First off is the Western Green Energy Hub has submitted its proposal for federal environmental approval in Western Australia, someplace we're going to be pretty soon. The project plans to install 70 gigawatts of wind and solar capacity through 35 power nodes. Now, each node will include 2 to 3 gigawatts of generation and about 1. 5 gigawatts of electrolyzer. Phil, Western Australia has a number of renewable projects planned. What makes this one unique? Well, Phil Totaro: it's the first one. They're Allen Hall: going to Phil Totaro: do it. Yeah. Because of all these mega projects that have been proposed throughout Australia. There's some in Queensland and South Australia, and I think one in Victoria as well. And what we're talking about is something that's like, 30, 40, 50, 60, in this case, 70 gigawatts worth of generation capacity. That's almost. I mean, 70 gigawatts is almost what the entire Australian grid produces on an annual basis. So what they're doing with this is they're saying, all right, it's going to accommodate some, increased electricity demand. Although the, the amount that, that it's going to increase is, is modest compared to the, the amount they're going to be generating. But as you mentioned, they're going to add all these, um, Electrolyzer is to be able to produce hydrogen on a lot of these mega projects in Australia that have been proposed. That's their intent is to, build these these things with, turbines that are going to be at least 10. Megawatts each, if not bigger. The reality with this is it is the first of these kind of mega projects to, to get into this environmental permitting and consent queue. And so this is the start of what could be, a pretty major undertaking. Joel Saxum: Something to think about here too, is this is in Western Australia. So if you know anything about Western or if you know anything about Australia's grid, it's not very well connected East to West. And the major demand centers are all in the East. You have Perth in the West, of course, but that Western side of Australia, the grid doesn't need much energy to support it. It doesn't have a whole lot of demand compared to the rest of the, or the, to the Eastern parts of the country. So at the end of the day, 70 gigawatts is great, but the This is going to be just a, not just, but for the most part, a green hydrogen project, right? They don't need 70 gigawatts of clean energy to fulfill the grid needs over there. That doesn't demand that much. So most of this energy was used for hydrogen, green hydrogen creation. And that's one thing that Australia does really, really, really well. They have a lot of natural resources and they know how to export. So you, you look to see this project.

This week, our guest is Arne Wohlschlegel, Managing Director at Siemens Energy Canada. Siemens Energy Canada provides a range of energy technologies, including natural gas turbines, grid equipment and digital solutions, wind turbines, and hydrogen electrolyzers.Peter and Jackie asked Arne about the power equipment business, including how the potential new tariffs could impact the business and new manufacturing investments. They also discuss technologies for generating electricity from natural gas and efficiency rates. Other questions include: To decarbonize natural gas power generation, is it better to blend clean hydrogen into the feedstock or capture the carbon dioxide from the exhaust? What is the backlog for ordering new natural gas power plants and the waiting time for other key electrical components, such as large transformers? What digital technologies can increase the use of existing grid infrastructure? What are your expectations for offshore and onshore wind generation projects in Canada? Hydrogen development in Canada has been slower than initially expected back in 2022; why the delays, and what are your future expectations?Content referenced in this podcast:Siemens Energy Canada PETRONAS International Energy Speaker Series, Pulitzer Prize winner Anne Applebaum will be in Calgary on February 6, 2025.

