A handful of governments have spent nearly $30 billion in public funds on carbon capture and hydrogen projects, mostly for private fossil fuel companies, over the past 40 years, a new report from Oil Change International finds. National governments are expected to spend an additional $115 billion to $240 billion in the coming decades, the
King Abdullah University of Science and Technology researchers have told pv magazine that hydrogen storage pipelines and gravel could become a reality in lakes or water reservoirs in Europe, the United States, Japan, or China within 10 years. “The technology required to implement the proposed system is available, simple and cheap,” they said.

Mitsubishi Corporation and ExxonMobil sign Project Framework Agreement to advance world's largest low-carbon hydrogen project TOKYO, Sept 13, 2024 - (JCN Newswire) - Mitsubishi Corporation and Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM) have signed a Project Framework Agreement for Mitsubishi Corporation’s participation in ExxonMobil’s facility in Baytown, Texas which is expected to produce virtually carbon-free hydrogen
Solar PV and wind generation will be at the heart of Australia’s green hydrogen production goals, with these two technologies being the cheapest forms of renewable energy generation. Although Australia’s wind sector has started to pick up pace, solar PV continues to be the dominant clean energy technology, with it being added at an increasingly
Synopsis Thermax has partnered with Ceres Power to manufacture large-scale Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOEC) for green hydrogen production. This collaboration aims to create efficient systems that utilize industrial waste heat, targeting industries like steel and refineries. Thermax will establish a manufacturing facility and localize components, marking a significant step in India's green hydrogen landscape.

New research by scientists from the University of Reading and the University of Durham shows that encephalization (i.e., relative brain size increase) across 7 million years of hominin evolution arose from increases within individual species. Modern humans, Neanderthals, and other recent relatives on the human family tree evolved bigger brains much more rapidly than earlier
