hydrogen

The Norwegian energy company and the French utility say jointly developing low-carbon hydrogen will pave the way to achieving net-zero emissions in 2050.

Canada has several strategic advantages that can support a robust hydrogen industry. These include both carbon-based and renewable resources for producing hydrogen, a skilled energy sector, strategic infrastructure, and a history of being a global leader in the hydrogen and fuel-cell market.

The gas industry on both sides of the Atlantic is moving to create markets and infrastructure in Europe in anticipation of promoting blue hydrogen, derived from natural gas, as a transition fuel to support EU goals of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

Wind energy sources located offshore present challenges in transporting large amounts of energy. Energy transport through hydrogen molecules may be a solution. The PosHYdon project is intended to build experience with offshore H2 production and test power-to-gas technologies and integrated systems.

A Norwegian shipping company is eyeing smaller battery energy storage systems to design and develop greener heavy-lift jackups.

TechnipFMC and McPhy signed a memorandum of understanding to work together on the development and project implementation of hydrogen technology. Separately, McPhy and Chart Industries also signed a memorandum to scale up hydrogen projects across various markets.

Hydrogen is big news, and not for the first time. But this time could be different. This article looks at the current state of enabling technology, obstacles to a hydrogen economy, and signs that the hydrogen economy could be emerging.

Hydrogen from fossil fuels is not only an easier way to pivot to clean energy than going full-on renewables; it could also establish new businesses and generate tremendous revenue by leveraging the oil and gas industry’s existing knowledge and expertise.

Two technologies that may play a part in the decarbonization of the UK energy business are carbon capture, use, and storage and the use of hydrogen for energy transportation and storage. This approach builds on the UK’s gas-network infrastructure, which can be repurposed to avoid becoming stranded.

The Hydrogen Offshore Production project identifies an alternative to decommissioning by providing reuse options for offshore infrastructure. It aims to prove the feasibility of decentralized hydrogen generation, storage, and distribution to provide a bulk hydrogen solution.
