    Raven SR, Chevron & Hyzon to Produce Hydrogen in California

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    16 Jan, 2023, 3:30 am

    Renewable fuels company Raven SR, Chevron New Energies and Hyzon Motors are collaborating to commercialize operations of a green waste-to-hydrogen production facility in Richmond intended to supply hydrogen fuel to transportation markets in Northern California

    The facility will be owned by a newly formed company, Raven SR S1. Raven SR will be the operator of the facility, which is targeted to come online in the first quarter of 2024. Chevron holds a 50% equity stake in Raven SR 1. Raven SR holds a 30% stake and Hyzon owns the remaining 20%.

    To produce the hydrogen, the project is expected to divert up to 99 wet tons of green and food waste per day from Republic Services’ West Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill into its non-combustion Steam/CO2 Reforming process, producing up to 2,400 metric-tons per year of renewable hydrogen. Diversion of this organic waste will help fulfill California’s SB 1383 mandates, and will potentially avoid up to 7,200 metric-tons per year of CO2 emissions from the landfill. In addition, Raven’s technology uses no fresh water, an important element given drought risks in California, and uses less electricity to power its units than competing processes. The project is expected to produce at least 60% of its own electricity by upgrading the currently permitted and zoned landfill gas electric generators at the landfill, further reducing both the current air emissions and the need for grid power for its non-combustion process.

    Chevron plans to market its share of the hydrogen in Bay Area and Northern California fueling stations, enabling the energy transition to zero emission vehicles. Hyzon, a global supplier of fuel cell electric commercial vehicles, plans to provide refueling for hydrogen fuel cell trucks at a hydrogen hub in Richmond.

    Renewable hydrogen and solar energy start up H2PLT has begun operations to create Spain's first green hydrogen microgeneration network. Founded and promoted by the entrepreneur Sisco Sapena, president and founder of the public company Lleida.net, H2PLT has developed a proprietary model that allows innovative uses of hydrogen in underdeveloped applications, such as its use as a vector for reelectrification and application in electro-power stations or hydro generators.

    H2PLT already has 80 hectares in the El Pedernoso Solar Park (Cuenca, Spain) and from next year will have the potential to generate 2.5 tons of hydrogen per day and a capacity of up to 40 MW.

    The company seeks to promote electrified mobility and its innovative uses through "H2aX" applications and the development of small photovoltaic power plants dedicated exclusively to the generation of green hydrogen, through a model that can be replicated in a modular way in different parts of Spain and Europe.

    To this end, it uses small photovoltaic farms and surplus solar electricity to manufacture green hydrogen by electrolysis. The hydrogen is stored and converted into electricity when needed by a fuel cell.

    Its business model is based on the sale of hydrogen created by solar energy, its conversion into electricity during the night and sale to the wholesale market or through the network of own gas stations and hydrogenerators that will be created.

    Onderzoekers produceren waterstof door planten te imiteren
    Artikel van admin • Gisteren om 12:32

    Waterstof maken door planten te imiteren: onderzoekers aan de University of Michigan hebben een nieuwe techniek ontwikkeld om met kunstmatige fotosynthese waterstof te produceren. De methode is vele malen efficiënter dan zijn voorgangers, en kan ook zeewater omzetten in waterstof.

    De wetenschap doet regelmatig inspiratie op in de natuur. Voor de productie van waterstof kijken onderzoekers onder andere naar het belangrijkste chemische proces in planten: fotosynthese. Planten gebruiken fotosynthese om energie uit zonlicht te halen. Wetenschappers van de University of Michigan beschrijven in het wetenschappelijk tijdschrift Nature een nieuwe methode om energie in de vorm van waterstof uit zonlicht te halen.

    De techniek imiteert een van de eerste stappen in het fotosyntheseproces, waarbij water uit elkaar wordt getrokken in waterstof en zuurstof. De bladeren van planten gebruiken daar chlorofyl voor, dat planten hun groene kleur geeft. De wetenschappers werken met een halfgeleider van indium-gallium-nitride, dat ook in blauwe en groene led-lampen te vinden is. Met een grote lens wordt zonlicht gebundeld op de halfgeleider, waar het water uit elkaar valt. Bubbeltjes waterstof borrelen vervolgens een gasfles in.

