The HPEM2GAS consortium is organising a final project event on 12 February 2018 in Emdem, Germany.
|
|
Distributed energy generation using renewable power sources and advanced energy storage technologies are of paramount importance for the future energy system. Hydrogen will assume in the future increased environmental and societal relevance in addressing energy issues, pollution and global warming.
|
The HPEM2GAS project is developing a low cost PEM electrolyser optimised for grid management through both stack and balance of plant innovations, culminating in a six month field testing of an advanced 180 kW system. Several strategies have been applied to lower the overall cost with the aim to enable widespread utilization of the technology. These primarily concern a three-fold increase in current density (resulting in the proportional decrease in capital costs) whilst maintaining cutting edge efficiency and a material use minimisation approach.

The energy of tomorrow coming to your city today: SARTA rolls out unique Borrow a Hydrogen Fuel Cell Bus program
|
CANTON, OHIO, UNITED STATES, October 8, 2018 -- Kirt Conrad, CEO of the Stark Area Regional Transit Authority (SARTA), believes hydrogen fuel cells (HFC) are the future of automotive, commercial, and public transportation. In fact, he believes it so much he’s willing to lend any transit agency in the country one of SARTA’s hydrogen fuel cell-powered buses for free. All an agency has to do to is call and ask. The Central Midlands Transit Authority in Columbia, South Carolina will be the first agency to borrow a bus.

Hydrogen is the missing link in the global energy system transition by 2050, as required by the targets in the Paris Agreement’ according to the report launched on 6 September 2018 in Bonn by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).
|
|
‘Renewable electricity can be used to produce hydrogen, which can in turn provide energy to sectors like industry, buildings and power, transport otherwise difficult to decarbonise only through electrification. Hydrogen produced through an electrolyser from renewable electricity could also facilitate the integration of high levels of variable renewable energy into the energy system, offering a flexible load and providing grid balancing services.
|
|
While key hydrogen technologies are maturing, scale-up can however yield the necessary technology cost reductions’ underlines the IRENA report.
|
|
Over the last 10 years, FCH JU has supported research and innovation activities to increase efficiency and reduce costs of hydrogen production from water electrolysis, while exploring on large-scale the hydrogen capacity to harness power from renewables and integrate them into the global energy system.

The HyBalance project inaugurated on Monday, 3 September 2018, an advanced facility for the production of renewable hydrogen in Hobro, Denmark. The hydrogen is produced from water electrolysis, enabling the storage of renewable electricity from wind turbines and at the same time balancing the electricity grid. The hydrogen produced will be used for greening the industry and transportation sectors. The project was initiated in 2016, with funding from the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH JU) and the support of the Danish EUDP program.
