Plug Power has secured an order by Lhyfe to supply ten 5 MW PEM electrolyzers for the production of green hydrogen which will be mainly used by the firm for various mobility applications in Europe, including forklifts and light commercial vehicles.

Mc Dermott along with its storage business, CB&I has been awarded a Front-End Engineering Design (Feed) contract by Gunvor Petroleum for developing a green hydrogen import terminal project in the Netherlands.

ABB has entered into an agreement with Hydrogen Optimized to expand its existing partnership in the field of large-scale green hydrogen production systems. The deal also includes an investment into Hydrogen Optimized’s parent company.

With support from the Important Project of Common European Interest (Ipcei) Hy2Tech program, Cummins will expand its existing PEM electrolyzer manufacturing capacity at its Oevel, Belgium factory to 1 GW, thus accelerating the green hydrogen initiative.

With rising power prices in the region, Elkem has decided to temporarily shut down two of its furnaces in Thamshavn and Rana to curtail its production in Norway. During this time, the company will carry out maintenance and improvement work at its plants.

Claimed to be the world’s largest reservation of electrolyzer capacity, Topsoe and First Ammonia have entered into a deal to begin the global market for green ammonia. Under this deal, Topsoe will provide an initial 500 MW of solid oxide electrolyzer cell units, which is scalable to 5 GW, to First Ammonia’s green ammonia plants across the globe.

Perstorp is working on an innovative project which will assist the company to make use of wastewater from a nearby municipal treatment plant for its production operations in Stenungsund, Sweden. The project is expected to save 1.1 billion liters of fresh water annually.

Developed by Technip Energies and Clariant Catalysts, the enhanced annular reforming tube for hydrogen (Earth) technology is a recuperative reforming technology which helps to lower CO2 emissions and produce energy efficient hydrogen. In an interview with PROCESS Worldwide, Stefan Gebert, Product Manager, Clariant Catalysts as well as Stéphane Walspurger, Product Development & New Technologies Manager, Technip Energies jointly explain this technology along with its numerous advantages.

Making the right decision when it comes to packaging material is a challenge for manufacturers. Factors such as product protection, machine runnability, environmental friendliness, cost-effectiveness and consumer expectations all need to be reconciled. A seemingly sustainable material may not necessarily be the most ecological solution. Packaging machine manufacturer Schubert has been building up comprehensive expertise for several years, which it intends to make increasingly available to its customers in the future.

Asahi Kasei has commenced the construction of an alkaline water electrolysis pilot test plant for sustainable hydrogen production in Japan. The pilot plant will comprise several ‘Aqualizer’ electrolyzer modules which will help to perform various trial operations.