Hydrogen demand throughout the world reached 94 million metric tons in 2021, according to the International Energy Agency's (IEA's) Global Hydrogen Review 2022, an annual report issued by the IEA in late September last year. Demand for new applications grew to about 40,000 metric tons (up 60% from 2020, albeit from a low base). Notably, the IEA said some key new applications for hydrogen are showing signs of progress. Announcements for new steel projects are growing fast, according to the agency, just one year after the startup of the first demonstration project using pure hydrogen in direct reduction of iron. Furthermore, the first fleet of hydrogen fuel cell trains started operating in Germany. There were also more than 100 pilot and demonstration projects reported using hydrogen and its derivatives in shipping, and the IEA noted that major companies have already signed strategic partnerships to secure the supply of these fuels. In the power sector, the use of hydrogen and ammonia is also attracting a lot of attention. The report says announced projects stack up to almost 3.5 GW of potential capacity by 2030. With the future for hydrogen looking so bright, it's no wonder companies are moving quickly to take advantage of the opportunity. Accelera, a new brand launched in March this year as part of Cummins' New Power business segment, is among the companies hoping to cash in on the growth in hydrogen. It opened its first U.S. electrolyzer manufacturing plant in Fridley, Minnesota, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 19. “Fridley was basically the fastest way for us to get capacity on stream quickly,” Alex Savelli, managing director of Hydrogen Technologies for Accelera, said as a guest on The POWER Podcast. “We announced it in October and we had the ribbon-cutting in May, so within six months.” While the Fridley site was a “brownfield” project, meaning it was built where Cummins already had an existing facility, Accelera is also building “greenfield” projects in other parts of the world. “There are a couple of sites that we've actually selected 18 months ago to be built in Spain and China,” Savelli said. “They're greenfield sites, and from beginning to completion, it probably will take two years before they're up and running.” President Biden visited the Fridley facility on April 3 this year as part of a tour intended to showcase how the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) are benefitting American manufacturing jobs. It was just two months after Biden signed the IRA that Cummins announced it would begin manufacturing electrolyzers at its Fridley location, which now has about 89,000 square feet dedicated to electrolyzer manufacturing. “Quite a bit of that decision in a lot of ways was supported by some of the good policies that the current administration has put in place with the Infrastructure Bill as well as the Inflation Reduction Act,” said Savelli. “They have certainly underpinned our decision even more strongly. Since then, we have seen demand really pick up.” Most of the hydrogen used around the world today is produced through steam methane reforming using natural gas as the feedstock, which releases carbon dioxide in the process. This is often referred to as “gray hydrogen.” Electrolyzer technology offers a way to produce “green hydrogen,” which is carbon-free and could help hard-to-decarbonize industries become more sustainable. To produce green hydrogen, renewable resources are used to power electrolyzers. “We think with the challenges around climate change and what we need to achieve to actually get to net-zero, hydrogen would definitely be one of the big elements there,” said Savelli. “It will become a multi-billion-dollar opportunity—whether it's here in the Americas, in Europe, or other places—between now and the end of the decade.”

Dioxycle is a carbon transformation startup that is working on a new process to produce ethylene at scale using recycled carbon emissions.

This week Frank Davis, Assistant VP, Green Hydrogen and Canada Country Head at Pattern Energy joins as our guest.  Pattern Energy is developing a green hydrogen project at the Port of Argentia in Newfoundland and Labrador. The project will use renewable electricity to produce green hydrogen and convert it into ammonia.  Here are some of the questions that Jackie and Peter asked Frank: Tell us about the different parts of the project (electricity production to hydrogen and ammonia). Why did you select the province of Newfoundland and Labrador? How do you manage the variability of renewable power while running the ammonia plant 24/7? How much does the cost of green ammonia compare with hydrogen produced from fossil fuels? Would you look for 10 or 20 year take-or-pay contracts before proceeding with the project or is it a merchant model? How does Canadian policy for green hydrogen compare with the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)? Content referenced:  Learn more about Pattern Energy's project in Newfoundland: Argentia Renewables - Pattern EnergyUN IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report: Climate Change 2023 (see page 7 of the Summary for Policy Makers to see the infographic that compares to what extent future generations will experience a hotter and different world), Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/

Driven by decarbonisation demand for low carbon hydrogen is set to rise, but understanding the strengths and weaknesses of each electrolyzer strategy will be key to making smart investment decisions. The global annual demand for low-carbon hydrogen ist projected to grow from less than 1 Mt in 2021 to 20 to 30 Mt by the end of the decade. A key prerequisite to passing this milestone, however, is the selection of the most suitable electrolyzer technology, which is predominantly based on economic drivers, namely levelized cost of hydrogen. What does it take to successfully implement hydrogen projects? What challenges and developments can currently be observed in the electrolyzer sector? Dr. Fabio Oldenburg, Senior Consultant at Apricum, reveals this and more. Timeline: 02.11: How does the electrolyzer project landscape look like today? 07.43: What makes an electrolyzer project commercially successful? 10.45: What are important challenges for developing PV + electrolyzer projects? 13.16: What are the implications for the selection of the electrolyzer supplier and technology?

