50 GW of solar and wind generation to produce up to 3.5 million tons of green hydrogen or 20 million tons of ammonia… Continue reading World’s biggest green hydrogen hub announced for Western Australia

Fronius rolls out its first customer SolHub solar-to-hydrogen station

Well-respected Austrian solar energy company Fronius has broken ground on its first customer green hydrogen hub, giving us a good look at what it’ll take to run a fleet of vehicles on green hydrogen produced entirely on-site using solar panels.Continue… Continue reading Fronius rolls out its first customer SolHub solar-to-hydrogen station
