Hygenco Green Energies has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Mitsubishi Power to deliver green hydrogen-/ammonia-fired gas turbine combined cycle (GTCC) power plants. The partnership aims to deliver these integrated solutions in India and overseas.
Hygenco will provide green fuel supply for MHI’s GTCC technology. It will develop and deploy scaled-up commercially attractive green hydrogen and green ammonia production assets on a build-own-operate or gas-as-a-service basis.
“The collaboration will synergise Hygenco’s green fuel supply for Mitsubishi’s technology in India and globally,” stated Hygenco.
Mitsubishi Power develops hydrogen firing technologies to decarbonize existing GTCC plants by converting their fuel from natural gas to hydrogen. It has joined multiple projects in Europe as well as globally which are planning to convert existing gas turbine power plants for blended and full hydrogen.
Adnoc has delivered what it claims is the world’s first certified bulk commercial shipment of “low-carbon ammonia enabled by carbon capture and storage (CCS)” to Mitsui for clean-power generation in Japan. “The low-carbon certification process, from production to delivery, has been conducted by TÜV SÜD,” said the Abu Dhabi-based oil and gas company. The carbon dioxide (CO2) will be captured and stored in a carbonate saline aquifer. Adnoc said it aims to capture 5% of the global low-carbon hydrogen market by 2030. The cargo was sourced from Fertil, Fertiglobe’s 100 %-owned facility in Abu Dhabi. Adnoc and Mitsui signed a strategic collaboration agreement in April 2023.
Airbus and its partners have launched an aviation hydrogen handling and refueling project to demonstrate small-scale liquid hydrogen aircraft ground operations at three European airports. The Goliat project will secure €10.8 million ($11.7 million) of funding from the EU Horizon Europe Framework Programme over a period four years, said Airbus. It aims to showcase the safe and reliable development and use of high-flow liquid hydrogen (LH2) handling and refueling technologies for airport operations. The consortium includes 10 partners from eight countries.
The US Department of Energy‘s (DoE) Argonne National Laboratory is building an R&D facility to develop and test large-scale fuel cell systems for heavy-duty and off-road applications. When the facility comes online in fall 2025, the industry will be able to access a dedicated location and support staff to test and validate polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell systems ranging from 150 kW to 600 kW, said the Argonne National Laboratory.
