Partners target 2028 for Norway green hydrogen facility launch | Hydrogen

Karmsund Hydrogen – owned by Norwegian Hydrogen, Sigma, and Karmsund Group – is partnering with HydePoint to build a green hydrogen facility in Karmsund. The facility, aiming to open in 2028, will be located at Karmsund Group’s service base, offering direct access to hydrogen users in the maritime and onshore sectors. The project plans to produce more than 3.000 tonnes annually based on 20 MW installed electrolysis capacity. “As a local company with strong roots in the business community here, we’re proud to take a concrete step toward establishing hydrogen production in Haugalandet,” said Marie Aanensen, Chair of the Board at Karmsund Hydrogen. … to continue reading this article and more, please login, register for free, or consider subscribing to gasworld You’ve reached your weekly limit to access free articles!

FT Hydrogen Summit: Developing new hydrogen finance models to overcome offtake impasse | Hydrogen

Clean hydrogen is not likely to become easier to finance through long-term offtake agreements being made, so another approach is needed. In Europe, this could include an institution being created to buy up any surplus hydrogen that’s being produced with some kind of transparent pricing attached. The idea was floated by Christian Stuckmann, Vice-President of Hydrogen for the state-owned German energy company Uniper, speaking as part of a panel debate on the bankability of clean hydrogen projects at the FT Hydrogen Summit 2025 in London. “Europe needs to buy the hydrogen,” said Stuckmann. “There are mechanisms out there that it could adopt, such as the H2Global model. It is [an intervention] that is needed because long-term offtake agreements are not going to be signed. It is too complex a space for those commitments to be… Read More »FT Hydrogen Summit: Developing new hydrogen finance models to overcome offtake impasse | Hydrogen

Climate tech firm hails hydrogen biotech breakthrough | Hydrogen

A climate tech energy firm is claiming an industry breakthrough after producing ‘bio-stimulated’ hydrogen without drilling, electrolysis or energy-intensive surface facilities. Gold H2’s field trial, conducted in a legacy oilfield in California’s San Joaquin Basin, leverages microbiology and existing infrastructure to produce clean hydrogen directly from the subsurface. The trial recorded results of 40% hydrogen in the gas stream and 400,000 ppm of hydrogen in produced gases. ChampionX LLC, which specialises in engineered technologies, served as the oilfield services provider. “Gold H2 exists to do what no one ever has: produce clean hydrogen directly in the subsurface using biology, engineering, and existing energy infrastructure,” said CEO Prabhdeep Singh Sekhon. “This field trial is tangible proof. We’ve taken a climate liability and turned it into a scalable, low-cost hydrogen solution. It’s a new blueprint for decarbonisation, built… Read More »Climate tech firm hails hydrogen biotech breakthrough | Hydrogen

Liebreich provocations on cost spark debate at London hydrogen event | swiss green energy firm morgen energy

Michael Liebreich, the analyst and investor behind the ‘Hydrogen Ladder’, which organises the molecule’s use cases into an order of likely adoption, has repeated his recent calls for a reset when it comes to hydrogen and its applications. In a keynote interview at the FT Hydrogen Summit 2025 in London, Liebreich’s growing scepticism about the direction and progress of the industry was front and centre. “I find it hard to say, but hydrogen is not a good fuel [for some of its target use cases],” he said. “It won’t do heating; it won’t do transport. It won’t even do ammonia. It is just too expensive.” Liebreich’s provocative words to a room of committed hydrogen industry players argued that politics was at work, with policymakers having become attached to hydrogen as an article of faith, in… Read More »Liebreich provocations on cost spark debate at London hydrogen event | swiss green energy firm morgen energy

Spanish energy firms to turn salt cavern into hydrogen storage | Hydrogen

Spanish companies Solvay and Enagás plan to develop a hydrogen storage hub in Cantabria, Spain, that could play a role in Europe’s decarbonisation efforts. The project will involve the partners repurposing salt caverns – originally created for the production of soda ash – for the long-term storage of hydrogen. Solvay, a soda ash production specialist, is now actively repurposing its network of salt caverns into strategic assets for energy storage, particularly for hydrogen and compressed air. … to continue reading this article and more, please login, register for free, or consider subscribing to gasworld You’ve reached your weekly limit to access free articles!
