Hydrogen is the gas that’s the second best escape artist in the universe. Helium has it by an edge because while helium is four times the mass of hydrogen per unit, it comes in atoms, not molecules. Hydrogen only comes with another hydrogen atom in the hydrogen molecule, which ends … [continued]
In recent days I’ve become aware that a purportedly neutral and data-centric transit organization, the Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC), has been advancing hydrogen for urban transit in contradiction of global evidence of failure. A contact forwarded me a more detailed study that they’d done for the … [continued]
The long-running seminar series for India’s utility professionals through the India Smart Grid Forum closed with hydrogen. The hype glitter is starting to tarnish, but there is still a lot of substance-less shiny noise around the molecule. To that end, I stepped through the challenges and why hydrogen is virtually … [continued]
The electric boat field is stretching into new territory as innovators like Sea Cheetah leverage the wing-in-ground effect to fly their vessels over water.
The basic facts about hydrogen are well known. It has the ability to significantly reduce emissions from the steel and cement industries. As a power source, it creates no waste products other than water and heat. While the US struggles to find ways to reduce its carbon and methane emissions, … [continued]
Getting more zero-emission trucks on the road is an important transportation shift that is needed to reduce air pollution, protect public health and curb climate-harming emissions. But transforming the entire trucking industry is a challenging feat that will require the establishment of government policies with ambitious targets. Some jurisdictions have … [continued]
Green hydrogen will decarbonize heavy duty trucks in the US, as demonstrated by a first-of-its-kind fuel cell electric garbage truck trial in the US and Canada.
A forthcoming hybrid battery and fuel cell electric ferry is among the initial projects aimed at kickstarting a new green hydrogen industry in Estonia.
A UK startup plans to launch roving fleets of high tech sailing ships, aimed at leveraging wind power to produce green hydrogen on-the-go.
As the federal government pours billions into hydrogen production to lower greenhouse gas emissions, critics worry water shortages in the Southwest could worsen. Armed with bright green shovels, executives from the Australian mining giant Fortescue broke ground in May on a green hydrogen plant outside of Buckeye, Arizona, in an area the … [continued]
