Alan Dunne, Managing Director, UK and Ireland at Aggreko UK, makes the case for gas-powered generation on the road to net zero For many UK industrial operators, the drive to net zero is not a distant ambition. It plays out in daily challenges for manufacturers, data centres, and other energy intensive industries. These facilities need access to reliable and continuous power at an affordable price, so that critical processes do not stop. Renewables, like wind and solar, are not always viable, and their intermittency presents an ongoing challenge. Batteries provide much needed resilience as well as additional capacity during peaks, but they cannot deliver power continuously over extended periods. That is why modern gas-powered generation remains essential for industry, providing a dependable backbone when the grid cannot meet demand. Across Europe, industrial sites are finding… Read More »Gas as the bridge to a net zero energy system | Columnists
Researchers in China and Singapore have developed a new way to use solar energy and biomass to make cheaper green hydrogen. The method turns sugars from biomass (such as agricultural waste cellulose) into hydrogen and another useful chemical, formate, at the same time. This could be cheaper and may use less energy than standard solar electrolysis that only splits water, because the sugar oxidation replaces the energy-intensive oxygen evolution reaction typically required at the anode. … 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!

The space industry is a growing consumer of industrial gases, but in one surprising respect the opportunity could be growing in a new direction. That’s because a new opportunity is emerging in space that relates to the making of materials for another industry served by industrial gases: semiconductor manufacturing. UK-based startup Space Forge is one firm taking this on. In October, it trialled deployment of a novel heat shield, Pridwen, on a zero gravity flight, which followed the signing of a memorandum of understanding with United Semiconductors, a leading specialist in bulk crystal growth of III-V semiconductor compounds. Source: Space Forge Meanwhile, another partnership from Intuitive Machines aims to integrate its semiconductor manufacturing payload into Intuitive Machines’ orbital return platform Zephyr under Intuitive Machines’ Earth Reentry Programme. And recently it generated plasma aboard its ForgeStar-1 satellite,… Read More »Beyond gravity’s pull: orbital chipmaking is better in space | Semiconductors
