With growing demand for green hydrogen, Bosch has entered into a new area of business i.e. to develop electrolyzer components. The company plans to develop the core component of an electrolyzer – the stack and intends to invest up to 500 million euros in this new business.

A UAE-based technology firm Voltage Enterprises has made a major breakthrough in discovering a ‘clean gas’ for the global energy sector which is expected to offer an alternative supply to natural gas, is cheap and will also ensure zero CO2 emissions.

Repower EU is a plan to rapidly reduce dependence on Russian fossil fuels and quickly adopt the green transition. Cefic has recently issued a statement along with a position paper sharing its views on the plan.

Plug Power and Olin Corporation have come together to establish a joint venture under which both the companies will produce as well as market green hydrogen in the background of rising demand for fuel cell in the global hydrogen economy. The JV will set up its first green hydrogen production plant in St. Gabriel, Louisiana, USA which is expected to produce 15 tons per day.

Toyo Engineering together with Pupuk Indonesia Holding Company (PIHC) and Pupuk Iskandar Muda (PIM) will be conducting a feasibility study for green ammonia production at PIM’s existing fertilizer plants in Indonesia. The contract for this study has been awarded by the Government of Japan as it intends to use 3 million tons of ammonia annually as fuel in 2030.

A consortium comprising Johnson Matthey, Bekaert and TNO aims to improve green hydrogen production by optimizing the most important components of the electrolyzer. The move is expected to support the development of next-generation electrolyzers which will lead to lower electricity consumption and assist in cheaper hydrogen production.

The Bacton Energy Hub project led by the UK North Sea Transition Authority is exploring the potential for a hydrogen-led energy hub in Bacton, Norfolk, UK. With this move, the project aims to offer a sustainable hydrogen supply.
