At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the Namibian Government reported on the progress made on the country's first large-scale, vertically-integrated green hydrogen project, which is supported by Hyphen.
Caterpillar Inc. has announced a three-year project with Minnesota-based District Energy St. Paul to demonstrate a hydrogen-fuelled combined heat and power (CHP) system. The project is supported by the US Department of Energy and backed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
The programme is part of the £1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP) which aims to provide funding for low-carbon technologies to decreasing the costs of decarbonisation.
Björn Bofinger, hydrogen consultant at AS-Schneider, explains how power-to-X and hydrogen technologies play an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The site will be 'future-proofed' by engineering designed to transition seamlessly into green hydrogen production and storage as the hydrogen economy evolves. The possibility of future green hydrogen export by ship will also be explored.
The FEED is expected to be completed by end July 2022 and will allow the final investment decision (FID) for the first hydrogen production and refuelling station to be made by the Board. Subject to FID, Lion would aim to start major equipment procurement process by August 2022, for a project completion by early 2H23.
According to GlobalData, Australia plans to accelerate its adoption of EVs, support renewable refineries for the growth of biofuels, increase its CCS projects, and develop low-carbon hydrogen markets across all industries.
Ingeteam will supply a battery system and its power electronics for the project, which has been developed by Iberdrola for Fertiberia, and is located in Ciudad Real, Spain.
In collaboration with WEC Energy Group, the Electric Power Research Institute, and Burns & McDonnell, Wärtsilä has been contracted to carry out hydrogen fuel testing at the A.J. Mihm power plant in Michigan, US.
