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.

Argonne-led team develops new low-cost cobalt-based catalyst for PEM electrolysis

Green Car Congress

A multi-institutional team led by the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) has developed a low-cost cobalt-based catalyst for the production of hydrogen in a proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE). volts (Nafion 212 membrane) and low degradation in an accelerated stress test.

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

Green Car Congress

Earlier this year, PNNL researchers revealed that using EEMPA in power plants could slash the price of carbon capture to 19% lower than standard industry costs—the lowest documented price of carbon capture. The authors’ assessment identified further cost savings, in that CO 2 captured by EEMPA can be converted to methane on site.

IRENA sees renewable hydrogen at least cost-possible within decade

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen produced with renewable electricity could compete on costs with fossil fuel alternatives by 2030, according to a new report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). A combination of falling costs for solar and wind power, improved performance as well as economies of scale for electrolyzers could make it possible.

Ford compares new low-cost EV platform to Rivian and Tesla, says rivals will turn to China

Baua Electric

Ford CEO Jim Farley compared its new low-cost EV platform to Rivian and Tesla. Farley revealed the Skunkworks team was developing a low-cost EV platform for its next-gen EVs in February on a media call with investors. Smaller, more affordable vehicles use fewer battery materials, reducing costs and improving margins.

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.

“Low cost, high performance”: Bhavish Aggarwal calls his EV battery ‘Bharat Cell’ a gamechanger for India – ET Auto

Baua Electric

Batteries make up a significant part of the cost of manufacturing a unit electric vehicle. Currently, the 2170 battery is dominating the market and it is expected that 4680 will soon replace it, particularly because of its added advantages – more energy capacity, fast charging abilities, and low cost (both manufacturing and retail).
