   Overgang naar elektrisch rijden kan leiden tot nieuw milieuprobleem, blijkt in Servië
   
   nos.nl/artikel/2400397-overgang-naar-...
   
   Ik heb het tegen bekenden al eerder geroepen, accu's worden vanzelf wat benzine nu is. Het blijft vernielen van milieu in de jacht op (eindige) grondstoffen. De milieu lobby gaat zich verzetten.
   Leuke tussenstap die accu's maar zeker niet dé oplossing.

   McDermott Joins AquaVentus to Advance Hydrogen Production
   
   Strategic Research Institute
   Published on :
   06 Oct, 2021, 6:30 am
   
   McDermott has joined AquaVentus, a growing consortium of more than 70 companies, organizations and research institutions collaborating toward green hydrogen energy production in the North Sea. AquaVentus unites international industry leaders with a shared vision for advancing hydrogen's role as a low-carbon, affordable energy solution-combining their unique expertise to make that future a reality.
   
   AquaVentus aims to develop 10 gigawatts of generation capacity for green hydrogen from offshore wind turbines in the North Sea by 2035. The expectation is that the wind power generated will be used to produce up to one million tons of production capacity of green hydrogen, which will be used to decarbonize Heligoland and transported to land via pipeline.
   
   McDermott's involvement will bring the consortium comprehensive engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) experience in the onshore, offshore, subsea and storage markets, from concept to completion.
   
   Aquaventus is a strong consortium that currently includes over 70 leading international companies, organizations and research institutions. Together we want to make a decisive contribution to the implementation of the German and European hydrogen strategy. The aim of AquaVentus is to generate one million tons of green hydrogen with 10 GW of electrolysis capacity from offshore wind energy in the North Sea by 2035. The project family around the AquaVentus initiative includes numerous sub-projects. They range from the production of hydrogen in the North Sea to its transport to customers on the mainland. Coordinated consortia synchronize demand and generation and thus enable a rapid market ramp-up. The AquaVentus project family includes, for example: the development of offshore wind turbines with integrated hydrogen generation (Aqua-Primus), a large-scale offshore hydrogen park (AquaSector), a central supply pipeline (AquaDuctus), port infrastructures (AquaPortus), a research platform ( AquaCampus) as well as maritime hydrogen-based applications (AquaNavis).

   Beste forumleden, ik zou willen dat we eens wat nieuws krijgen, zodat de koersen van de waterstof aandelen eens stijgen i.p.v. dalen. Het blijft maar dalen, en dat terwijl heel Europa het over groende ( waterstof ) energie praten. Eerlijk gezegd, ik hou mijn aandelen vast, maar met pijn in mijn buik, al zoveel verlies geleden...ongelofelijk allemaal. ik begrijp gewoon niet waarom die enorme dalingen doorzetten, ondanks alle positieve berichten die je leest.
   Wellicht is er een legitieme verklaring voor, alleen ik kan hem niet vinden.
   Iemand?

   Het antwoord is heel simpel: je hebt je mee laten slepen door de waterstofhype en daardoor ben je ongeveer op het hoogtepunt ingestapt.
   
   En de daling is nog lang niet klaar...........

   Posco Hosting Green Steel Making Forum HyIS
   
   Strategic Research Institute
   Published on :
   07 Oct, 2021, 6:24 am
   
   South Korean steel giant POSCO is hosting 3 day long Hydrogen Iron & Steel Making Forum 2021 during 6-8 October 2021 at Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas in Gangnam in southern Seoul in South Korea. Around 1,200 people from 29 global steelmakers and institutions are attending the event to discuss carbon neutrality with hydrogen iron making technologies, policies to reduce greenhouse gases and collaboration in hydrogen iron making technology development. On the first day of the forum, methods of hydrogen-based steelmaking and the hydrogen breakthrough iron making technology project are introduced. On the second day, infrastructure and resources needed to produce green steel, prospects for the future steel industry and ways for global companies to collaborate are scheduled to be discussed. On the final day, forum participants will tour Posco’s Finex 3 plant in Pohang, North Gyeongsang. The forum is being held both offline and online.
   
