Hydrogen economy

Could glass bubbles be the key to the success of future LH2 carriers?

Hydrogen technology is seen as key to the future of clean energy and shipbuilders and designers are increasingly turning their attention to creating the liquid hydrogen (LH2) carriers that will be essential to any future hydrogen economy. Those shipbuilders include HD Hyundai Korea Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (KSOE) — and 3M glass bubbles could be part of its future LH2 carriers

Think of 3M (NYSE:MMM) and you may think Scotch Tape and Post-Its, but there’s a lot more to the company than...

Federal subsidies will make hydrogen one of the most cost-effective decarbonizing fuels for many U.S. industrial sectors.

Subsidizing Production

The emergence of U.S. government industrial policy designed to slash greenhouse gas emissions will push the country’s most polluting and carbon-intensive sectors to hydrogen as their fuel choice. By subsidizing the production of clean hydrogen, the government is encouraging its use by the steel, cement, iron,...

As such, ordinary water is a potential feedstock for the production of hydrogen. Photo credit: Jose Manuel Suarez via the Wikipedia entry “Water”. Licensed under Creative Commons 2.0.

Interest in Australia as a source of green energy continues to increase as Eneos Corp of Japan, a vertically-integrated petro-chemical group, has entered...

There’s a lot of excitement at the moment about the possibility of the elemental gas hydrogen being used as a fuel. And it’s easy to see why. Hydrogen is potentially one of the best fuels around.

Kilogram for kilogram, hydrogen is the king of energy content with a whopping 2.6 times more energy...

KHl Launches World’s First Liquid Hydrogen Ship To Promote Decarbonisation

The world’s first liquefied hydrogen carrier, built to ship large quantities cryogenically frozen H2 internationally, was launched by Kawasaki Heavy Industries (KHI) on December 11, reports Nikkei Asian Review.

Suiso Frontier

The Suiso Frontier (‘suiso’ means ‘hydrogen’ in Japanese) will play a key role in the Shell-backed HySTRA demonstration project (CO2-free Hydrogen Energy Supply-Chain Technology Research Association), which will see large quantities of H2 produced from brown coal in...
