Trafag has launched the EXNT 8292 Ex pressure transmitter, a certified device designed for hazardous areas, hydrogen infrastructure, and marine applications. The transmitter converts pressure into a standardized electrical signal, enabling safe and accurate monitoring in critical environments.

The Catalonia Institute for Energy Research (IREC) has launched a pilot plant for the production of Solid Oxide Cells (SOC) using 3D printing. The technology aims to accelerate the industrial production of highly efficient fuel cells and electrolysers.

With the third auction of the European Hydrogen Bank and the Innovation Fund 2025, the EU is allocating up to six billion euros for hydrogen projects. Germany and Spain are contributing additional national funds.

The Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials (IWM) and the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are jointly developing a model for predicting the lifetime of materials in hydrogen applications. The aim is to achieve faster and more cost-effective qualification of components.

Mauritania has signed a framework agreement with Möhring Energie for the development of a PtX large-scale project. Starting in 2029, the plant is expected to produce up to 140,000 tonnes of green hydrogen and 400,000 tonnes of green ammonia annually for export.

A new study by the TransHyDE project analyzes possible development paths for the European hydrogen system until 2050. It calls for swift political decisions to reduce costs, ensure supply security, and avoid misguided investments.

Ahead of the World Climate Conference, the EU environment ministers have agreed to weaken the European climate targets. This includes a later introduction of emissions trading ETS2. 

In Hamburg-Moorburg, the construction of a 100 MW electrolyser has begun. The Hamburg Green Hydrogen Hub project is expected to deliver around 10,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually from 2027. The operators are Luxcara and Hamburger Energiewerke.

EWE has begun construction of a 320-megawatt hydrogen plant in Emden. The plant is part of the "Clean Hydrogen Coastline" project and is expected to supply green hydrogen to industrial customers from the end of 2027.

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.

Hylane has brought the first hydrogen truck equipped with a Bosch fuel cell module into Germany’s road freight transport sector. The 40-ton truck from Iveco is operated by logistics company Schäflein for the Bosch plant in Nuremberg – as part of a rental model.

Thyssenkrupp Uhde has implemented a hydrogen recovery unit for ammonia producer Fertiglobe in the United Arab Emirates. The unit increases production by up to 6 percent while simultaneously reducing CO2 emissions.

TÜV Nord highlights underground hydrogen storage as crucial for industrial energy security, urging policymakers to provide clear frameworks and investment incentives to ensure timely development.

Daimler Truck, HHLA and Kawasaki Heavy Industries are developing a green liquid hydrogen supply chain via the Port of Hamburg to enable imports and ensure reliable distribution across Europe.