   Posco CEO Mr Choi Jeong-woo in the opening address of the forum said “Achieving carbon neutrality in the process of steelmaking can be challenging for an individual country or a company to accomplish. But if experts from various fields compete and cooperate, and share the knowledge and experience gained, carbon neutrality in steelmaking can be reached faster than expected. Posco will lead the green steel era by proposing various agendas and platforms through this forum.”
   
   South Korean President Mr Moon Jae-in, delivering a celebratory address via video, also echoed Mr Choi’s call for the steel industry to decarbonize the steelmaking process, and vowed to offer support, citing the country’s 2050 carbon neutral goal. He said “Korea, whose steel industry accounts for a large part of its economy will act first and join the world in accomplishing the mission. For the goal of turning to a net-zero society by 2050, the country will work to close coal-fired power plants earlier than scheduled, and increase the proportion of renewable energy, while expanding the hydrogen economy. Moreover, with a view of turning to clean hydrogen, we intend to switch grey hydrogen to 100 percent blue and green hydrogen and significantly scale up the production of green hydrogen.”

   De tijd is eindelijk rijp voor groene waterstof
   
   Het Internationaal Energieagentschap ziet dat de tijd eindelijk rijp is om waterstof een belangrijke rol te geven in de overgang naar een duurzaam energiesysteem. In hun ‘Global Hydrogen Review 2021’ maakt het gezaghebbende agentschap de balans op over (duurzame) waterstof.
   
   In 2019 zag de wereld er anders uit. Toen hadden nog maar een paar landen verregaande strategieën om groene waterstof, gemaakt met water en duurzame stroom, in te zetten in de energiehuishouding. Twee jaar later hebben maar liefst zeventien landen - waaronder Nederland - zo’n plan op tafel liggen. En hoewel de uitwerking van die plannen soms nog te wensen overlaat, lijkt er na jaren van praten wel degelijk iets te gebeuren, aldus het Energieagentschap.
   
   Apparatuur voor waterstof komt langzaam van de grond
   Het zwaartepunt van waterstofproductie ligt in Europa: 40 procent van de waterstoffabrieken ligt op dit continent. Ook Nederland levert een (heel bescheiden) bijdrage in de vorm van Hystock, het waterstoffabriekje in Groningen. De hoeveelheid geïnstalleerd vermogen van elektrolysers, de machines die water omtoveren in waterstof, verdubbelde in vijf jaar tijd van 150 naar 300 megawatt. En er zijn een heleboel plannen: het IEA telt er 350, die samen goed zijn voor 54 gigawatt aan waterstofvermogen. Als al die plannen voor 2030 tot wasdom komen kunnen ze 8.000 ton waterstof produceren.
   
   Dat lijkt veel, maar de wereldwijde vraag naar waterstof als grondstof was in 2020 al 90.000 ton. En dat is vooral de vraag uit de industrie, die waterstof als grondstof gebruikt. Nu gebruikt de industrie waterstof gemaakt van gas. Als men straks ook waterstof wil gebruiken als alternatief voor aardgas, of als brandstof voor auto’s, dan zal de vraag alleen maar toenemen. Het IEA ziet dan ook dat het aanbod voor groene waterstof in 2030 eigenlijk tien keer zo groot moet zijn, willen we de doelen van Parijs in 2050 halen.
   
   Internationaal samenwerken voor waterstof
   Kortom: hoewel we ten opzichte van een paar jaar geleden grote stappen maakten, moet er sneller meer gebeuren op het gebied van waterstof. Alleen dan kan de CO2-uitstoot snel genoeg dalen en catastrofale opwarming van de aarde voorkomen worden. Hoe dat precies moet? Het IEA geeft in ieder geval een tip: meer internationale samenwerking. Want alleen doordat landen met elkaar afspraken maken over productie en afname van groene waterstof kan er een markt ontstaan.
   
   En die markt zal ervoor zorgen dat groene waterstof goedkoper wordt, waarmee er meer investeringen komen en de productie groeit. Japan (dat onder andere samenwerkt met Australië) en Europa (waar via de EU een waterstofproject loopt waar veel landen aan meedoen) geven hierin het goede voorbeeld. Ook Latijns-Amerika en het Midden-Oosten werken aan waterstofprojecten die vooral voor de export bedoeld zijn.

