Shipping Industry Explores Hydrogen Fuel Options

Due to the long distances traveled, and 24/7 operations, the maritime shipping industry is a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. As the industry seeks to decrease emissions, many companies are exploring the potential hydrogen holds to power ships and other marine vessels. Keep reading to learn about two recent initiatives launched by Future […]

Hydrogen Storage and Transportation Solutions

Methods for storing and transporting hydrogen can vary widely depending on the use case. Today, most hydrogen-powered vehicles utilize some form of onboard hydrogen storage in the form of tanks. These tanks typically store compressed gaseous hydrogen at a pressure of 350 or 700 bar (5,000 and 10,000 psi).  Passenger cars and other light-duty vehicles […]

International Hydrogen Initiatives

As countries worldwide seek to lower their carbon emissions, many public and private initiatives are underway to expand the use of hydrogen fuel. Because it creates zero carbon emissions at the tailpipe and offers greater efficiency and operational benefits than many battery-electric alternatives, hydrogen fuel is a viable solution for many countries’ sustainability efforts. To […]

Powering Emergency Relief Vehicles with Hydrogen

Recently, the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Departments of Defense and Homeland Security partnered with Accelera by Cummins Inc. to develop a hydrogen-powered emergency relief vehicle. The result is H2 Rescue, a Class 7 truck that runs on hydrogen fuel cells and serves as a mobile generator that can power up to 20 […]

A Brief History of Hydrogen Safety

Hydrogen fuel has been used for industrial purposes for over 100 years (Rivkin et al., 2015). Prior to that, hydrogen has been a known material for an additional 100 years. Thus, the features of hydrogen have been widely studied and are well-known to researchers and developers of new fueling technology. According to the U.S. Department […]

Benefits of Delivered Hydrogen

For businesses looking to transition to hydrogen fuel, our delivered hydrogen solution can be a beneficial option. It can supplement on-site hydrogen generation or provide hydrogen fuel for operations that don’t generate their own. Hydrogen is delivered ready to fuel, with no additional compression needed. Delivered hydrogen offers multiple benefits including flexibility, affordability, and safety. […]

The Changing Landscape of Emissions Regulations

As federal, state, and local governments look for ways to decrease carbon emissions, new regulations on air quality, emissions, and fuel sources are changing the way many industries operate. Many fleets once powered by diesel or gasoline fuels will need to transition to a low- or zero-emissions alternative in the coming years. Navigating this process […]

Ford Announces Hydrogen Transit Van Test Fleet

American automaker Ford Motor Company recently announced plans to test hydrogen-powered transit vans in the United Kingdom. The test will take place over three years and will use Ford’s electric E-Transit van models that have been adapted to run on hydrogen fuel cells. Ford will partner with B.P. to provide the hydrogen and infrastructure for […]

Kenworth Announces Hydrogen Fuel Cell Heavy-Duty Truck

Kenworth recently announced plans to expand its lineup of clean energy trucking solutions with the launch of the T680 hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV). These Class 8 trucks will be powered by Toyota fuel cell technology and will produce zero carbon emissions at the tailpipe.  Designed for long distances, the T680 FCEV will have […]

Ports of LA and Long Beach Explore Hydrogen Fuel Opportunities

The ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles have joined California’s bid to become one of four federally-funded hydrogen hubs in the United States. If California is awarded the grant, the ports would receive over $500 million in funding to implement hydrogen fuel technology into their operations. Funding for the federal grants is allocated through […]
