Palmerston North could become key hydrogen production hub

Manawatū looks set to benefit from the rise of hydrogen in the transport and energy sector, as major companies look for greener alternatives to fossil fuels.

Central Economic Development Agency chief executive Linda Stewart said the region had the potential to become a hub for hydrogen production, with two major companies promising significant investment in the sector.

Firstgas, New Zealand’s largest gas network operator, recently identified Palmerston North as a prime candidate for one or more of the 15 new North Island hydrogen production facilities required for its plan to replace natural gas with hydrogen as a greener alternative by 2050.

Nanofilm forms JV with Temasek to capture new growth in hydrogen economy

Nanofilm Technologies International is forming a joint venture with Temasek to generate growth in the so-called “hydrogen economy”, increasingly touted as a cleaner substitute for the fossil-fuel economy.

The joint venture, Sydrogen Energy, will tap on Nanofilm’s capabilities in applying its advanced nano-coating to critical parts in fuel cell and electrolyser systems, which is poised to enjoy wider commercial application as more attention is focused on sustainability principles.

The parts, with Nanofilm’s coating, can be used for a longer period.

Hidrogénio. A primeira experiência com gás natural vai começar

Portugal vai ter em poucos meses a primeira rede de distribuição de gás natural com hidrogénio, um projeto essencialmente de aprendizagem, conhecimento e de testes, porque a “vida” do gás natural pode ser curta.

Hidrogénio: aposta de Portugal é irrealista e um disparate ou um filão?
