The Swiss construction company Eberhard has signed a long-term purchase agreement with Synhelion for solar diesel. From 2027, the company's construction machinery shall be powered by renewable fuel – a first in the construction sector.

As part of the German-Chilean Power-to-MEDME R&D project, researchers at Fraunhofer IAP have developed new PEM electrolyzer catalysts with significantly reduced iridium content. The innovation aims to lower costs and enable scalable hydrogen production—without compromising performance.

Delta, MODEC and Eld Energy plan to pilot a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system on a floating production, storage and offloading unit (FPSO) by 2027. According to the companies, this would mark the first offshore deployment of SOFC technology—with potential land-based applications to follow.

As part of the DeCarTrans project, the TU Bergakademie Freiberg has processed industrially produced e-methanol from Denmark into synthetic gasoline for the first time. This step is considered a technological milestone for industrial e-fuel production.

The US electrolyser manufacturer Power to Hydrogen has appointed David Bow as Chief Strategy Officer. Bow is to drive international market expansion and strategic partnerships. He brings over 25 years of industry experience.

At the North Sea Summit in Hamburg BDEW and AquaVentus are calling for stronger European cooperation in offshore wind expansion—and for the systematic integration of offshore electrolysis into national and regional planning. Studies show that lower spatial density, cross-border area cooperation and combined infrastructure solutions can significantly reduce costs and increase efficiency.

A new study in the context of a German innovation testbed shows: The market ramp-up of green hydrogen is hindered by a complex cycle of obstacles including regulation, lack of economic viability, and infrastructure problems. The analysis is based on discussions at an event called„NRL Transformation Labs“.


Two 100 MW plants are to supply green hydrogen for Repsol refineries in Cartagena and Muskiz from 2029. Sunfire relies on its pressurised alkaline technology.

The Bosch Group and Linz AG aim to advance hydrogen technologies in Linz together. A new partnership includes the use of hydrogen from the Bosch test field and the expansion of further electrolysis capacities.

The municipality of Bosbüll in North Frisia is expanding its district heating network. In the future, process heat from local hydrogen production will also be fed into the system. Construction is scheduled to begin in fall 2025.

The Swiss company Infener wants to promote hydrogen throughout Europe. Decentralized H₂ hubs will be used to generate green electricity as well as green heat. The Ecore One is a compact containerized solution that combines various energy technologies in one unit: electrolyzer, fuel cell and battery as well as compressor and a heat pump with its own energy management system or EMS. H₂ production is due to start 2027 at a site in the Black Forest, Germany. However, the needs of regional industry are already far greater today.

Phinia is showcasing new technologies for hydrogen combustion engines at Hyvolution 2026 in Paris. Among other things, an H2 conversion of a diesel engine and complete vehicle conversions for light commercial vehicles will be displayed.

Finland is massively expanding its CO₂-neutral power generation to lay the foundation for up to 100 e-fuel plants. Low electricity prices, biogenic CO₂, and clear political guidelines make the country increasingly attractive for the hydrogen economy.

The module manufacturer Longi is entering the storage sector with its own all-in-one solution. The company aims to position itself as an integrated provider of solar, storage and hydrogen solutions. Longi’s newly presented strategy highlights its key priorities.

Gascade has converted around 400 kilometres of existing natural gas pipelines to hydrogen. The new north-south axis is part of the project "Flow – making hydrogen happen" and forms a central section of Germany's hydrogen core network.
