Regional transport association Cologne (RVK) is expanding into its own green hydrogen production. With a ceremonial groundbreaking in Mechernich, the company has launched two new hydrogen production facilities – a further facility is being built in parallel at the Bergisch Gladbach site. The facilities are scheduled to be operational by the end of 2026.
At the Mechernich site, a hydrogen refuel
The results of the “Underground Sun Storage 2030” demonstration project have been published in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. According to RAG Austria, the scientific paper documents the world’s first successful demonstration of pure hydrogen storage in a depleted natural gas reservoir.
The publication focuses on the project’s technical implementation, operational experience gain
The first electrolytic hydrogen produced in Lingen, Lower Saxony, has reached Marl in the northern Ruhr region. This means that all components of the integrated GET H2 Nukleus hydrogen project are now successfully operating together as a unified system.
As part of the ongoing commissioning process for RWE’s two 100-megawatt electrolysis plants in Lingen, initial quantities of renewable hydrogen
Everllence has received an order to supply 24 gas engines with a total output of 480 megawatts for a hyperscale data center in the USA. The data center will be operated completely off-grid and will provide power for applications in the field of artificial intelligence and cloud computing. The modular facility enables flexible power supply and can be expanded gradually as the data center's en
Uniper and Ksi Lisims LNG have signed a long-term supply and delivery agreement for liquefied natural gas (LNG). At the signing ceremony at the Canadian Embassy in Berlin, representatives of both companies were present alongside Federal Minister of Economics Katherina Reiche and Canadian Ambassador to Germany, Vera Alexander. With this agreement, Germany and Canada conclude their first long
Commenting on today's decision by the Federal Cabinet on the Grid Package, Dr. Timm Kehler, CEO of Die Gas- und Wasserstoffwirtschaft, states:
"The Grid Package addresses a real problem: the expansion of renewable energy and of the power grids must be closely interlinked. Grid expansion is the central lever, but it must not be seen as the only solution. Electrolysers are a crucial building bloc
At the end of July, Gasunie commissioned a new connection between the gas grids in the Dutch provinces of Zeeland and North Brabant. The grid link between Axel and Ossendrecht creates additional transport capacity for biomethane. This gives existing and future producers more opportunities to feed renewable gas into the long-distance pipeline grid and supply consumers in households, industry, and t
RCT Hydrogen, a Konstanz-based developer and manufacturer of systems for the production of green hydrogen, has received the purchase order and final investment decision for a turnkey 10 MW electrolyzer project at the Port of Sines in Portugal.
Following an intensive and detailed proposal phase, the final investment decision was made at the beginning of July: RCT Hydrogen will deliver a turnkey
BAYERNOIL is taking early action to pave the way for Bavaria’s connection to the hydrogen network of the future. Together with bayernets, the company has signed an agreement to reserve future hydrogen transport capacity within the H2 Cluster Ingolstadt/HyPipe two project. By doing so, BAYERNOIL is making tangible industrial demand visible through the planned transport of hydrogen between its two s
The project partners of the Nordic-Baltic Hydrogen Corridor (NBHC) presented the results of their market survey, conducted from January to April 2026, at the beginning of July. The findings indicate that demand for hydrogen transport capacity along the corridor could increase to 79.2 TWh per year by 2040, representing approximately 87 percent of the total capacity.
The participating transmissio
How can renewable energy be made available year-round? RAG Austria demonstrates in the “RAG Valley Gampern” how surplus summer electricity can be converted into hydrogen, stored, and used in winter. In the interview, Markus Mitteregger explains why electrolysis and gas storage are key to security of supply—and what framework conditions are now needed to scale up.
At the beginning of July, the
On Monday, the European Commission presented recommendations for implementing the EU Methane Regulation. With the recommended temporary waiver of sanctions and new guidance on documentation procedures, the Commission is addressing industry concerns. For Dr. Timm Kehler, CEO of Die Gas- und Wasserstoffwirtschaft, this is an important step toward clarifying outstanding implementation questions and m
