Trump signed an executive order in September 2020 calling out the threat to dependence on foreign sources of critical minerals. The president also signed a similar executive […]

“Right now, hydrogen is high-carbon, and expensive—not exactly a promising state for a transformative, low-carbon fuel. And yet, alongside fuel cells, which use hydrogen to produce electricity and unlike a battery does not need to be recharged, hydrogen is increasingly seen as a promising new addition to the energy puzzle. For one, it’s a promising

“If left unchecked, this dominance will become a devastating strategic vulnerability for the US and EU, especially as our climate policy goals push us toward zero-emissions vehicles. We risk a scenario in which we swap our dependence on a chaotic oil market dominated by Opec countries that do not share our strategic goals, for a

“Years ago when Tesla bet on electric, major companies like VW and BMW were not interested. Now, everyone is eager to get on the EV bandwagon. It is possible that Toyota is the one betting on the future now!” Read entire article New A.G.E. Perspective: Toyota is betting that a regular supply of clean, cheap hydrogen

“Airbus has revealed three concepts for the world’s first zero-emission commercial aircraft which could enter service by 2035. These concepts each represent a different approach to achieving zero-emission flight, exploring various technology pathways and aerodynamic configurations in order to support the company’s ambition of leading the way in the decarbonisation of the entire aviation industry.

Blue hydrogen produced from fossil fuels with carbon capture technology is more likely to be an area of growth over the next decade, while green hydrogen produced from renewables would become more meaningful from 2030 onwards, RBC Capital Markets’ equity analyst Biraj Borkhataria said in a note.

“…suddenly Wall Street can’t stop gushing about the enormous potential of the plentiful, versatile gas to cut emissions from many hard to de-carbonize sectors. Bank of America is the latest analyst to chime in with a bullish note.  According to the giant investment bank, hydrogen could supply our vast energy needs, fuel our cars, heat our

The Hyperion XP-1 is a hydrogen-electric supercar that promises a 1,016-mile (1,635 kilometer) range. The hydrogen fuel cell module generates electric power that motivates all four wheels, and there’s a three-speed transmission. The layout lets the supercar hit 60 miles per hour (96 kilometers per hour) in under 2.2 seconds. The top speed is estimated

“Cummins is rapidly growing its hydrogen capabilities and the company continues to deepen its expertise in fuel cell technologies. Cummins uses fuel cell and hydrogen technologies to power a variety of applications, including transit buses, semi-trucks, delivery trucks, refuse trucks and passenger trains and has made several announcements in the past year related to hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.” Read full article

“Why being the first mover on the decarbonized energy market can bring huge, long-term, benefits if done right. In order to deal with the climate emergency, the European Union is on the road to decarbonization. Many other countries around the world are also taking action. These countries are rapidly concluding that a successful decarbonization path