   EBRD & IRESEN to Boost Renewables & Green Hydrogen in Morocco
   
   Strategic Research Institute
   Published on :
   07 Oct, 2021, 6:30 am
   
   The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the Moroccan Research Institute for Solar Energy and New Energies are joining forces to boost energy transition. In a Memorandum of Understanding, the Bank and IRESEN resolve to strengthen their cooperation in the promotion of investments aimed at accelerating the country’s transition to green energy. The scope of the cooperation will cover a number of areas of common interest, including green hydrogen, renewable energy, smart electricity networks, energy efficiency, energy storage and e-mobility.
   
   Morocco is recognised as having a very ambitious strategy for scaling up renewables (the country has committed to reaching, by 2030, a level where renewable sources account for more 52 per cent of installed electricity production capacity) and regularly pioneering new green technologies. In Morocco, the EBRD supports the decarbonisation of the Moroccan energy mix and the country's green and sustainable energy transition through direct and indirect financing and policy dialogue initiatives.
   
   IRESEN was set up as a research institute in 2011 by Morocco’s Ministry of Energy, Mines and Environment and several key players in the energy sector to support the national energy strategy and enhance research and development in the field of solar energy, new energies and related technological applications.

    World’s Largest Clean Hydrogen Infrastructure Fund Launched
    
    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    07 Oct, 2021, 6:30 am
    
    TotalEnergies, Air Liquide and VINCI are combining forces with other large international companies to sponsor the creation of the world’s largest fund exclusively dedicated to clean hydrogen infrastructure solutions. The fund aims to reach 1.5 billion euros and has already secured initial commitments of 800 million euros. Its objective is to accelerate the growth of the clean hydrogen ecosystem by investing in large strategic projects and leveraging the alliance of industrial and financial players.
    
    The clean hydrogen infrastructure fund will invest in the entire value chain of renewable and low carbon hydrogen, in the most promising regions in the Americas, Asia and Europe. It will invest as a partner, alongside other key project developers and/or industry players, in large upstream and downstream clean hydrogen projects. Total commitments to the fund have already reached 800 million euros out of a target of around 1.5 billion euros at signature.
    
    TotalEnergies, Air Liquide, and VINCI Concessions have been at the forefront of setting up and aggregating commitments to this clean hydrogen infrastructure fund. As anchor partners, fully committed to low carbon and renewable hydrogen development, each has pledged to invest 100 million euros. The fund will be managed by Hy24, a brand new 50/50 joint venture between Ardian, a world-leading private investment house and FiveT Hydrogen, a clean hydrogen enabling investment platform. The choice of this fund manager allows to merge with their similar initiative and to add Plug Power as an anchor partner, as well as Chart Industries and Baker Hughes joining together.
    
    LOTTE Chemical has also confirmed its intention to participate as anchor investor, and is the first Asian company to join. The fund expects to attract further investments from large financial players, with AXA as anchor investor. Large international industrial players from North America and Europe, which are strongly committed to carbon neutrality, also intend to join the initiative as non-anchor partners, such as Groupe ADP, Ballard, EDF, and Schaeffler.
    
    With solid industrial expertise and significant investment potential, the clean hydrogen infrastructure fund will have a unique capacity to unlock large scale projects under development and accelerate the scaling up of hydrogen markets. With the announced support of public policies and some use of debt financing, the fund should be able to contribute to the development of hydrogen projects with a total value of about 15 billion euros.

    Nikola & OPAL Fuels Hydrogen Fueling Stations
    
    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    07 Oct, 2021, 6:30 am
    
    Leader in zero-emissions transportation and energy infrastructure solutions Nikola Corporation and leader in delivering renewable natural gas and renewable fueling infrastructure for heavy-duty truck fleets OPAL Fuels LLC have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding on the development, construction, and operation of hydrogen fueling stations in North America and the use of renewable natural gas in hydrogen production. Under this strategic engagement, Nikola and OPAL Fuels intend to co-develop and co-market hydrogen refueling infrastructure to accelerate the adoption of heavy-duty zero-emission fuel-cell electric vehicles.
    
    OPAL Fuels has constructed more than 350 RNG fueling station projects and has over 15 years of successful relationships with trucking fleets across the continent, reducing the carbon intensity of their fuel. Nikola’s Tre FCEVs for the North American market are slated for a 2023 launch from the company’s Coolidge, Arizona manufacturing facility.
    
