Mitsubishi Power Americas has ordered 40 electrolyzers from HydrogenPro to produce green hydrogen which will be used for power generation, transportation and industrial applications. With this move, the companies aim to deploy utility-scale green hydrogen in the U.S. in order to support the country to achieve its global decarbonization targets.

Repsol has already begun construction work for developing the first advanced biofuels plant in Spain. The company will be investing 221 million dollars in this project which is expected to supply 250,000 tons per year of advanced biofuels.

Air Products and the Hamburg Port Authority have entered into a MOU to explore the potential of developing a hydrogen value chain across the port of Hamburg in Germany. The collaboration aims to increase the production, supply chain and consumption of hydrogen in the region.

PROCESS Worldwide brings to you the ‘Top 10 plant engineering projects of February 2022’ from all over the world. Right from China’s first megaton CCUS project to developing Europe’s first lithium refinery, find out all the projects making headlines here.

Under a long-term agreement signed between Linde and BASF, Linde will build and operate a new hydrogen production facility at Chalampé, France in order to supply hydrogen and steam to BASF’s new hexamethylenediamine manufacturing facility in the country.

Perstorp has submitted a 107-million-dollar application to the EU Innovation Fund for Project Air which comprises the development of a sustainable methanol production facility in Stenungssund, Sweden. The project has the potential to reduce global CO2 emissions by 400,000 tons.

Under the terms of the new expanded contract, Linde will supply carbon dioxide captured in its carbon monoxide production facility in Clear Lake, Texas, USA to Celanese’s manufacturing facility in the same area. Celanese will make use of this carbon dioxide and hydrogen to produce low-carbon methanol.

Shell has begun operations of a 20 MW hydrogen electrolyzer in Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, China. The electrolyzer will produce green hydrogen which will be supplied to fuel cell vehicles for the upcoming Olympic Games. Post the games, hydrogen will be supplied to the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region’s public and commercial transport which will help to decarbonize its mobility sector.

With this investment, Cemex plans to increase its hydrogen injection capacity across its cement operations while reducing the consumption of fossil fuels leading to the decarbonization of its processes. Hiiroc has introduced a technology that makes use of thermal plasma electrolysis to convert biomethane, flare gas, or natural gas into clean hydrogen at a lower cost than other existing solutions.

Under the terms of the agreement, L&T and HydrogenPro will set up a joint venture in India to carry out gigawatt-scale production of alkaline water electrolyzers based on HydrogenPro’s technology for the Indian market and other global markets. The move is in line with the country’s aim to become one of the world’s largest green hydrogen hubs.
