Europe launches six-week consultation on Clean Industrial Deal | Europe

European member states have until 25 April to respond to a Clean Industrial Deal consultation, ahead of its planned adoption in June. The Clean Industrial Deal, published last month, is designed as a joint roadmap to boost competitiveness and decarbonisation in the EU. The State Aid Framework accompanying the Clean Industrial Deal (CISAF) will set out how member states can design state aid measures. Once adopted, the CISAF will replace the Temporary Crisis and Transition Framework (TCTF) and is intended to be in place until 31 December 2030. The draft CISAF contains provisions for accelerating the roll-out of renewable energy, for facilitating industrial decarbonisation, and for ensuring sufficient manufacturing capacity in clean technologies. It should also de-risk private investments. … to continue reading this article and more, please login, register for free, or consider subscribing… Read More »Europe launches six-week consultation on Clean Industrial Deal | Europe

Europe approves hydrogen funding for Austria and Lithuania | Hydrogen

The European Commission is supporting electrolyser and hydrogen development in Austria and Lithuania through state aid funding worth €400m and €36m respectively. The approved schemes, under the European Hydrogen Bank’s auction, will support electrolyser companies to produce up to 112,000 tonnes of renewable hydrogen in Austria and 13,000 tonnes in Lithuania. The schemes will contribute to the objectives of the recent Clean Industrial Deal to accelerate the decarbonisation of EU industry while strengthening competitiveness, of the REPowerEU Plan to reduce dependence on Russian fossil fuels and be greener, as well as the EU Hydrogen Strategy. The moves will help both countries achieve their national hydrogen objectives, as well as supporting targets for the share of renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs) consumed in transport and in industry that are set in the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive. Aid will take the… Read More »Europe approves hydrogen funding for Austria and Lithuania | Hydrogen

Utility Global produces hydrogen from steel plant off-gases with modular tech | Hydrogen

US-based decarbonisation tech company Utility Global (Utility) has produced hydrogen from blast furnace gas at a North American steel plant using its electrochemical reactor. Unlike conventional electrolysis, the system requires no electricity, potentially lowering emissions and operational costs for steelmakers. Steelmaking is carbon-intensive and accounts for around 7% of global CO2 emissions. While green hydrogen is a potential decarbonisation solution, its production via electrolysis requires renewable electricity and infrastructure investment. Utility said its system converts industrial off-gases into hydrogen while capturing CO2 for reuse or storage. Utility has tested the technology for over 3,000 hours at a major steel plant. Known as H2Gen, the modular system is designed to integrate with steelmaking operations and can restart within 15 minutes after a feedgas disruption, according to Utility. “Our H2Gen systems provide an economic, modular solution without… Read More »Utility Global produces hydrogen from steel plant off-gases with modular tech | Hydrogen

UK prospects in hydrogen flight could be delayed by storage challenge | Hydrogen

The UK’s prospects in liquid hydrogen (LH2) aviation could be held back by critical gaps in on-aircraft cryogenic hydrogen fuel storage, a new report from the Aerospace Technology Institute’s Hydrogen Capability Network has warned. The report, which maps out the UK’s cryogenic and hydrogen materials testing landscape, identified a lack of mechanical, thermal, and micro/nano-scale non-destructive testing under hydrogen conditions, which are critical for ensuring the safety and efficiency of LH2-powered aircraft. Currently, only a single mechanical testing capability is being commissioned, at Cranfield University, while other testing areas remain underdeveloped. Testing capabilities exist across several UK academic institutions and research organisations, including the National Physical Laboratory, the University of Oxford, and the UK Atomic Energy Authority. However, capacity remains limited, and expansion is needed to support the UK’s ambitions in zero-emission aviation, the report… Read More »UK prospects in hydrogen flight could be delayed by storage challenge | Hydrogen

Blue hydrogen now dominates US investment but doubts linger

Blue hydrogen has emerged in recent months as the dominant investment choice in the US when it comes to hydrogen. Major energy players are prioritising carbon capture-backed hydrogen over its greener cousin. Despite long-term hopes for green hydrogen, 90% of the country’s clean hydrogen projects are now blue, driven by regulatory realities and market constraints, as well as the fossil-first policy of the Trump administration. It is a trend that is explored more fully in the latest gasworld Global magazine, which is out now. By the end of 2025, analysts expect at least three major US blue hydrogen projects to reach final investment decisions FIDs, cementing the country’s role as a global leader in blue. ExxonMobil, Air Products, and Linde are spearheading investments, banking on carbon capture and storage to align hydrogen production with emissions… Read More »Blue hydrogen now dominates US investment but doubts linger
