๐ After years of research and development, Belgian start-up Solhyd is set to revolutionise the renewable energy sector with its new hydrogen-producing solar panel. This technology promises to transform the way hydrogen is generated and used, especially in a context where sustainability and carbon reduction are priorities.
๐ธ Context:
Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant element in the universe. Composed of a single electron and a single proton, it has been used for decades in industries such as agri-food, metallurgy, and chemistry. However, hydrogen production has relied heavily on fossil fuels, accounting for 95% of total production according to Futura data. To change this trend, Solhyd has developed an innovative solar panel that generates green hydrogen using only solar energy.

๐ From autumn 2024, ten additional hydrogen buses will run in North Friesland (Germany), expanding the transport network fleet from two to twelve vehicles. GP JOULE continues to support the regional energy transition with this further expansion.
๐ธ Context:
The buses of the manufacturer CaetanoBus use locally produced green hydrogen and will be operated by Autokraft GmbH and Rohde Verkehrsbetriebe GmbH. In the joint project, eFarming GmbH involves 20 shareholders and companies, including numerous community wind farms and solar parks.

๐ฑ #hydrogen #greenenergy #AsturiasH2Valley #EDP #Aboรฑo
With a view to 2026, when it is expected to be fully operational, Asturias H2 Valley was presented on Wednesday, EDP’s project to build a green hydrogen plant in Aboรฑo, which, according to the company, will also qualify for the aid lines that the Ministry of Ecological Transition has also opened this week to promote ‘hydrogen valleys’, i.e. production and supply centres of this energy source in industrial areas. One of the requirements to receive this aid is to achieve the commitment to purchase at least 60% of the production by consumers and the Asturian initiative has them.
๐ธ Context:
It is Arcelor Mittal and the Cementos Tudela Veguรญn factory as the main buyers, because the “industrial pole of Avilรฉs” is also included in a generic way in the list of which the Ministry gave account at the beginning of July when it approved the first aid to the Asturian project. One of the criteria is geographical proximity to reduce transport costs. In the long term, the Asturian initiative will be connected to H2Med, the first major European hydrogen corridor, linking infrastructures from Portugal and Spain through France to Germany. H2Med received the first boost on Tuesday with the permission granted to Enagรกs for the first connections.

๐ Advanced Ionics, based in Wisconsin and backed by BP and Repsol, has developed a new class of electrolyzer that uses waste or process heat already present in industrial facilities to help reduce costs and electricity needs. This innovative technology has the potential to make hydrogen production more affordable.
Context:
The startup is moving forward on two pilot projects, one with Repsol and the other with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E), to bring its technology to market and improve efficiency in hydrogen production.

๐ Having passed the procedure without allegations, the Burgos City Council is already working on the project competition with the aim of erecting a “representative” building. The study of detail of the plot of 10,000 square meters chosen for this action, located between Sorbona and Villadiego streets of the San Amaro campus of the UBU, has the way clear for final approval by not having received any allegations in the established period.
๐ธ Context:
The plot will keep its university use, but the land detail study was elaborated to decide the volumes. Thus, the Urban Planning area will now be able to continue with the entrusted work.
