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

Infinity Fuel Cell and Hydrogen, Inc. demonstrated its Mystic 2000™ fuel cell power system by powering a Cellula Robotics Envoy AUV through over 2000 km of fully submerged operations, marking a significant validation of hydrogen fuel cell technology for extended underwater missions.

AKROS Energy has formally inaugurated a pilot plant in Rostock, Germany, that stores hydrogen chemically in salt carriers, offering a pressureless and non-toxic alternative to compressed gas, liquid hydrogen, and ammonia for hydrogen logistics.

Finnish biotechnology company Solar Foods has joined the BalticSeaH2 consortium to scale production of Solein, a synthetic protein created through gas fermentation using green hydrogen. The partnership aims to expand from current capacity of 160 tons annually to 6,400 tons per year.

Sunfire has selected Industriepark Lausitz in Schwarzheide, Germany, to host a solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) test facility expected to begin operations by the end of 2026.

Enapter unveiled its Stack 250 electrolyzer, capable of producing 100 kg of high-purity hydrogen daily and designed for plants with capacities of 100 MW and above across industrial and power applications.

NewHydrogen has successfully completed Stage Gate One testing of its ThermoLoop heat-based hydrogen production technology and entered the engineering phase. The company has also initiated a collaboration with NuCube Energy to explore integration with nuclear-powered heat sources.

Liquid Wind has submitted an environmental permit application for a large-scale eFuel facility in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, designed to produce over 100,000 tons of sustainable eMethanol annually by combining renewable hydrogen with captured biogenic CO₂.

RCT GH Hydrogen, a partnership between Germany's RCT Holding and China's Guofu Hydrogen Energy Equipment, has begun production at a 250 MW-per-year electrolyser facility in Saarbrücken, combining Chinese technology with German manufacturing expertise.

The California Public Utilities Commission unanimously denied Southern California Gas Company's request to recover $266 million in early-stage engineering costs for the Angeles Link hydrogen pipeline from ratepayers, citing lack of immediate customer benefits.

Bavaria's Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy signed a Letter of Intent with Onyx Power to build a hydrogen-ready gas turbine power plant at the Zolling Energy Park, designed to support grid stability during low renewable energy periods.

Uniper has received preliminary approval from the Darmstadt Regional Authority for a planned hydrogen-ready combined cycle gas turbine plant with up to 890 MW capacity at the Staudinger power station.

The European Hydrogen Bank's third auction allocated €1.09 billion across nine winning projects, delivering 1.1GW of electrolyser capacity and 1.3 million tonnes of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen production over ten years.