    Tien keer efficiënter
    In de buitenlucht gebeurt dit tien keer efficiënter dan vergelijkbare methodes die met zonlicht water splitsen, schrijven de wetenschappers. In het lab is de efficiëntie van hun proefopstelling 9 procent, wat wil zeggen dat 9 procent van de energie uit zonlicht in de brandstof terecht komt. Dit komt doordat de ontwikkelde halfgeleider veel hogere temperaturen aankan dan doorsnee halfgeleiders. De zeer felle straal zonlicht versnelt het omzettingsproces aanzienlijk.

    De technologie voor het produceren van waterstof met fotosynthese staat nog in de kinderschoenen. Commerciële toepassingen zijn voorlopig nog niet in zicht. “We geloven dat kunstmatige fotosynthese-installaties uiteindelijk veel efficiënter kunnen werken dan natuurlijke fotosynthese. Dat biedt een pad naar CO2-neutraliteit”, zegt onderzoeker Zetian Mi van de University of Michigan.

    Extra bijzonder aan de nieuwe methode is dat deze niet alleen met schoon, gedestilleerd water werkt, maar dat er ook kraanwater én zeewater voor kan worden gebruikt. Dit is voor grootschalige toepassingen mogelijk belangrijk. Door energie op te wekken met zeewater, wordt er geen extra beslag gelegd op het schaarse zoetwater. Zo kan deze techniek ook ingezet worden in droge, woestijnachtige kustgebieden waar er weinig drinkwater, maar wel zonlicht in overvloed is.

    Patents Indicate shift towards Hydrogen Electrolysis Technologies

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    19 Jan, 2023, 3:30 am

    Hydrogen technology development is shifting towards low-emissions solutions such as electrolysis, according to a joint study of patents by the European Patent Office and the International Energy Agency. The report is the first of its kind and uses global patent data to provide comprehensive up-to-date analysis of innovation in all hydrogen technologies. It covers the full range of technologies, from hydrogen supply to storage, distribution and transformation, as well as end-use applications.

    The study presents the major trends in hydrogen technologies from 2011 to 2020, measured in terms of international patent families (IPFs), each of which represents a high-value invention for which patent applications have been filed at two or more patent offices worldwide. The report finds that global patenting in hydrogen is led by the European Union and Japan, which account for 28% and 24% respectively of all IPFs filed in this period, with significant growth in the past decade. The leading countries in Europe are Germany (11% of the global total), France (6%), and the Netherlands (3%).

    The United States, with 20% of all hydrogen-related patents, is the only major innovation centre to see international hydrogen patent applications decline in the past decade. International patenting activity in hydrogen technologies remained modest in South Korea and China but is on the rise. In addition to these five main innovation centres, other countries generating significant volumes of hydrogen patents include the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Canada.

    Hydrogen production technologies accounted for the largest number of hydrogen patents over the 2011-2020 period. While global hydrogen production is currently almost entirely fossil-based, the patenting data shows that low-emissions innovations generated more than twice the number of international patents across all segments of the hydrogen value chain than established technologies.

    Technologies motivated by climate concerns accounted for nearly 80% of all patents related to hydrogen production in 2020, with growth driven chiefly by a sharp increase of innovation in electrolysis. The most innovative regions are now competing to host the first industrial roll-out phase, with the data suggesting that Europe is gaining an edge as a location for investment in new electrolyser manufacturing capacity.

    Among hydrogen’s many potential end-use applications, the automotive sector has long been the focus for innovation, and patenting in this sector continues to grow, led mainly by Japan. Similar momentum is not yet visible in other end-use applications, despite concerted policy and media attention in recent years on hydrogen’s potential to decarbonise long-distance transport, aviation, power generation and heating. National net zero emissions pledges cannot be achieved without addressing unabated fossil fuel use in these sectors. One bright spot is a recent uptick in patenting for the use of hydrogen to decarbonise steel production – possibly in response to the post-Paris Agreement consensus that the sector needs radical solutions to cut emissions quickly.

    For established hydrogen technologies, innovation is dominated by the European chemical industry, whose expertise in this sector has also given it a head start in climate-motivated technologies such as electrolysis and fuel cells. Automotive companies are also active, and not just for vehicle technology. Behind them, universities and public research institutes generated 13.5% of all hydrogen-related international patents in 2011-2020, led by French and Korean institutions, with a focus on low-emissions hydrogen production methods such as electrolysis.

