AKRON, Ohio — J.W. Didado Electric announced today that it has signed a teaming agreement with Newpoint Gas to serve as a design assist and installation partner and provide electrical and grid services work on the redevelopment of the former U.S. Department of Energy’s Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PORTS) into an advanced hydrogen generation, decarbonization and combustion clean energy manufacturing facility near Piketon, Ohio.

• OCI to start construction of 1.1 mtpa blue ammonia facility with infrastructure to double capacity to 2.2 mtpa.
• Leverages the recently signed US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to use 45Qs to reduce emissions by more than 70% on a life cycle basis compared to conventional ammonia production.
• Optimal location in Texas with easy access to both the US and export markets including Europe and Asia to serve significant expected demand for clean hydrogen.
• Complementary to OCI’s Rotterdam ammonia throughput expansion to provide the full value chain with blue ammonia, to be delivered to customers using new ammonia-fueled vessels ensuring a minimal carbon footprint.
• Project is well underway with EP contract awarded in March 2022 and long-lead equipment ordered.
• Targeted start of production in Q1 2025.

Woking, UK – Linde (NYSE:LIN; FWB:LIN) announced today that it will build a 35-megawatt PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) electrolyzer to produce green hydrogen in Niagara Falls, New York. The new plant will be the largest electrolyzer installed by Linde globally and will more than double Linde’s green liquid hydrogen production capacity in the United States.

NFI’s advanced hydrogen fuel cell-electric, zero-emission transit bus delivers increased range and reliability through simplified system integration and design, high-power batteries and streamlined battery packaging.

• Raven SR successfully trials its second stage equilibrium Steam/CO2 Reformer to produce hydrogen-rich syngas from methane at its Benicia facility in California • Non-combustion and catalyst-free design exceeds the typical performance of SMR processes
• In collaboration with Stellar J, POWER Engineers and Watlow, the Raven SR team developed the protocols used in the trial
• Highly competitive technology ready for operation in first half of 2023

• Momentum growing for new 15-liter Hydrogen engine, part of Cummins’ fuel agnostic platform.

OMAHA, Neb. — Werner Enterprises (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and logistics provider, and Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI), a global power solutions provider, announced today Werner signed a letter of intent to purchase 500 Cummins’ 15-liter hydrogen internal combustion engines upon availability. The two companies announced earlier this year, Werner Enterprises plans to validate and integrate Cummins’15-liter natural gas and Cummins’ X15H hydrogen engines, both part of Cummins’ fuel agnostic platform, into their fleet.

HOUSTON — McDermott International, together with its storage business, CB&I, has been awarded a Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) contract from Gunvor Petroleum Rotterdam B.V. for the Green Hydrogen Import Terminal project. The project is part of Gunvor’s program to transform their Rotterdam facility into a green energy hub.

• Goal is to lower the cost of green hydrogen by eliminating or drastically reducing the use of precious metals in electrolyzers.

SANTA CLARITA, Calif. — NewHydrogen, Inc. NEWH, the developer of a green hydrogen generator, today reported on the progress of its Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) catalyst that does not use iridium and is for use in proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers.
