The Hyundai XCIENT is operating in eight countries, including Australia, Saudi Arabia, and the U.S.

The global electronic waste stream is outstripping the ability of recyclers to handle the volume of incoming material. Electric vehicles (EVs) will add even more waste to the recycling stream, as millions of EV battery packs reach their usable lifespan. The way forward is challenging, but new fuel cell projects undertaken by Honda illustrates how automakers can pursue new strategies to ease the strain on the EV battery lifecycle.

The Arizona Commerce Authority (ACA) is the state's leading economic development organization with a streamlined mission to grow and strengthen Arizona’s economy.

Trains, ships and maybe even planes could be candidates for liquid hydrogen fuel too, and for all the same reasons: range, energy density and refueling time.

Winnipeg Transit is poised to award a $9-million contract to an Alberta company that will design and build a means of using methanol to generate hydrogen to fuel new zero-emission buses.

Partners from Belgium and the African nation of Namibia mapped out a plan to develop the continent’s hydrogen infrastructure for the production and export of the energy source as well as launching Africa’s first hydrogen-fueled vessel. It is part of an ambitious plan to make Namibia a frontrunner in the global green hydrogen economy and supply the alternative energy source both to passing ships and industrial users in Belgium, Germany, and other industrial clusters in Europe.

The organisers of this year's Paris Olympics are aiming to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of the Games. Hydrogen fuel is one of the elements in this endeavour.

Through its Roewe brand, SAIC Motor has unveiled an MPV equipped with a hydrogen-powered range extender. It is the Imax8, which already exists in a battery-electric version.

The Port of Oakland celebrated the official dedication of the NorCal ZERO project at a new hydrogen fueling station near East Bay Municipal Utility District today. The NorCAL ZERO project is a $53 million collaborative effort to deploy 30 Hyundai XCIENT Class 8 hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks in Northern California.

A hydrogen pickup would have bigger towing ranges and the ability to refuel like a gasoline truck, Toyota executives say.

By producing synthetic methane using the sun, this team of researchers is working towards closing the carbon loop.

On Tuesday, 30 April, the results of the European Hydrogen Bank’s first auction were announced. Seven projects across the EU will receive a total of €720 million, with a plan to produce 1.58 million tonnes (Mt) of renewable hydrogen over ten years, avoiding more than 10Mt of CO2 emissions.

Winning bidders will secure funds per kilogram of hydrogen produced (Kg/H2), sourced from the EU Emissions Trading System (Innovation Fund), bridging the price gap between current production costs and the price that hydrogen offtakers are ready to pay. The premium requested by the awarded project promoters ranged between €0.37 and €0.48 per Kg/H2 – well below the €4.5 ceiling price – for projects located in Spain (3), Portugal (2), Norway (1) and Finland (1).

U.S. Plug Power has reached nameplate capacity at hydrogen plants in Georgia and Tennessee, marking a milestone for the company's hydrogen network.

Electric motorcycles are all the rage, with lots of manufacturers big and small rolling out new innovations each year. But it goes without saying that even the most advanced EV motorcycles have their limitations.

Sure, charging technology has advanced leaps and bounds, but even the fastest chargers take way more time than filling up your tank—though Polestar is working on something pretty cool.

Of course, battery swapping technology also exists, but this necessitates dependence on infrastructure which can take years to build. As such, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) are exploring how hydrogen fuel cells could pave the way for the future of two-wheeled mobility, despite a host of automakers giving up on the technology.

According to a report, Stellantis Hydrogen chief, Jean-Michel Billig, reported to say that hydrogen fuel-cell electric Ram HD 5500 trucks will be coming to market soon. The company did not specify the exact time frame, but Stellantis says these trucks will be produced at the company’s Mexico-based facility that currently builds Ram HD pickup trucks and chassis cabs.

When Norwegian ferry operator Trollhatten Nord announced that it had placed an order at the Mykelbust shipyard for what will be the world’s two largest hydrogen fueled ferries, few details of the technology that they incorporated were revealed. Now more information is starting to emerge.

Green hydrogen is emerging as a clean fuel for transportation, promising to reduce emissions and revolutionize the energy sector.

Reaffirming its commitment to support fuel cell and additional hydrogen-related products and technology toward a hydrogen economy, Toyota Motor North America (TMNA) today announced that it is renaming the TMNA R&D California office as its new North American Hydrogen Headquarters (H2HQ). The office workspace at the new H2HQ was recently redesigned for its teams working from research and development to commercialization planning and sales of hydrogen-related products and technologies. There are plans to add key features to the H2HQ campus in the future such as a flexible microgrid, sustainable customer education center and more.

The companies are working together on a vehicle that will have a range of over 1000 km

INEOS Inovyn has announced that it is collaborating with Daimler Truck AG for an initial customer fleet trial of the Mercedes-Benz GenH2 liquid hydrogen-powered truck tests in Germany.

Alberto Boretti was a senior research professor at Prince Mohammad Bin Fahd University in 2021 when he first started discussing the idea of a hydrogen city in Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia. The New Zealand-based independent tells pv magazine that it is now commercially feasible, as the city’s 200 MW of energy demand would necessitate 1 GW to 1.3 GW of solar and wind capacity, 509 MW to 997 MW of electrolysis capacity, and 145,000 MWh of hydrogen storage capacity.

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) was recently selected as one of 16 teams to research enhanced production of geologic hydrogen by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) program.

Electrolyzers may become the country’s fourth-largest new energy export, Tsinghua University professor says
