The Hydrogen Stream: Optimal PV-to-electrolyzer ratio in Italy is 1.8-2.1

Italian researchers say hydrogen storage offers more supply-side flexibility than battery storage, while a German consortium has developed a global hydrogen potential atlas for sustainable production and trade.

UK commits to hydrogen-to-power subsidy mechanism

The UK government announced a new business model for hydrogen, based on dispatchable power agreements available to carbon capture technologies.

The Hydrogen Stream: US government, ABI Research predict lower H2 costs

The US government says electrolysis could reduce clean-hydrogen production costs to $1/kg by 2031, while ABI Research claims the global levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) will become cost-competitive by the end of this decade, dropping to $2.50/kg.

Global hydrogen atlas shows potential import countries for Germany

Researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems have analyzed the techno-economic potential of importing hydrogen to Germany from Brazil, Morocco, Canada, Ukraine and the United Arab Emirates.

How to combine off-grid agrivoltaics with large-scale hydrogen production

Scientists in the United Kingdom have simulated how a 1 GW off-grid agrivoltaic facility may be used to fuel hydrogen fuel electric cell vehicles across Australia, California, China, Nigeria, and Spain. Their techno-economic analysis showed that the proposed combination could provide a levelized cost of hydrogen ranging from $3.90/kg to $8.13/kg.

European Commission opens second hydrogen auction

The European Commission’s second hydrogen auction allocates €1.2 billion ($1.3 billion) for projects supporting renewable hydrogen production, with €200 million earmarked for projects with off-takers in the maritime sector. Bidding is open until Feb. 20, 2025.

The Hydrogen Stream: BMW, Exolum bet on H2 logistics

BMW Group says it will switch its Regensburg plant logistics to hydrogen by 2026, replacing electric vehicles with hydrogen-powered forklifts and tugger trains, while Exolum has launched a new business line to offer integrated logistics solutions across the hydrogen value chain

The Hydrogen Stream: new model and repository for accurate pre-feasibility studies

European researchers have told pv magazine that hydrogen production costs are often underestimated in prefeasibility studies, while the South Korean authorities have reported a rise in deals for large-scale hydrogen consumption projects.

Germany commits €24 billion to build national hydrogen network

KfW Development Bank has offered €24 billion ($25.2 billion) grant to bridge the gap between network operators’ high investment costs and the initially low revenues from network charges.

The Hydrogen Stream: UK scientists call for strict rules for H2 leakage

The Oxford Institute for Energy Studies says addressing hydrogen leakage across the supply chain is crucial to making hydrogen a sustainable energy vector. Italy, meanwhile, has unveiled its national hydrogen strategy, with a focus on its role in the Mediterranean.
