ROME - Researchers in Italy claim to have built Europe's first house powered by hydrogen fuel cells. This solution was developed by scientists at the University of Sannio in southern Italy in collaboration with private companies, Euronews reported on Thursday. "Lately, we have focussed on the issue of CO2 emissions in the environment and worked on the idea
DETROIT - The most sustainable way to make hydrogen fuel is to split water using renewable electricity—but that requires access to freshwater. Now, researchers have reported a way to make hydrogen fuel from just humidity in the air. Their electrolyzer extracts moisture from air and splits it into renewable powered electrolysis to create hydrogen. It
DETROIT - Hydrogen fuel cell maker Loop Energy said that its latest cell system can deliver better fuel economy than a diesel engine at current price levels. The Burnaby, British Columbia-based company said that - based on a pan-European diesel cost of $1.91 per liter on Sept. 5 and $10 per kg of hydrogen -
DETROIT - In her research on bone tissue engineering, Dr. Marta Cerruti has worked for years with graphene, a single sheet of carbon atoms with incredible properties—electrical conductivity and the ability to support tremendous weight. Now, her quest to improve its qualities has opened the door to a possible solution to one of the challenges
DETROIT - Last week, Canada signed onto a major energy project with Germany that, once built, will transform the windswept Port au Port Peninsula in Western Newfoundland and Labrador into a hydrogen-producing energy powerhouse. The first phase of the project involves building 164 new wind turbines in one of the windiest corners of the country. The
LONDON, UK - The use of hydrogen for long-haul trucking has been supported by H2Accelerate through new research designed to evaluate the success of the fuel type in the UK. The paper sets out that larger companies like Amazon, Nestle and DB Schenker, have the potential to drive significant market demand for hydrogen trucks and the growth of the
HOUSTON, Texas - Many oil majors and several governments around the world are betting big on the future of green hydrogen, viewing it as a major new replacement for fossil fuels. Numerous European countries, as well as international energy firms, have already invested heavily in the development of green hydrogen projects, with more looking to
SWEDEN - Swedish auto-manufacturer Volvo Trucks has started testing long-haul trucks powered by hydrogen fuel cells that only emit water vapor, the company announced this week. The trucks will be able to tow 65 tons, travel around 1000 km (620 miles) and fuel up in less than 15 minutes, the company said. They hope to begin selling the trucks
DETROIT - Hydrogen could be an important part of our future energy supply: It can be stored, transported and burned as needed. However, most of the hydrogen available today is a by-product of natural gas production, and this has to change for climate protection reasons. The best strategy so far to produce environmentally friendly "green
STAVINGER, Norway - Gas turbines are found in aircraft, trains, ships, generators, pumps, compressors and all sorts of other places. They can run on a variety of fuels, but some 90 percent of them currently run on natural gas, a fossil fuel that produces carbon dioxide when you burn it, while also escaping into the
