Hydrogen projects update - edition 6
Hydrogen Economist looks at the new hydrogen projects added to our database and the progress made on existing developments
Seventeen new projects were added to our database in the last two weeks, across green and blue hydrogen. Of the new projects, seven are in Europe (Denmark, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain & the UK), four are in Asia-Pacific (Australia & China), three in North America (Canada & the US) and three in the Middle East (Oman & the UAE). In the UK, Neptune Energy has submitted an application to the Oil & Gas Authority for a CO2 appraisal and storage licence for the UK Southern North Sea, near its producing Cygnus gas field. The DelpHYnus project would transport and store CO2 from the South Humber Industrial area and include production facilities for blue hydrogen
