Heliogen and Bloom Energy demonstrate production of low-cost green hydrogen; concentrated solar and high-temp electrolysis

Green Car Congress

When combined with Bloom’s proprietary solid oxide, high-temperature electrolyzer, hydrogen can be produced 45% more efficiently than low-temperature PEM and alkaline electrolyzers. Electricity accounts for nearly 80% of the cost of hydrogen from electrolysis. Source: Heliogen. —Bill Gross, founder and CEO of Heliogen.

Harvard team demonstrates new metal-free organic–inorganic aqueous flow battery; potential breakthrough for low-cost grid-scale storage

Green Car Congress

Wide-scale utilization of flow batteries is, however, limited by the abundance and cost of these materials, particularly those using redox-active metals and precious-metal electrocatalysts. But until now, flow batteries have relied on chemicals that are expensive or hard to maintain, driving up the cost of storing energy. Background.

Pierburg to supply small series hydrogen blower to BMW

Green Car Congress

The blower was developed in both a low- and high-voltage version with up to 800 volts. The project aims to reduce the currently still high manufacturing costs of these systems by using low-cost, space-saving components and a high level of integration.

PNNL team develops new low-cost method to convert captured CO2 to methane

Green Car Congress

Though it is a greenhouse gas and requires careful supply chain management, methane has many applications, ranging from household use to industrial processes, said co-author and PNNL chemist Jotheeswari Kothandaraman.

IRENA sees renewable hydrogen at least cost-possible within decade

Green Car Congress

The report— Green Hydrogen Cost Reduction: scaling up electrolyzers to meet the 1.5 C climate goal —looks at drivers for innovation and presents strategies that governments can peruse to reduce the cost of electrolyzers by 40% in the short term and by up to 80% in the long term.

ICL team assesses relative costs of carbon mitigation for 12 H2 production paths; trade-off between cost and level of decarbonization

Green Car Congress

A team at Imperial College London has examined the relative costs of carbon mitigation from a lifecycle perspective for 12 different hydrogen production techniques using fossil fuels, nuclear energy and renewable sources. Their results show a trade-off between the cost of mitigation and the proportion of decarbonization achieved.

Raven SR & Hyzon Motors to build up to 100 waste-to-hydrogen hubs

Green Car Congress

Raven supplies all the needed endothermic heat from sources outside of the reformer by recycling waste heat and/or electrical heat up to 1,200°F (649 ?C). For this reason, the California EPA has determined that the Raven SR method is a non-combustion process (cf. 22 CCR § 66260.10 Definitions and 40 CFR § 260.10 Definitions).