    This collaboration will combine Nikola’s proposed FCEV bundled lease offer, which will include Nikola’s FCEVs, vehicle service and maintenance and hydrogen fuel supply, with OPAL Fuels’ significant experience in developing, constructing, and operating heavy-duty truck fueling stations to deliver a complete end-to-end solution.
    
    In addition, both parties plan to leverage OPAL Fuels’ growing portfolio of RNG supply to cost-effectively reduce the carbon intensity of hydrogen supplied by Nikola at the station, to meet customer sustainability objectives as they begin to transition to zero-emission vehicles.

    Iberdola’s Ignacio is Chairman of the Renewable Hydrogen Coalition
    
    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    08 Oct, 2021, 6:30 am
    
    The Renewable Hydrogen Coalition has strengthened its leadership with the appointment of Iberdrola group chairman and CEO Mr Ignacio Galán as chairman of the alliance and Sunfire founder and CEO Nils Aldag as vice-chairman for the next 18 months, to help shape the necessary regulatory framework in the European Union. Galán and Aldag will combine their expertise in renewables and electrolysers to coordinate the coalition's efforts to ensure that, with the right policies, renewable hydrogen becomes a competitive alternative to conventional hydrogen during this decade.
    
    Iberdrola's CEO said that “The Renewable Hydrogen Coalition has an important job ahead of it as Europe shapes its policies to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. We have a unique opportunity to ensure that Europe leads the world in both technology development and manufacturing associated with renewable hydrogen. The targets set in the Fit for 55 package for the use of renewable hydrogen in priority sectors are extremely positive in order to increase demand. These ambitious targets must be accompanied by equally ambitious tools for implementation, in particular financial support instruments to close the cost gap with fossil-based alternatives and give European purchasers the confidence to switch to renewable hydrogen.”
    
    The Fit for 55 package, launched in July by the European Commission, has set clear targets for the rapid and large-scale deployment of renewable hydrogen in sectors that are difficult to electrify. This roadmap will enable these sectors to achieve significant emission reductions and will boost innovation, job creation and industrial growth in Europe, consolidating the post-COVID-19 green recovery.
    
    Winning the clean technology race and securing the pioneering advantage in renewable hydrogen requires strong collaboration between public and private actors. The Renewable Hydrogen Coalition stands ready to work with European policy makers to build the regulatory tools that will enable Europe to achieve its goals.

    Waterstof moet weer leven brengen op Groningen Airport
    
    Wordt duurzaamheid de reddingsboei voor het noodlijdende Groningen Airport? De noordelijke luchthaven kan wel wat nieuw perspectief gebruiken. Over de eerste jaarhelft van 2021 werd een verlies geleden van bijna zeven ton. Door de loonsubsidieregeling van de rijksoverheid viel de schade mee.
    
    Ook na de pandemie zal de toekomst van de luchthaven op de grens van Drenthe en Groningen onzeker zijn. De vliegmaatschappijen die er een bescheiden lijndienst probeerden op te zetten, vertrokken allemaal weer vlot. En van vrijwel alleen lesvluchten is geen sluitende exploitatie te maken. Schiphol, dat grootaandeelhouder is van de luchthavens in Eindhoven en Rotterdam, ziet vooralsnog geen reden Groningen op te nemen in de groep. Alleen door financiële ondersteuning vanuit de regio kan de luchthaven openblijven.
    
    De problemen van Groningen Airport staan niet op zichzelf. Ook luchthavens als Maastricht en Twente leiden een marginaal bestaan en kunnen slechts overleven dankzij de steun van provincie of gemeente. In Maastricht is de vrachtfunctie een onderscheidende functie die wellicht een reddingsboei kan worden.
    
    Koerswijziging noodzakelijk
    
    Groningen Airport, dat dit jaar negentig jaar bestaat, is op zoek naar een nieuw fundament. Volgens Meiltje de Groot, die de luchthaven sinds begin dit jaar leidt, is een koerswijziging noodzakelijk. Zij zet vol in op nieuwe technologieën en presenteert haar luchthaven als proeftuin voor de grotere luchthavens. ‘Groningen moet de eerste Europese luchthaven worden die draait op waterstof.'
    
