Energy company Uniper has signed a long-term offtake agreement with Indian firm AM Green Ammonia for up to 500,000 tonnes of renewable ammonia annually. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2028.

Cellcentric has appointed Kai Wörner as Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Managing Director. The experienced production expert is to further advance the industrialization of fuel cell systems for heavy-duty vehicles.

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.

In the EU project H2Loop, hydrogen is to be extracted from blast furnace gases. Rouge H2 Engineering is contributing a chemical looping process for this purpose. A pilot plant is planned at the Italian steelworks Acciaierie d’Italia.

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“.

Automobile manufacturers are to reduce the emissions of their vehicle fleets by 90 percent by 2035. The remaining ten percent can be compensated with e-fuels and green steel from Europe. Hydrogen Europe hopes for a new lead market for climate-friendly steel.

Two projects from partners of the trinational hydrogen network 3H2 receive funding from the state program ELY. Electrolysers with a total capacity of 2 MW are to be built in Achern and Kehl. The goal is to establish regional hydrogen hubs.

The hydrogen initiative AquaVentus calls for the legal anchoring of combined connection concepts for offshore wind farms within the framework of the WindSeeG amendment. The goal is more efficient use of wind power and cost-effective hydrogen production.

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.

Methanol Reformer delivers a system to Japan for the first time. The L18 reformer is set to produce hydrogen from methanol at Mitsubishi Gas Chemical's Niigata site starting in 2026. The project also serves to validate the technology according to Japanese standards.

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.

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.

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.