    The study finds that more than half of the USD 10 billion of venture capital investment into hydrogen firms in 2011-2020 went to start-ups with patents, despite them making up less than a third of the start-ups in the report’s data set. Holding a patent is a good indicator of whether a start-up will keep attracting finance: more than 80% of late-stage investment in hydrogen start-ups in 2011-2020 went to companies that had already filed a patent application in areas such as electrolysis, fuel cells, or low-emissions methods for producing hydrogen from gas.

    Technologies motivated by climate change concerns accounted for nearly 80% of all patents related to hydrogen production in 2020, new analysis shows.

    Windparken in Noordzee helpen Tata Steel: eerder staal met groene waterstof
    Door THEO BESTEMAN

    Updated 1 uur geleden
    Vandaag, 08:50
    in FINANCIEEL

    AMSTERDAM - Tata Steel Nederland kan in IJmuiden waarschijnlijk eerder staal gaan produceren met schonere waterstof, gemaakt van energie uit windparken, nu het van steenkool als hittebron af gaat op het complex met straks 130 meter hoge bebouwing.

    Staal maken met steenkool historie, waterstof van wind op zee moet vanaf 2030 nieuwe aanjager worden van schonere productie. ANP/HH

    Voor de start in 2030 rekende Tata Steel erop nog aardgas te moeten gebruiken, bij gebrek aan voldoende groene waterstof dat helemaal geen CO2-uitstoot. Maar dat aanbod van waterstof neemt snel toe. Tata Steel denkt die energiedrager vooral van windparken op de Noordzee te betrekken. „Of anders importeren we waterstof via Nederlandse havens zoals Amsterdam en Rotterdam. Waterstof kunnen we ook van nieuwe elektrolysers op land verkrijgen. Het aanbod groeit, de technologie gaat snel”, aldus Jeroen Klumper, directeur Duurzame Transitie bij Tata Steel.

    BEKIJK OOK:
    Energie-eilanden Noordzee nieuwe stopcontacten voor groene stroom thuis

    De overgang van kolen naar groene waterstof gaat pas door als het vloeibaar ruwijzer van dezelfde kwaliteit is als die uit de fabrieken in IJmuiden komt, aldus Tata. Er gaat ijzererts de Hoogovens in en er komt vloeibaar ruwijzer uit.

    De waterstoftechnologie wordt steeds breder gebruikt, aldus Klumper. Tata Steel levert nu 7 miljoen ton staal per jaar. Het heeft daarvoor 4 gigawatt aan elektriciteit nodig.

    Subsidie nodig
    Het bedrijf polst daartoe momenteel toekomstige aanbieders van groene waterstof. Op de Noordzee plaatsen zij komende jaren nieuwe windmolenparken. „De bedrijven willen leveren, we voeren gesprekken”, aldus de directie.

    Tata Steel is nu de grootste uitstoter van CO2 en stikstof in Nederland. Zijn ovens en de Vattenfall-installatie ernaast stoten bijna 12 miljoen megaton CO2 uit. Het zette zomer 2021 de knop om: productie met staal wordt vervangen door elektrische ovens, met groene waterstof opgewekt uit zon en wind als nieuwe energiedrager.

    BEKIJK OOK:
    Provincie veegt milieuproblemen van het bord van Tata Steel

    Om met waterstof concurrerend te kunnen produceren, moet de prijs wel fors omlaag. Staal gemaakt met waterstof is substantieel duurder dan staal gemaakt met het vuur van steenkool. Het ruwijzer komt vloeibaar uit de hoogovens en gaat in vloeibare vorm naar de staalfabriek.

    Ceo Hans van den Berg hoopt dat de Nederlandse overheid in de overgangsfase het financiële verschil wil helpen verminderen. De Duitse overheid bijvoorbeeld subsidieert de plannen van concurrent Salzgitter voor 50%. „De gesprekken hierover met het ministerie van Economische Zaken lopen nog.”

    EU geeft meer steun
    Die steun is steeds waarschijnlijker aan het worden. De Amerikaanse overheid investeert $348 miljard in bedrijven die vergroenen. Dankzij deze subsidiepot produceren concurrenten veel goedkoper. In Texas is bijna sprake van negatieve prijzen voor waterstof. Europa kondigde deze week aan daar een groot steunpakket tegenover te stellen.