    ‘Groningen moet de eerste Europese luchthaven worden die draait op waterstof’
    Meiltje de Groot, ceo Groningen Airport
    De Groot ziet volop kansen in de trend van verduurzaming van de luchtvaart, zo bleek donderdag tijdens een evenement in Groningen. En daarbij wordt al snel gewezen naar het zonnepark dat er sinds twee jaar ligt, ingeklemd tussen de startbaan en de terminal. Het park telt 63.000 zonnepanelen, goed voor bijna 22 megawatt, en wordt geëxploiteerd door Groen Leven.
    
    ‘Het is het grootste zonnepark van Europa, misschien wel van de wereld’, zei gedeputeerde Tjisse Stelpstra van de provincie Drenthe donderdag. De gedachte is dat de energie die het park opwekt, deels gebruikt kan gaan worden voor elektrisch vliegen met kleine toestellen. En op den duur ook voor vliegen op waterstof.
    
    Op het symposium, Hydrogen Valley, werd een beeld geschetst waarin waterstof de luchthaven uiteindelijk een bestaansgrond zal gaan bieden. Straks wordt het druk en dynamisch in Groningen en zullen er allemaal kleine toestellen landen en opstijgen, met elektriciteit of groene waterstof als energiebron.
    
    Beschikbaarheid waterstof
    
    Maar in de energiesector bestaat er nog veel onzekerheid over hoe snel groene waterstof kan worden opgewekt en tegen welke kosten. Op het symposium leek het soms wel of het allemaal al in kannen en kruiken was. De luchthaven zou worden aangesloten op een landelijk netwerk voor de distributie van groene waterstof, dat stond wel vast. En dan zouden de toestellen toestromen, vol met zakenmensen en professionals die niet met de auto of de trein naar hun afspraak willen reizen maar met een duurzaam toestel dat korte afstanden snel overbrugt.
    
    Om dat ooit mogelijk te maken, zullen er een of meer demo-electrolysers moeten worden gebouwd die de zonne-energie omzetten in groene waterstof. De opdracht voor het ontwerp van een degelijke electrolyser ligt bij een consortium van bedrijven, onder wie Demcon uit Enschede.
    
    Zolang er geen waterstof beschikbaar is op de luchthaven — en volgens critici kan dat nog decennia gaan duren — zet de luchthaven in op elektrisch vliegen of een hybride vorm daarvan. Een handvol vliegtuigbouwers presenteerde zich in Groningen, waarvan de Sloveense fabrikant Pipistrel wel de bekendste is.
    
    Luchttaxi's
    
    Het werd een aaneenschakeling van ontwerpen, jaartallen en beeldbewijzen van de eerste proefvlucht. Eén contract heeft Groningen Airport binnen. De Britse start-up Electron Aviation, die luchttaxi's ontwikkelt, ondertekende een intentieverklaring om vanaf 2026 diensten te gaan aanbieden.
    
    Met elektrisch aangedreven toestellen, die elk een tiental passagiers kunnen vervoeren, zou er straks voldoende vraag uit de markt moeten zijn.
    
    Directeur Michiel Peters van het Nederlandse Lucht- en Ruimtevaartcentrum plaatste wel wat kanttekeningen bij het geschetste beeld en de onderliggende aannames. Er is nog weinig ervaring mee opgedaan en er zijn tal van praktische bezwaren. Kunnen de aanbieders van luchttaxi's en kleine toestellen een bedrijfsmodel bouwen op een vlucht met negen tot negentien passagiers over afstanden tot maximaal 1000 kilometer? Voorlopig vergt de groene revolutie in Groningen op zijn minst een lange adem.

    Thyssenkrupp Participating in 3 Hydrogen Projects of BMBF
    
    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    11 Oct, 2021, 4:57 am
    
    German Federal Ministry of Education and Research BMBF is supporting Germany's entry into the hydrogen economy with the hydrogen lead projects, its largest research initiative to date on the subject of the energy transition. Thyssenkrupp is involved in all three hydrogen lead projects and is testing the industrial production, use and system integration of green hydrogen. With these lead projects, the expertise in hydrogen technologies in science, business and civil society is bundled across Germany and thus given the initial spark for the development, conception and implementation of hydrogen solutions on an industrial scale. Within four years, Thyssenkrupp will continue to expand its technology leadership along the entire value chain of green chemicals by 2025. This involves
    
    1. The series production of large-scale water electrolysers H 2 Giga
    
    2. The production of synthetic fuels, green ammonia, green methanol and synthetic methane at sea H 2Mare
    
    3. Hydrogen transport and conversion technologies such as ammonia cracking TransHyDE.
    
    The BMBF will provide thyssenkrupp with almost 8.5 million euros in funding for research and development of large-scale production of alkaline water electrolysis. The aim is on the one hand to use scaling effects and thus to be able to reduce manufacturing costs. On the other hand, an expansion of the previous supply chain by 1 gigawatt electrolysis cells allows the implementation of larger project volumes, so that several gigawatt projects can be carried out at the same time every year.
    
