The ‘Hydrogen Hype’ Is Justified – Here’s Why
Policy Priorities to Spur the Green Hydrogen Economy
With the appropriate incentives and policies deployed now, green hydrogen will be cost competitive in the next decade and can be widely deployed to reduce emissions in the most challenging sectors. Policymakers must make concerted efforts to address the immediate green price gap, develop new end uses, and deploy supporting infrastructure for green hydrogen. The speed and scale of need is immense but this is what must be done for hydrogen to play its crucial part in preserving a future for coming generations.
Green Hydrogen Could Compete With Gray in a Decade, Engie Says
Green hydrogen, a clean energy source made from water and renewable power, could become competitive in a decade, according to French utility Engie SA.
That relies on Europe setting up the necessary regulatory framework to drive up demand and slash costs, Sebastien Arbola, the company’s head of thermal generation, hydrogen and energy supply, said Tuesday in Paris. The “tipping point” for renewable hydrogen to compete with gray hydrogen -- which is made from methane and emits carbon -- could be in 2030-2035, he said.
Union labor can enable hydrogen's carbon-cutting potential
Hydrogen provides a meaningful solution that addresses the need to lower our carbon footprint while preserving the most innovative workforce in the world. A cleaner, more resilient energy future is within reach, and union labor will build it.
First Stadler DMU for San Bernardino County departs factory; Equipment is first of three diesel trainsets for San Bernardino-Redlands service; hydrogen equipment to follow
In addition to the three diesel trainsets, SBCTA has ordered a hydrogen fuel-cell-powered FLIRT H2 trainset. That train, which will be the first hydrogen-powered passenger train in the U.S., is current under development at Stadler headquarters in Switzerland and is expected to be introduced in 2024.

Why the Future of Long-Haul Heavy Trucking Probably Includes a lot of Hydrogen
In short, instead of forcing everything to electrify or everything to use your fuel of choice, let’s develop the necessary technology and infrastructure then use it for the appropriate application – including taking advantage of the merits of hydrogen for long haul heavy trucking operation. In so doing, we can accelerate the proliferation of clean energy in the transportation sector, helping to achieve our climate goals and secure our future.
This new tech could make hydrogen an affordable, clean fuel for planes
“We’re splitting water with a combination of electricity and this high temperature steam,” Gross says. “And that’s what leads to a breakthrough in efficiency, and that leads to an eventual breakthrough in price.” Because the technology uses steam, it can use less electricity, making it as much as 45% more efficient. Since it also can run throughout the night, “we can amortize the cost of the electrolyzer over 24 hours, instead of over 6 hours a day,” he says. “And that four-to-one better amortization leads to lower cost hydrogen.”

U.S. unveils roadmap for net-zero aviation emissions by 2050
Can Hydrogen Save Aviation’s Fuel Challenges? It’s Got a Way to Go. Small, experimental hydrogen-powered planes are paving the way for net-zero carbon aviation by 2050. But the route is rocky.
More recently, ZeroAvia experienced a bad news/good news scenario when its hydrogen-fuel-cell-powered Piper Malibu Mirage M350 crash landed last April. The good news was that no one was hurt, despite the plane losing a wing. Better still, with no fuel to leak and no hot engine to ignite it, there was no Hindenburg-like conflagration.
“The hydrogen system itself all held up perfectly,” Mr. Miftakhov said. “The emergency crew said if it were a fossil-fuel plane it would have been a major fire.”
Shell and Norsk Hydro team up for green hydrogen
Could hydrogen be the newest green power source for Mass.?
But greening Massachusetts’ electric grid through offshore wind and other renewable sources will take years, if not decades, said Bob Rio, a senior vice president at AIM. Right now, he said, the majority of New England’s electricity still comes from natural gas-fueled power plants, so it’s important to look at alternatives that could reduce carbon emissions, such as hydrogen. Meanwhile, he said, state officials should focus on harnessing “green hydrogen” — that is, hydrogen made with electricity generated by wind or solar turbines.

The capital comes in from Air Water, MUFG Bank, Ltd. (MUFG), Nikkiso, and Japan Infrastructure Initiate (JII) as FirstElement Fuel is actively executing on its plan to build out its California Hydrogen Network from 31 True Zero Stations to 80 stations by 2024.
At least 12 of the 80 stations will be capable of refueling heavy-duty trucks in addition to light-duty cars.
You can now disconnect the mains using hydrogen: Producing and storing its own renewable energy is a dream for many European small communities. At Byneset in Trondheim, we find the world's first pilot plant that demonstrates such a solution based on H2
The way we combine wind, solar, hydrogen production and storage, batteries and fuel cells in this pilot is unique. This is the world's first microgrid with self-sufficient hydrogen as energy storage, says research leader at SINTEF, Kyrre Sundseth who works with sustainable energy technology .

The Green Hydrogen Catapult (GHC) set a goal of 45 gigawatts (GW) of electrolyzers, powered with green electricity, to be developed with secured financing by 2026, with targeted commissioning in 2027. The electrolyzers could produce enough hydrogen to power about 45 average-size steel mills, while cutting greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the need for fossil fuels, the group said.
