Royal Green Hydrogen Summit: Kings Unite for Clean Energy Revolution
Copenhagen, Wednesday, 20 November 2024.
In a historic meeting this week, the Dutch King Willem-Alexander and Norway’s Crown Prince Haakon explore groundbreaking green hydrogen initiatives. Their collaboration signals a major shift in European energy strategy, focusing on maritime decarbonisation and cross-border partnerships. As these royal powerhouses unite, they’re not just discussing clean energy - they’re shaping the future of European energy independence.
Green Hydrogen's Next Leap: Why Standards Matter More Than Ever
Abu Dhabi, Wednesday, 20 November 2024.
Southern Mediterranean Countries are poised to revolutionise Europe’s green energy future, but there’s a catch. I’ve found that without unified standards, this golden opportunity could slip away. Think of it as building a massive Lego set without instructions - it just won’t work. The upcoming EU-Mediterranean collaboration could unlock billions in clean energy potential, making this the perfect moment to get involved in tomorrow’s energy revolution.
Saudi Arabia's Mega Green Hydrogen Plant: The Future of Clean Energy Takes Shape
Neom, Tuesday, 19 November 2024.
In a groundbreaking development, NEOM’s $8.4 billion green hydrogen facility is now 60% complete. Set to become the world’s largest, this plant will transform 4 GW of solar and wind power into 600 tonnes of carbon-free hydrogen daily by 2026. With the clean hydrogen market projected to quadruple to $640 billion by 2030, this project positions Saudi Arabia at the forefront of sustainable energy innovation. I find it fascinating how this single facility could offset emissions equivalent to removing 700,000 cars from our roads.
Wind-Powered Revolution: Canada's $8.5bn Green Hydrogen Megaproject Promises Zero-Carbon Future
Montreal, Monday, 18 November 2024.
I’m excited about this groundbreaking partnership between Abraxas Power and EDF Group that’s set to transform Newfoundland into a green hydrogen powerhouse. The 3-GW project will harness wind energy to produce 200,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually, potentially offsetting 1.5 million tonnes of CO2. What’s particularly fascinating is the scale - it’s not just about hydrogen production, but also about creating a million tonnes of green ammonia yearly. This project, slated for completion in 2030, represents a significant leap towards decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors and creating hundreds of skilled jobs in Canada.
Green Hydrogen Revolution: McDermott's Bold 2026 Dutch Energy Leap
Netherlands, Monday, 18 November 2024.
I’m excited to share how McDermott is transforming the Netherlands’ energy landscape with a groundbreaking green hydrogen project. By 2026, this initiative won’t just pipe clean energy - it’ll be a crucial stepping stone towards the country’s ambitious 2030 climate goals. Drawing from 60 years of hydrogen expertise, McDermott’s integrated approach from concept to completion showcases how traditional energy giants are pivoting to lead the renewable revolution. Think of it as building tomorrow’s energy bridges today, with every pipeline and terminal designed to slash carbon footprints while keeping the lights on.
Green Hydrogen's Q3 Rollercoaster: Bloom Energy's Gigawatt Deal Lights Up Struggling Sector
New York, Monday, 18 November 2024.
While the hydrogen sector stumbles with a 33% ETF decline in 2024, Bloom Energy’s massive AI data centre deal signals hope. Their record-breaking $330.4 million Q3 revenue and groundbreaking gigawatt fuel cell agreement with AEP showcases the sector’s resilience amid broader market challenges.
Iran's Green Hydrogen Revolution: From Desert Sun to Clean Energy Pioneer
Tehran, Sunday, 17 November 2024.
In a groundbreaking shift, Iran is positioning itself at the forefront of green hydrogen production, with its southern coastal city Chabahar emerging as the optimal location. Studies show the region’s solar potential could revolutionise clean energy production, though careful temperature considerations are crucial - overlooking this factor can lead to an 11.5% overestimation in production capacity. As the world races towards renewable solutions, Iran’s strategic workshop with IRENA this November marks a significant step in transforming its vast solar resources into economic opportunities.
Green Hydrogen's Rocky Road: Why 2024's 40% Market Plunge Isn't the End
Global, Sunday, 17 November 2024.
Despite a dramatic 40% market decline through November 2024, green hydrogen’s future remains promising. While high production costs and interest rates currently challenge investors, emerging markets and policy support are creating unexpected opportunities. I’ll guide you through why this transformative technology isn’t just surviving - it’s evolving.
India's Green Hydrogen Revolution: Cheaper Than Grey, Cleaner Than Ever
India, Friday, 15 November 2024.
