ArcelorMittal Spanish steel plant starts grey hydrogen injections

ArcelorMittal Asturias completed its coke-oven gas injection project for Blast Furnace B in its Gijón plant, Spain, in February. The project was linked to the use of coke-oven gas, where the company started the injection of grey hydrogen (hydrogen which is recovered from various gases, including natural gas and coke-oven gas) into its blast furnace. The use of this technology is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by 125k tonnes annually.

Australian green hydrogen vessel deemed ‘highly competitive’

A scoping study has found that Global Energy Ventures’ compressed hydrogen ship is technically feasible and ‘highly competitive’ to transport the hyped future fuel at distances that conveniently connect Australia to Asian markets.

The design of the new dedicated AEM fuel cell facility was completed in the second half of 2020 with full fit-out now complete in advance of full operation, AFC Energy said.

Fueling the future

Scientists combine materials with contrasting properties using a unique method to design a robust and high-performance fuel cell membrane for hydrogen production

HyPoint's next-level turbo fuel cell passes prototype testing

While this has been a very quiet year for airlines, about 2.5 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions generally come from the aviation sector, somewhere approaching a billion tons of CO2 per year. With air miles set to triple by 2050, this sector is a key target for decarbonization. Batteries are unlikely to displace fossil fuels in the powertrain; they can't carry enough energy per kilogram to deliver a commercially useful aircraft.
