Siemens and Shell sign MoU to advance low-carbon, highly efficient energy solutions
Publish Date: 9/15/2022
The MoU stems from this relationship and from working together on several projects since 2010. One of the key milestones advancing green hydrogen is the recently announced construction of Shell’s Holland Hydrogen 1 (HH1) project on the Maasvlakte in Rotterdam. With a capacity of 200 megawatts and 60 tons of hydrogen per day, HH1 is planned to be one of the largest green hydrogen production plants in the world and the biggest in Europe. Siemens’ Electrification and Automation business plays an important role in the project’s planning, construction, and execution, as the power distribution and substation automation supplier. It will also be involved in the operation of the plant, which is scheduled to go on-line in 2025, through a servicing contract. The plant will produce hydrogen using electricity generated by wind turbines in the North Sea.

Hydrogen mobility for heavy-duty: Air Liquide and Faurecia are on the case!
Publish Date: 9/6/2022
In their wake, other intensive mobility sectors are taking a close interest in this energy carrier. In the short term, the railway and off-road vehicle industries (construction sites, mines, etc.) may convert their vehicles to hydrogen. In the longer term, low-carbon liquid hydrogen is a solution for decarbonizing the river and maritime transport sectors, as well as for the entire aviation sector, with the first commercial flights planned for 2035. Public transportation and road freight account for a massive number of vehicles on the road. This represents an opportunity to develop a new liquid hydrogen supply chain, while increasing production volumes for both liquid hydrogen and onboard tanks.
Chevron New Energies and Crowley to fund Zero Emission Industries
Publish Date: 9/8/2022
ZEI, founded in 2015, and formerly ‘Golden Gate Zero Emission Marine’ before a rebrand last year, acknowledges that hydrogen fuel cell technology is complex but it is on a mission to “break down the obstacles to adoption.”
The ZEP 250 aims to revolutionise maritime fuel cell power, with the company claiming it can install a fuel cell module in four steps without any system expertise.
CEO Joseph Pratt, said, “We believe hydrogen is the best path to energy security and decarbonisation of the maritime industry.”