News Disney's "Holobricks" could stack up for larger holograms | New Atlas (01:03) Scientists at Cambridge and Disney Research may be closer to making holograms “less disappointing.”They've created new “holobricks” that can stack and tile together to produce large 3D images that can be viewed from multiple angles. Holograms are three-dimensional virtual images that appear to exist within the real world instead of on a screen. Produced in multiple ways:Reflective Screens Projections onto fog Then you have the classic “Pepper's Ghost” illusion. Started in the 1860sA brightly lit figure out of the audience's sight below the stage is reflected in a pane of glass placed between the performer and the audience. To the audience, it appears as if the ghost is on stage. Old ways are low in resolution, while the new system, from Cambridge and Disney, is designed to boost the picture quality with scalable, modular holographic blocks, or holobricks as the team calls them.Each holobrick is made up of a spatial light modulator, a scanner, and coarse integrated optics. The system combines three images of the same object from slightly different angles, which creates a sense of depth.Then light is then sent through a series of lenses that separates the images, so that when it appears on the 2D display on the surface of the holobrick, but from different angles. Has a resolution of 1024 x 768, a 40-degree field of view and at a cinematic frame rate of 24 frames per second. Essentially, that means that as you walk around the screen, your view of the virtual object or scene changes with you.Additionally it is modular, allowing the size of the holograms to be increased. There is still more work to do, but the researchers say that the holobricks could open up possibilities like holographic video walls or interactive kiosks.   Obesity alters molecular architecture of liver cells; repairing structure reverses metabolic disease | Harvard News (06:23) According to Harvard researchers, cells use their molecular architecture to regulate their metabolic functions, and repairing diseased cells' architecture to a healthier state can also repair metabolism.This could have implications on reversing obesity, and reversing the damage it causes to the body.  Gökhan Hotamışlıgi, a Harvard public health professor, mentions the regulatory mechanism they discovered:“The fundamental regulatory mechanism that we discovered can be used to evaluate the susceptibility—or resistance—of individuals to a disease state like obesity, and determine what steps, such as diet, nutrients, or fasting, will reduce, eliminate, or exacerbate these states. We can imagine a whole new array of therapeutic strategies targeting molecular architecture, similar to the restoration of an ailing building or preventing its deterioration.” The study compared liver samples from healthy, lean mice with samples from obese mice with fatty liver disease.  Using machine learning & AI, along with high-resolution imaging the researchers  generated three-dimensional reconstructions of specialized structures, called organelles, inside cells. Organelles are the components of the cell.  Then compared the architecture/structure of the organelles between the lean & obese mice. ​​The images produced from this research are the most detailed visualization to date of subcellular structures while the cells are still intact in their tissue environment. Through these analyses, the team determined that obesity leads to dramatic alterations in subcellular molecular architecture, particularly in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), an organelle involved in the creation and shaping of proteins and lipids. The team then partially restored the ER's structure using technologies that can repair molecules and proteins that can reshape cellular membranes to see what would happen. “The outcome was really striking—when structure is repaired, so is the cell's metabolism,” said Ana Paula Arruda, co-lead on the research. “What we are describing here is a whole new way of controlling metabolism by regulating molecular architecture, which is critical for health and disease.” Researchers Make 'Giant Leap' to Produce Affordable Renewable Hydrogen | Good News Network (11:53) An Australian company, Hysata, has invented a totally new electrolyzer to expand use of hydrogen fuel, which they say represents the first real revolution in the technology in 200 years.Electrolyzer is the device that would separate water into hydrogen gas and oxygen with electrical current In more detail, an electrolyzer consists of an anode and a cathode separated by a sponge-like membrane. H2O is sent into the anode, where its electrons are stripped and turned into electricity, powering whatever it's connected to. Positively