Mitsubishi Power Cuts Through the Complexity of Decarbonization: Offers the World’s First Green Hydrogen Standard Packages for Power Balancing and Energy Storage; New Green Hydrogen Projects Total More Than $3 Billion Investment
Publish Date: 9/2/2020
Mitsubishi Power’s previously announced green hydrogen projects in Delta, Utah, are the inspiration for the Hystore™ package. These are the Advanced Clean Energy Storage project and the $1.9 billion Intermountain Power Project. Today, Mitsubishi Power is announcing three new projects, with investments totaling more than $3 billion, that can use the Hydaptive™ package to help convert units over time from natural gas to hydrogen energy storage. These projects each include JAC gas turbine power islands that are initially capable of operating on 30% green hydrogen, with future capability of operating on 100% green hydrogen.
Wind Turbine Behemoth Plans for Future by Getting Into Hydrogen
Publish Date: 9/1/2020
The pilot project is under construction near Siemens Gamesa’s Danish headquarters in Brande, western Denmark, Chief Executive Officer Andreas Nauen said in an interview on Thursday. It will include a 3-megawatt wind turbine that will power a 400-kilowatt electrolyzer, a machine that separates the hydrogen atoms in water from oxygen atoms.
“We will be for the first time combining the two technologies,” said Nauen, who took over as CEO in June after leading the company’s offshore division. “It is not to produce hydrogen in big quantities, but to test the combination of both.”
Thyssenkrupp presents plan for carbon neutral steel plant
Publish Date: 9/1/2020
Thyssenkrupp unveiled plans on Friday to build a factory that will be able to produce carbon neutral steel by using hydrogen generated via renewables instead of coal.
Merz said the sector needed suitable support and incentive schemes in the beginning to kick-start the turnaround. Germany’s steel industry must invest about 30 billion euros to become climate-neutral by 2050, the government has said.

Where Are All the Hydrogen Cars We Were Promised?

“If you look at how much energy is actually flowing through your hand as you’re holding a dispenser at a gasoline pump, it’s on the order of 1 to 2 megawatts,” Wipke says. Compare that to the 2 kilowatts—a thousand times less power—that's available at a standard wall outlet. It’s easy to see why charging times are so long for battery electrics.
“With hydrogen, you’re still moving molecules," he explains. "As long as you have enough pressure and low-resistance flow paths, then you can push the molecules from the station to the car very quickly.”

"First and foremost, and not particular to just heavy-duty, is setting the stage with proper government policies and a policy environment that then signals and encourages greater private investment. Because both of those things together are what we need to scale up the market and that creates that opportunity.
"The challenge is getting everyone to work together because both public and private stakeholders are needed to do this.
"So, in these early years, we need to look at that policy investment in order to de-risk the environment so businesses are willing to make those long-term investments and achieve scale as quickly as possible. Because hydrogen at scale brings great value and benefit to all the stakeholders."

“In the last couple of years, and particularly last year, I’ve seen the greatest interest I’ve seen in hydrogen for two decades,” said Alan Lloyd, a senior research fellow at the Energy Institute at the University of Texas at Austin. “Why is that? I think the major reason is the recognition from major companies now that if they’re going to do something about looking at a sustainable energy transition, if they are going to take climate change for real, they’ve got to look at de-carbonization.”