    Ford stapt als eerste klant in ’groen’ staal van Tata Steel Nederland

    Van den Berg: „Er is veel vraag naar groen staal. Ford heeft zich al gecommitteerd. Veel klanten hebben zich bij ons gemeld, we zijn in gesprek”, zegt hij. „Het is als een trechter: naarmate we verder ontwikkelen, komt er meer kennis beschikbaar over technologie en producten. Dan zullen meer bedrijven op basis van die kennis aan willen meedoen.”

    De echte investeringsbeslissing voor de overgang van Tata op waterstof is nog niet gevallen, aldus Klumper. „Veel is nog niet bekend. Maar als we zoals in gewone projecten op alle feiten van alle onderdelen moeten wachten, dan halen we onze deadline van 2030 niet. Daarom doen we aantal dingen gelijktijdig. Zodat we onze doelstelling halen.”

    Zweedse concurrentie
    Het bedrijf aan de Noordzee ontwikkelt technologie in onbekend terrein en met grote haast. Het Openbaar Ministerie doet onderzoek, de Tweede Kamer eist met de provincie snelle afname van schadelijke uitstoot.

    Het Zweedse SSAB maakt bovendien al staal uit waterstof. Tata Steel Nederland heeft voor de ontwikkeling van de eigen waterstofsystemen - waarvoor nog geen standaarden zijn - en de fabrieksschetsen voor de eerste fase €65 miljoen uitgetrokken.

    Er zijn echter nog geen definitieve vergunningen, die zouden in 2024 komen. Tata hoopt met tijdelijke goedkeuring door te kunnen ontwikkelen.

    ’Tata Steel raakt achterop bij Scandinavische groei’

    HyCC gaat mogelijk in IJmuiden een fabriek van 100 megawatt opzetten op het terrein van Tata Steel. Jaarlijks moet dat 15.500 ton groene waterstof opleveren. Tata Steel weet nu al dat dit te weinig is: voor staalproductie die wereldwijd concurrerend moet zijn, zal veel meer waterstof nodig zijn.

    Voor de schoonmaak van het Tata Steel-terrein in IJmuiden waar de nieuwe installaties moeten komen, en om het terrein bouwrijp te maken, heef Tata Steel €300 miljoen gereserveerd. De bouw van de ontstoffings- en Denox-installatie voor zijn pelletfabriek kost rond €200 miljoen.

    Voor overige investeringen is Tata Steel Nederland, als een zelfstandig onderdeel, op zichzelf aangewezen, benadrukt ceo Hans van den Berg. Hij rekent erop dat het miljardenproject voor groen staal op financiering vanuit de overheid kan steunen. In Europa is zo’n 40% aan subsidie niet ongewoon, aldus het bedrijf.

    Tata Steel presenteerde donderdag in de Johan Cruijff ArenA verfijndere ontwerptekeningen van de fabrieken, met gebouwen die 60 meter hoog reiken, en elektriciteitsopslag op eigen terrein. Daar komt ook een grote recyclaar voor alle schroot. „Het aangezicht van Tata Steel, de skyline gaat enorm vervanderen”, aldus Laura Buil, manager project engineering.

    ZeroAvia Tests Dornier 228 with Hydrogen-Electric Engines

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :

    Zero-emission flight took a giant step forward today with ZeroAvia flying the largest aircraft in the world to be powered by a hydrogen-electric engine. The leader in zero-emission aviation took to the skies for the maiden flight of its 19-seat Dornier 228 testbed aircraft, retrofitted with a full-size prototype hydrogen-electric powertrain on the left wing of the aircraft. The flight took place from the company’s R&D facility at Cotswold Airport in Gloucestershire, UK, and lasted 10 minutes. The aircraft completed taxi, take-off, a full pattern circuit, and landing. The landmark flight forms part of the HyFlyer II project, a major R&D programme backed by the UK Government’s flagship ATI Programme, which targets development of a 600kW powertrain to support 9-19 seat aircraft worldwide with zero-emission flight.