charged protons cross through the membrane into the cathode, where oxygen is pulled into. There, the protons, reunited with their electrons post-electricity harvest, combine with the oxygen to form water and heat. The company changed the design of the electrolyzer to make the cost of pure hydrogen fuel competitive with fossil fuels.Decreasing the heat and resistance generated through separating hydrogen. In a typical electrolyzer, gas bubbles form, reducing the efficiency of the process, but with this new design, Hysata was able to eliminate the problem.Resulting in 95% efficiency, or 41.5 kWh per kilogram of hydrogen Typical electrolyzer produce 39.4 kWh of energy from 1 kg of hydrogen. Hysata aren't just scientists however, and the economics of their electrolyzer make sense. The membranes are easy to manufacture and the process can be automated at scale.   Microbes in Your Gut May Affect Personality – Could Be Associated With Mental and Physical Fatigue | SciTechDaily (16:25) Clarkson University researchers are performing research to determine if gut microbiome and metabolomic pathways in the gut could be associated with the personality traits mental energy, mental fatigue, physical energy, and physical fatigue.Gut metabolomes are small molecules, such as amino acids, enzymes, and co-factors, that are produced in the gut. There are thousands of different types of bacteria living in the gut determined by many factors, such as health status, dietary habits, and even physical activity levels. The researchers performed initial research on a small sample of young physically active adults. The preliminary findings found that there are distinct bacteria and metabolomes that are associated with each personality trait.  One bacterium was associated with three of the four personality traits, but none between all four traits. Bacteria associated with metabolism were associated with either mental or physical energy, Bacteria associated with inflammation were associated with mental or physical fatigue.  The results build on previous work that reports that mental energy, mental fatigue, physical energy and physical fatigue are four distinct biological moods. Lead researcher, Ali Boolani, talks on the findings:“These new findings support my previous work where we report that feelings of energy are associated with metabolic processes, while feelings of fatigue are associated with inflammatory processes …  Since we are still learning about the gut microbiome, we don't know whether if we try to change our personality trait, we might see a change in gut microbiome; or if we try to change our gut microbiome, we might also change our personality trait. Additionally, these findings may help explain some of the interpersonal differences that we see in response to the anti-fatiguing effects of nutritional interventions.” Next, Boolani and his team plan to duplicate the current study with samples from a much larger number of participants.    SpaceX is hosting a new fellowship on space-based surgery. It could save lives | Interesting Engineering (20:39) Performing simple tasks in space becomes difficult, so you can imagine performing surgery would be even more difficult.  In a bid to start tackling that issue head on, SpaceX has partnered with the University of Arizona and Banner Health to host the first-ever Aerospace Surgery Fellowship starting this July.All according to a press release by Banner health. The APEX fellowship will last for a year It will be the first-ever fellowship training program in the U.S. to go beyond medical oversight for astronauts, delving into the field of aerospace surgery.Aims to train future astronaut surgeons, who will travel to space with the express goal of keeping their fellow space explorers alive. The APEX Aerospace Surgery Fellowship will bring expert surgeons and physicians together in the U.S., helping them prepare to work in the commercial aerospace medical field.They will form a part of the medical teams serving upcoming missions launched by SpaceX, NASA, and other space programs. Fellows will have the opportunity to spend six months conducting research with SpaceX, the world's leading launch provider.  Nathanial Soper, executive director for general surgery at Banner, talked on the fellowship:"Individuals who train in this program will not only be qualified to support the space program personally … they will also be on the leading edge of developing the necessary tools and procedures to facilitate this exciting next phase in space exploration. I am truly excited and enthusiastic about our institution being involved in this novel undertaking." With the backing of SpaceX, which aims to reach the red planet in the 2030s, we may soon breach a new frontier with the world's first space surgery.

