Marine e-fuels policies don’t go far enough, says maritime forum | Methanol & e-fuels

New policy measures set out by the United Nations-led agency the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) lay the groundwork for a transition to zero-emission fuels but may lack the incentives needed to make e-fuels like green ammonia and e-methanol commercially viable in the near term. That is according to independent not-for-profit foundation the Global Maritime Forum, which warned that the shipping industry risks delayed adoption of scalable zero-emission fuels unless stronger policy and investment signals are put in place. “The IMO’s new framework is an historic step forward, but unless e-fuels become competitive early on there is a risk that the sector will run into bottlenecks as … decarbonisation efforts scale up,” said Jesse Fahnestock, Director of Decarbonisation at the Forum. … to continue reading this article and more, please login, register for free, or consider… Read More »Marine e-fuels policies don’t go far enough, says maritime forum | Methanol & e-fuels

Canada firm to grow stake in site where it will search for hydrogen | Hydrogen

Natural hydrogen exploration company Primary Hydrogen has signed a deal to acquire a 75% stake in the Wicheeda North project, which is an early-stage exploration initiative in British Columbia. Primary Hydrogen will buy the holding from Power One Resources, a rare earth element mining company that acquired the acreage in early 2024. With majority ownership of the project, Primary Hydrogen will now look to evaluate the site’s natural hydrogen potential. Wicheeda North is also thought to have potential rare earth mineral deposits. Ben Asuncion, CEO of Primary Hydrogen, said the project grows the company’s footprint and holds significant potential for natural hydrogen and rare earth minerals. “The project lies within a tier-one mining jurisdiction with significant logistical and infrastructure advantages, as well as being on strike with a number of rare earth element discoveries and… Read More »Canada firm to grow stake in site where it will search for hydrogen | Hydrogen

China energy major allocates $690m for hydrogen projects | Hydrogen

China oil and gas major Sinopec has unveiled a $690m venture capital fund to support early-stage hydrogen investments and technologies.

German partners to demo ammonia cracker covering imports to hydrogen | Ammonia

Germany-based energy company Uniper has partnered with industrial group Thyssenkrupp Uhde to build a large-scale ammonia cracker at Uniper’s coal-fired power plant in Gelsenkirchen-Scholven, just north of Essen. The demonstration plant is set to crack 28 tonnes of ammonia per day and will underpin the planned hydrogen import terminal in Wilhelmshaven, northwestern Germany, where the technology will be scaled up to industrial levels. The project is described by Uniper as the first of its kind for being one of the world’s first industrial-scale ammonia cracking demo plants that’s designed to convert imported ammonia back into clean hydrogen. The goal is to prove the technology needed for large-scale hydrogen import infrastructure in Europe, using ammonia as a hydrogen carrier. The clean hydrogen can then be used as a fossil-free fuel source for carbon-intensive industries such as… Read More »German partners to demo ammonia cracker covering imports to hydrogen | Ammonia

US researchers optimise liquid hydrogen system for aviation | Hydrogen

A liquid hydrogen storage and delivery system designed by researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering in the US state of Florida aims to deliver zero-emission aviation while addressing key storage and cooling challenges. A team has designed a system for a 100-passenger aircraft hybrid-electric aircraft that draws power from both hydrogen fuel cells and turbine-driven superconducting generators. Hydrogen produces more energy per kilogram than conventional jet fuel and emits no carbon dioxide when burnt, making it practical for aviation. However, it is much less dense, which means it must be stored as a supercooled (–253℃) liquid to take up less space. … to continue reading this article and more, please login, register for free, or consider subscribing to gasworld Source link
