The latest hydrogen industry news, developments, and community updates.

VDL Hydrogen Systems and Battolyser Systems have completed their merger to form Alquion, a new company developing the Flexolyser, a flexible alkaline electrolyser designed for large-scale renewable energy integration.

Air Products is constructing a liquid hydrogen liquefier in the Port of Rotterdam expected to become Europe's largest facility of its kind when operational in 2027, supplying customers across the Benelux region, France, Germany, and the UK.

Plug Power has secured a FEED contract to supply a 275 MW GenEco PEM electrolyzer for Hy2gen's Courant project in Baie-Comeau, Québec, which will produce low-carbon ammonia for renewable ammonium nitrate used in mining explosives.

The European Commission has approved a €6 billion state aid package for Italy to boost renewable hydrogen production, targeting roughly 200,000 tonnes annually by 2030 through electrolysis and biogenic processes.

Italian private equity firm Endeavour Vision has launched Pact Systems, its first hydrogen production venture, which aims to produce hydrogen while capturing carbon in solid form as an alternative to traditional steam methane reforming.

Sungrow Hydrogen has shipped green hydrogen electrolysis systems to three continents, including 160 MW of alkaline water electrolysis units for a green ammonia project in Oman.

German cleantech company INERATEC and French industrial group TERTU have established joint venture T.H2 to develop a synthetic fuel production plant near Caen, France, processing 60,000 tonnes of wood residues annually.

The International Energy Agency states that low-emissions hydrogen is experiencing typical consolidation cycles rather than permanent decline, with global investments reaching $8 billion in 2025 and electrolyser capacity expected to grow fivefold by 2030.

Polestar Technology has introduced HYDRA OS, an AI-powered operating system for electrolyzers designed to reduce energy consumption, extend asset life, and provide auditable operational data for financing stakeholders.

Wienerberger UK & Ireland has secured government backing to retrofit its Denton brickworks with hydrogen-fired kilns, replacing 224 gas burners as part of a £6 million industrial decarbonisation project.

GlobalData reports global low-carbon hydrogen production capacity could reach 82.3 mtpa by 2030, though only 2% is currently operational. The sector faces financing constraints and execution risks despite a growing project pipeline.

Sungrow Hydrogen has shipped green hydrogen systems across three continents, including a 160MW alkaline water electrolysis unit for Oman's green ammonia project and containerized PEM systems for off-grid and flexible electrolysis applications in Italy and Brazil.
