Construction of the world’s largest project plant for storing green hydrogen in LOHC begins in Germany

Green Car Congress

The world’s largest plant for storing green hydrogen in liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC) on an industrial scale is being built at CHEMPARK Dormagen. The scientific partner is the Jülich Research Center with its Institute for Energy and Climate Research; €2 million of the funding for accompanying scientific studies will go there.

Rolls-Royce Power Systems road map for climate-neutrality; 35% cut by 2030 from 2019; key role of mtu engines

Green Car Congress

Rolls-Royce Power Systems has outlined its road map for climate neutrality: Net Zero@Power Systems. Since many chemical processes, like creating hydrogen, require electricity, it is crucial that the latter is produced, transmitted, and stored in an ecological friendly way, i.e. by renewable means. but also second-generation biofuels).

Bosch on importance of renewable synthetic fuels to reach climate goals; e-fuels

Green Car Congress

Climate neutrality. Vehicles on the road, when powered by synthetic fuel, are ultimately climate-neutral. Sufficient renewable energy can be generated worldwide to produce fuel that can then be stored and transported relatively easily. The production process is viable, but capacity is lacking. Storage and transport.

LSBU researchers investigating metal hydride hydrogen storage for buses

Green Car Congress

Researchers from London South Bank University (LSBU), School of the Built Environment and Architecture, are investigating the use of metal hydrides to absorb, release and store hydrogen for fuel cell buses. Hydrogen is stored by reaction with a metal to form a hydride (exothermic reaction).

Audi partnering with Climeworks on CO2 direct air capture and storage

Green Car Congress

The CO 2 molecules react through natural mineralization processes with the basalt rock and are converted to carbonates over a period of several years, thus permanently storing the CO 2 underground. Furthermore, the rock in Iceland has the ideal composition for storing large amounts of CO 2.
