The latest hydrogen industry news, developments, and community updates.
Defense contractor Rheinmetall has partnered with electrolyzer maker ITM Power to develop hundreds of decentralized synthetic fuel production facilities across Europe, aiming to supply NATO armed forces with locally produced e-fuels derived from green hydrogen.
The Questa Hydrogen Project in New Mexico received $231 million in USDA funding to convert a former Chevron mine into a facility combining a 50-megawatt solar array with green hydrogen production for energy storage.
UK technology company Ceres has unveiled its Endura solid oxide stack, a 10.8kW unit designed for on-site data centre power and green hydrogen production applications.
Scientists in Chile have created a residential-scale hydrogen production system using end-of-life solar panels and proton exchange membrane electrolyzers, achieving a levelized cost of hydrogen of $5.8/kg.
Armstrong Industrial and Hystar have partnered to provide integrated hydrogen production plants ranging from 1 MW to 20 MW, combining Hystar's PEM stack technology with Armstrong Industrial's balance-of-plant expertise.
UK electrolyser manufacturer ITM Power has joined Rheinmetall's Giga PtX programme to develop decentralised green hydrogen e-fuel production plants across Europe for NATO-compatible fuels.
The Korea Institute of Materials Science is developing a non-precious metal catalyst using iron substitution to lower electrolyzer costs and accelerate scalable green hydrogen production for industrial and transportation applications.
A University of Naples Federico II study shows hydrogen production costs at Mediterranean ports range from €5.7-8.6/kg with renewables only to €2.5-13/kg in hybrid systems, with solar proving the most reliable resource.
ITM Power and Rheinmetall are collaborating to develop a Europe-wide network of decentralized synthetic fuel production plants for NATO armed forces, combining electrolyser technology with power-to-X expertise.
China and Russia have signed a memorandum of understanding to develop an integrated hydrogen production, transmission, and trade corridor, combining Russia's blue hydrogen capacity with China's electrolyzer manufacturing capabilities.
Ceres has introduced Ceres Endura, a solid-oxide stack platform designed for onsite power and hydrogen production at data centers and energy-intensive facilities, with installation timelines measured in months rather than years.
HyOrc Corporation has partnered with Portuguese industrial company MO.RE.DA. Oils to develop a waste-to-methanol pilot plant at an existing facility in Vila do Conde, Portugal, leveraging an already-licensed industrial site to accelerate permitting.
