Description
Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a new technique for extracting hydrogen gas from liquid carriers which is faster, less expensive and more energy efficient than previous approaches.

Hydrogen fuels, storage, and production projects are on the go, while CCS and wind projects receive significant international boosts from the likes of INPEX, Chevron, Equinor, and Eni, and Amazon splashes cash for more than three dozen renewables projects.
"bp and Linde plan to develop a carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in Texas that will enable low carbon hydrogen production at Linde’s existing facilities.
The development also will support the storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) captured from other industrial facilities, paving the way for large-scale decarbonization of the Texas Gulf Coast industrial corridor, according to the two companies."
Conferences can be boring. The same people saying the things year after year, executives taking the stage in order to promote their own companies rather than because they have something interesting or important to say.
Last week’s Green Hydrogen Global Assembly in Barcelona felt different. This conference had an attitude, a swagger, a purpose. This conference aimed to change the world. It introduced an industry-agreed Green Hydrogen Standard that set a strict definition for what can be labelled as ‘green hydrogen’, along with an independent certification process to back it up — potentially a key turning point in the commercialisation of renewable H2.
Arizona’s largest universities and energy providers have set out to create more carbon-neutral economic opportunities in the state, starting with plans for a massive regional hydrogen hub.
Leaders from Arizona State University, the University of Arizona, Northern Arizona University, Arizona Public Service, Salt River Project, Tucson Electric Power and Southwest Gas recently announced plans to come together in a new effort aimed at decarbonizing the state’s economy.
Unless you live near a port, you probably don’t think much about the tens of thousands of container ships tearing through the seas, hauling some 1.8 billion metric tons of stuff each year. Yet these vessels run on some of the dirtiest fuel there is, spewing more greenhouse gases than airplanes do in the process. The industry is exploring alternative fuels and electrification to solve the problem for next-generation ships, but in the meantime a Y Combinator-backed startup is gearing up to (hopefully) help decarbonize the big boats that’re already in the water.
