Green technology developer Envision Energy has commissioned the world’s largest and most advanced green hydrogen and ammonia plant. The Shanghai-based company said the production facility, developed in its hydrogen park in Chifeng, China, is also the first in the world delivering green ammonia at industrial scale and the first of its kind to be fully […]
A team of scientists from Slovenia, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina is working on a hydrogen project based on seawater electrolysis. Dalibor Karačić, Nejc Hodnik, Igor Pašti, and Sanjin Gutić believe their research can deliver a solution fit for commercial use, unlike many hydrogen technologies in development around the world. To unlock the sector’s potential, […]
Greece’s Alternate Minister of Economy and Finance Nikos Papathanasis has launched an open call for the installation and operation of a high-efficiency combined heat and power (CHP) unit using fuel cells powered by green hydrogen. The site for the pilot project is in the Western Macedonia coal region in the country’s north. It is part […]
Serbia’s natural gas transmission system operator, Transportgas Srbija, has invited bids for the preparation of a study on the technical feasibility of transporting hydrogen through the gas network. The study should assess the quantities of hydrogen that can be transported, as well as the impact of blending hydrogen with natural gas on the transmission system […]
Despite early efforts to develop green hydrogen and its first regulatory framework, Greece finds itself on a steep curve. The government has presented the first law on hydrogen and renewable gases in parliament. At the same time, refineries and other industries are working on projects that will determine green hydrogen’s cost-effectiveness. However, a significant obstacle […]
The Slovenian Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Energy has invited bids for preparing a draft action plan to achieve the hydrogen targets from the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP). The document is intended to guide the development of hydrogen technologies in Slovenia until 2030, with an outlook to 2040. Hydrogen is expected to […]
The Council of the European Union struck a provisional agreement with negotiators from the European Parliament regarding the European Commission’s proposal to simplify the CBAM carbon border tax. The initial levy, which would be gradually increased year by year until it matches the EU ETS price, is coming into force on January 1. The administration […]
After contacts with Russia, Slovenia and China regarding nuclear energy, and the start of cooperation with France, Serbia is expecting to sign an agreement with South Korean state-owned power utility KHNP, involving hydrogen as well. Among the other options are joint activities in the segment of small modular reactors. Like many countries in the Balkans, […]
Nuclear power plants have the highest construction cost overrun and the longest time delays of all energy projects. In the clean energy sector, the worst marks for violation of set construction cost and timelines go to hydrogen, carbon capture and storage as well as gas power plants, according to a study by the Boston University […]
The North Macedonian section of the gas interconnector with Greece is expected to be completed by early 2027. The construction contract was signed by the Ministry of Energy, Mining and Mineral Resources, domestic contractor Rapid Build and the country’s gas transmission system operator Nomagas. The construction of the gas pipeline connecting North Macedonia with Greece […]
