Deployment of Hydrogen Fuel Cell-Powered Trucks Will Require Fueling Networks, Clear Business Cases
Leaked Document Lifts Lid on EU’s Green Deal ‘Recovery’ Package; The EU has reshaped its Green Deal into a recovery package, with huge support for renewables, green hydrogen and EVs set to be announced next week.
The EU package contemplates the adoption of a contract for difference (CFD) system for carbon for green hydrogen projects, effectively acting as a hedge against carbon prices. Such a system would see green hydrogen users bid the level at which they can offset a ton of carbon with their project and still make a return. If the carbon price moves above that strike price, they would pay back the difference. If the carbon price fell below that level, the EU would make up the shortfall, just like a renewable CFD system based on power prices.

Air Liquide adds high capacity hydrogen station with dual filling positions for vehicles in the U.S.
The high capacity station by Air Liquide has the capability of performing simultaneous fills through two fully equipped fueling positions at 700 bar, as well as dispensing up to 1,000 kg/day, to fill around 250 vehicles per day, greatly increasing current market capacities. To successfully optimize space, Air Liquide’s new generation station has a compact design (typically 24.6m2), reducing the overall footprint and allowing for an easier installation.

“No one can achieve the hydrogen economy alone.”
There's a lot of buzz about 'green' hydrogen, but actual projects are slow in coming
"What we aren't seeing is a sort of broad-based opportunity to invest in hydrogen projects and infrastructure. The policy mechanisms that would need to support that sort of investment aren't in place."