    The H2Giga project INSTALL AWE led by thyssenkrupp focuses on the industrialization of AWE, which is the most developed and marketable technology today and is mainly used for large scale industrial applications. The modular and standardized 20 MW module from thyssenkrupp is also advantageous from an economic and climate protection perspective. In contrast to the compact design of PEM electrolysers, with the AWE single element technology, selective maintenance work can be carried out on individual cells instead of having to replace the entire stack. This saves resources and lowers operating costs.
    
    In the H To this end, thyssenkrupp will work together with its long-term partners such as De Nora and Hoedtke GmbH & Co KG, but will also build on new collaborations. In the H To this end, thyssenkrupp will work together with its long-term partners such as De Nora and Hoedtke GmbH & Co KG, but will also build on new collaborations. In the H2 Giga innovation pool with institutions, universities and small specialized companies with scientific and technical competence in the field of series production, broader research and development topics are examined, which should also drive Thyssenkrupp’s own development.
    
    In the lead project H 2 Mare, the production of hydrogen and downstream products such as synthetic fuels, methanol, ammonia and synthetic methane is to be developed on the high seas. The Power-to-X processes handled by thyssenkrupp include all three of the last-mentioned products. In the H 2 Mare project "PtX-Wind", the company receives funding of 780,000 euros for the development of the fundamentals up to and including engineering.
    
    Thyssenkrupp is also involved in the third lead project TransHyDE and, as an associated partner, considers the potential of the ammonia cracking process. Transporting ammonia as a hydrogen carrier is more profitable, especially over long distances. After green ammonia has been transported and liquid ammonia has been converted back into its components hydrogen and nitrogen at locations where hydrogen is required, the hydrogen produced in this way can be put to direct use. Possible applications are, for example, use in steelworks, as a green feed for chemical plants or in fuel cells in order to be converted into electrical energy.
    
    Thyssenkrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers offers world-leading technologies for highly efficient electrolysis systems. The company, a joint venture with Industrie De Nora, has already installed more than 600 projects and electrochemical systems with a total output of over 10 gigawatts worldwide. With the water electrolysis technology for the production of green hydrogen, it offers an innovative solution for the industrial scale.

    24 Firms Sign Up to Cut Emissions with HyNet Hydrogen
    
    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    12 Oct, 2021, 6:30 am
    
    Twenty-four major employers in North West England and North East Wales have formally agreed to work with the HyNet low carbon cluster, including those from the food, ceramics, paper, glass and automotive sectors. The UK's leading decarbonisation cluster project, which spans the Liverpool City Region and Greater Manchester Combined Authority areas, along with Warrington, Cheshire, Flintshire and Wrexham, will supply low carbon hydrogen to fuel businesses and heat homes across the region - enabling a switch away from fossil fuels starting in 2025.
    
    The organisations see switching to low carbon hydrogen as a critical opportunity both to rapidly cut carbon dioxide emissions, helping the UK's journey to Net Zero, and to manufacture low carbon products, driving value for the business and its customers. Each company has signed a 'Memorandum of Understanding' with the intent of receiving a future network connection and supply of hydrogen from the HyNet project.
    
    HyNet is ideally located close to both the existing infrastructure and the natural assets required to produce and store hydrogen. The North West of England and North Wales is the region which has the UK's largest number of people employed in the manufacturing sector, and has the skills base and determination to put the UK at the heart of the hydrogen economy.
    
    HyNet has recently run a 'global first' trial using hydrogen to produce sheet glass using 100% hydrogen at Pilkington Glass in St Helens. The team will shortly run a similar trial at Unilever's Port Sunlight manufacturing facility. These will provide confidence that these companies and others can safely switch to HyNet low carbon hydrogen as soon as it is available.
