The Celtic Sea offers significant opportunities for offshore energy development, in a strategic area, close to major energy demand centres. The Crown Estate fully recognise this opportunity and is currently carrying out a consultation process to identify suitable areas for offshore floating wind licenses. Source Energie has been working for some time to identify both […]

EIB looking to invest in Hydrogen projects – EQ Mag Pro
The European Commission announced the REPowerEU Communication that includes doubling of the European Union (EU) hydrogen production target and underlining the need to enhance EU manufacturing capabilities of equipment such as electrolysers. In this context, the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance launched a call for project promoters among its members to present their projects to the […]
Hydrogen from electrolysis of urea – EQ Mag Pro
A low-cost alternative to water splitting for hydrogen production Scientists at the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences (CeNS) have developed a nickel oxide-based urea. Urea electrolysis is helpful in urea-based waste treatment with low-cost hydrogen production, which, in turn, can be used for energy production. The energy requirement for hydrogen production through water […]
Vice president Teresa Ribera inaugurates Spain’s first industrial renewable hydrogen plant in Lloseta (Mallorca) – EQ Mag Pro
Spain’s Third Vice President of the Government and Minister for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge, Teresa Ribera, inaugurated the first industrial renewable hydrogen plant in the country today. The plant is located in Lloseta (Mallorca), and it has been developed within the Power to Green Hydrogen Mallorca project that is led by Enagás and […]
Government may give PLI-like sops for hydrogen, ammonia – EQ Mag Pro
The government could offer incentives akin to those available under the production linked incentive (PLI) schemes to promote domestic production and export of green hydrogen or ammonia. Some of the measures, including sops for exports, could find place in the proposed National Green Hydrogen Mission (NGHM). The incentives could be offered for a period of […]
Green Hydrogen policy to support Renewable Energy capacity addition – EQ Mag Pro
“Green Hydrogen’ policy is expected to support the Renewable Energy (RE) capacity addition targets of the country. At present, ‘Green Hydrogen’ is produced through electrolysis of water using renewable energy. On the other hand, ‘Gray Hydrogen’ which is the most commonly used is derived from fossil fuels. The ‘Green Hydrogen’ segment is becoming popular globally […]
EU unveils €300 million plan to fund hydrogen research – EQ Mag Pro
The EU’s Clean Hydrogen Partnership, a public-private undertaking, has launched its first call for proposals on 41 research topics related to hydrogen. Much of the funding will go towards hydrogen production and storage. As the EU commits to move away from fossil fuels, hydrogen is seen as a convenient way of transforming electricity from wind […]
Indian Researchers Create Electrocatalyst System for Energy-Efficient Hydrogen Production Using Electrolysis of Urea – EQ Mag Pro
Indian scientists have designed an electrocatalyst system for energy-efficient hydrogen production with the help of electrolysis of urea, which is helpful towards urea-based waste treatment with low-cost hydrogen production, an official statement said on Wednesday. The energy requirement for hydrogen production through water electrolysis can be reduced by 70% through urea electrolysis. The energy-intensive counterpart […]
Making Hydrogen Transportation Commercially Viable – EQ Mag Pro
Hydrogen is a clean fuel that gives off water instead of carbon emissions when burnt, offering a sustainable alternative to conventionally used fossil fuels. There are some remaining hurdles to overcome to make hydrogen use commercially viable in the transport sector. New technologies and methods will be needed. Saudi Arabian oil company Aramco provides a […]
Green hydrogen production cost estimated to be $5.5 per kg to $6 per kg: ICRA – EQ Mag Pro
New Delhi : The levelised cost of production for green hydrogen is estimated to range between $5.5 per kg to $6 per kg, according to ratings agency ICRA. It said that under the base case scenario of delivering renewable cost of procurement, including intra-state wheeling and transmission charges in captive mode, at Rs. 3.5 per […]