    The twin-engine aircraft was retrofitted to incorporate ZeroAvia’s hydrogen-electric engine on its left wing, which then operated alongside a single Honeywell TPE-331 stock engine on the right. In this testing configuration, the hydrogen-electric powertrain comprises two fuel cell stacks, with lithium-ion battery packs providing peak power support during take-off and adding additional redundancy for safe testing. In this testbed configuration, hydrogen tanks and fuel cell power generation systems were housed inside the cabin. In a commercial configuration, external storage would be used and the seats restored.

    All systems performed as expected. This is the largest ZeroAvia engine tested to date, and places the company on the direct path to a certifiable configuration to be finalized and submitted for certification in 2023, with this programme also serving as key to unlocking speedy technology development for larger aircraft. ZeroAvia’s 2-5 MW powertrain programme, already underway, will scale the clean engine technology for up to 90-seat aircraft, with further expansion into narrowbody aircraft demonstrators over the next decade.

    Of note, this flight test campaign is being conducted under a full Part 21 flight permit with the UK CAA, which is a much more stringent set of requirements compared to the E-Conditions framework ZeroAvia used for its 6-seat prototype test flights in the prior years. This signifies the maturity of the company’s processes and design approaches and its readiness to proceed towards full commercial certification of its powerplants.

    ZeroAvia will now work towards its certifiable configuration in order to deliver commercial routes using the technology by 2025. The Dornier 228 will conduct a series of test flights from Kemble and later demonstration flights from other airports. Almost exactly two years ago, ZeroAvia conducted the first of more than 30 flights of a six-seat Piper Malibu aircraft using a 250kW hydrogen-electric powertrain.

    This latest achievement follows ZeroAvia’s previous world-first milestones, starting with 6-seat prototype flights of a Piper M-Class airframe in 2019, and the world’s first commercial-scale 6-seater hydrogen-electric powered flight in September 2020. The 2020 prototype was a part of the HyFlyer I programme in the UK. Unlike the previous tech demonstrator programme, ZeroAvia’s 600kW engine being developed under HyFlyer II is a commercial-intent programme.

    EU Innovation Fund Supports RWE’s Waste-to-Hydrogen FUREC

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    23 Jan, 2023, 3:30 am

    RWE's FUREC project, which aims to produce circular and green hydrogen from non-recyclable municipal solid waste in Limburg, the Netherlands, received a EUR 108 million grant from the EU’s Innovation Fund.

    As part of the FUREC project, RWE plans to build a pre-treatment plant in Zevenellen, Limburg, to convert non-recyclable municipal solid waste into solid recovered fuel pellets. The plant will process about 700,000 tonnes of MSW per year, of which about 50% will be of biogenic origin (e.g. textiles, paper). This is equivalent to the amount of MSW produced by approximately two million people each year.

    The feedstock pellets from the pre-treatment plant will then be converted into hydrogen in a second RWE plant which the company is to build at the Chemelot industrial park in Limburg. The plant is expected to produce 54.000 tonnes of hydrogen per year. For comparison: This is equivalent to the output of a 700-megawatt offshore wind farm with coupled electrolysers.

    By using this hydrogen, the Chemelot industrial park in Limburg will be able to reduce its natural gas consumption by more than 280 million cubic metres per year. This corresponds to half of the annual domestic gas consumption in Limburg. This will save around 400,000 tonnes of CO2 per year. The CO2 released during the hydrogen production is captured and can be stored or possibly used as a raw material by industry in the future. The hydrogen will either be marketed locally in the Chemelot industrial park or transported to industrial companies in Rotterdam and the Ruhr area. FUREC is preparing the necessary grid connections to the hydrogen and CO2 infrastructure.

    The funding by the EU Innovation Fund marks a key milestone for advancing the FUREC project, which will require an investment of more than EUR 600 million to complete. With the funding commitment secured, RWE forges ahead with project development at full speed, including seeking the necessary approvals and permits. In parallel, the company is starting to contract preferred suppliers for the plants, potential customers for hydrogen and CO2, and companies that can provide waste of suitable quantity and quality. A final investment decision is to be made in 2024.

    FUREC is a game changer in CO2 reduction, hydrogen production and waste management: it facilitates unlocking the massive potential of the circular economy to meet the EU’s climate targets. RWE sees FUREC as a blueprint for future roll-outs at other sites in the Netherlands and Europe. The province of Limburg, where Chemelot is located, has followed the development of FUREC with great interest in recent years.
