Further exciting topics summarized at the end of the week:
FVEE + + + Everfuel + + + Teco 2030 +++ Funding for fuel cell cars +++ US Department of Energy funds H2 development with $56 million +++ Dates
The Norwegian company Teco 2030 and the infrastructure company Implenia Norway want to work together to develop hydrogen solutions for the construction industry. They have now received funding of 15,6 million crowns (1,52 million euros) from the Norwegian state-owned company Enova. The sum will be made available over a period of 2,5 years from September 2021 to the end of December 2023. As part of the project, Teco will develop a fuel cell generator with a power generation capacity of 0,8 megawatts that can be used on construction sites instead of diesel generators. Delivery is scheduled for January 2023. + + + + + Everfuel A/S and Greenstat AS have signed a cooperation agreement to develop a commercially competitive hydrogen supply for emission-free mobility on rail, road and sea in Norway + + + + + The Renewable Energy Research Association (FVEE) has published recommendations for the targeted further development of the National Hydrogen Strategy. As an energy source, green hydrogen must slowly but steadily increase its share in the energy system because the generation capacities as well as the technologies on the application side have to undergo enormous scaling before broad market penetration begins. + + + + + The DEKRA eV is now a member of the “Hydrogen Europe” association. DEKRA wants to bring its expertise there as a testing, testing and certification company. The industry association includes around 260 companies and 27 national associations that jointly promote and further develop areas of application for the energy source hydrogen and fuel cell technology. +++++ The Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) supports the purchase of climate-friendly fuel cell cars in fleets. A total of up to 15 million euros is available for this purpose. In this way, the BMVI supports market activation for products that have reached technical market maturity but are not yet competitive on the market, as a preliminary stage of the market ramp-up. At least 10 vehicles must be procured per application. The application with the highest number of vehicles applied for receives top priority. Applications can be submitted until August 16.08.2021, XNUMX. +++++ This US Department of Energy (DOE) is funding 31 projects with $52,5 million (44,4 million euros) to advance the development of clean hydrogen technologies and the recently announced “Hydrogen Energy Earthshot"-DoE's initiative. The goal is to reduce costs and “accelerate breakthroughs in clean hydrogen.”
