Soon to be five-decade?
“This is the 1979 BMW 520 (E12) "Wasserstoff" prototype, the vehicle that launched BMW's four-decade experiment with hydrogen mobility.”
I'm actually talking about #hydrogen, which is very light!
what is the role of #renewables in our increasingly contested #world? how will #hydrogen fit into the global ambition of decarbonization and electrification? And why is pesky #AI and #crypto related to all this anyway?
🔋 A membrane makes fuel cells faster
A new material moves protons 6.5 times faster than the standard fuel cell membrane, cutting the energy barrier by more than half.
Germany’s Spree-Neiße district is building a hydrogen refuelling network to support a 35-bus fleet, expanding zero-emission public transport infrastructure in Brandenburg. #Hydrogen #FuelCells #Buses
A new hydrogen sensor developed with SINTEF can precisely measure mass flow even in high-pressure, large-diameter pipes, addressing a major challenge for hydrogen trading, pipelines and electrolyser output measurement. #Hydrogen #Technology

Hopium is pursuing a €15M [$17.4M] takeover of a European industrial company with a significant hydrogen business, a move that could broaden its operations beyond fuel-cell development and accelerate its commercial turnaround. #Hydrogen #FuelCells
“California proved the #hydrogen fuel cell truck market works. Now we're seeing Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and Baja California align around the same infrastructure and technical standards." https://h2fcp.org/blog/west-coast-governors-commit-hydrogen-fueling-network-heavy-duty-trucks
Viking has floated out Viking Astrea, its second hydrogen-powered ocean ship. Scheduled for delivery in 2027, the vessel will use liquefied hydrogen and fuel cells and be capable of zero-emission operation. #Hydrogen #FuelCells #Shipping