In this episode the Rethink Energy team discusses the Cummins-Sinopec electrolyzer gigafactory, China's 105 GW UHV transmission expansion, the 300 days remaining for the Biden Administration to push through climate spending, and the attempt within the EU to classify natural gas built prior to 2030 as green power.

In the final episode of Season One of our Green Hydrogen series, we're looking at how Hydrogen might be useful to aid hard-to-abate industries such as Steel in achieving a zero-carbon future.  Let's get serious about carbon intensity for a minute: the steel industry produces approx 2.6 GIGATONS* of carbon emissions  annually, that's over 7% of total  global emissions and it's a product that is not optional in today's world. If you're having a hard time wrapping your head around that number, I give you a great example further down with a reference for further reading.  For this final episode of the season, Joachim von Scheele, Global Director of Commercialization for leading gas retailer, Linde, has set his sights on decarbonizing Steel and other large industry emitters through energy efficiency and, yes, Green Hydrogen.  As a longtime Global leader for Linde, Joachim has spent his 20 year career living and working in India, China, and Europe where these hard-to-abate industries are critical parts of the economy and the world's construction process.  Today, he provides a crash-course in steel manufacturing and Hydrogen production, along with a vision for how green hydrogen could possibly be the answer to decarbonizing this energy intensive sector.  And we're not just day-dreaming, here, Joachim gets calls daily from the industry leaders who are looking to transition to “green steel”.   The demand has arrived, but who will meet it?   Listen Now, on SunCast.   *the prefix “giga” means 109, or one billion (1,000,000,000). Hence terms like “gigawatt” or “gigahertz.” Thus, a gigaton is equivalent to a billion metric tons. So, 2.6 Gigatons = roughly 38 Billion Pounds (plus a little), therefore about 5.5 times the entire Human population in CO2 is being released into the atmosphere each year just by Steel alone. Let that sink in.Credit to Washinton Post  for this excellent article on the scale of Gigatons in Ice, CO2, etc from 2015  This is the last episode of our Green Hydrogen Mini-Series.  You can hear all five episodes and learn more about our experts at www.mysuncast.com/hydrogen  Episode 1 - Nexus of Deep Decarbonization & “The Inevitability of Hydrogen” with Sheldon Kimber, CEO Intersect Power Episode 2 - The Green Hydrogen Opportunity with DNVs Global Energy Storage leader and Hydrogen Industry Veteran, Jason Goodhand Episode 3 - The Role of the Large Energy Companies, partnership opportunities, existing infrastructure, and more from a top 10 Oil & Gas analyst, RBC's Biraj Borkhataria Episode 4 - Role of New Technologies - with Raffi Garbedin, Co-founder of Electric Hydrogen (formerly CTO of First Solar)  Episode 5 - Decarbonizing Hard-to-abate Sectors Like Steel with Joachim Von Sheele, Global Director of Commercialization at the world's largest industrial gas company, Linde, who is also building the world's largest Electrolyzer.

If you've been around the solar industry for long, you might recognize the name, Raffi Garabedian. If you don't, however, it's probably because you haven't studied the rise of one of the largest solar manufacturing brands in the world, First Solar, or perhaps you didn't sell against First Solar for years like Nico did in his past life! Raffi was the Chief Technology Officer at First Solar for the better part of the last decade, and recently retired to pursue “other interests”.  When he came out if stealth this year, we were surprised, and pleased, that it was in pursuit of another cutting edge technology scale-up endeavor - productizing an electrolyzer stack that can scale effectively for developers as many, like Intersect Power, scour the market for a partner to help convert those clean green electrons from massive solar and wind parks into Green Hydrogen.  Founded by experienced renewable energy technologists, Electric Hydrogen aims to cost-effectively decarbonize the massive industrial sectors that we all rely on. Raffi and team are thinking big and with urgency to decarbonize the physical world, and in today's part four of our Green Hydrogen series, he speaks to exactly where the market is going and what technological limitations have thus far limited scale thus far. If you're new to the Hydrogen discussion, you'll also appreciate Raffi's solar-specific perspective, detailed insight into the role of solar project developers, and critical thought around the barriers to scale presently for Green Hydrogen technology. It gets technical, but it's eye-opening, and it's a ton of value packed into an hour - fair warning, you may need to listen twice!   As in the last 3 episodes, Intersect Power's CEO, Sheldon Kimber, joins me for a “takeaways” session at the end of the episode so you can hear from a major clean infrastructure developer (Intersect has raised >$2.5B in financing) on where all this fits in a real-world application.

H2Tech sat down with Ted Stuart, Co-Founder and Vice President of Product Strategy, of Hydrogen Optimized. Mr. Stuart provides his insights on the electrolyzer market and advances in new electrolyzer technology.

On this week's episode of H2TechTalk, Martin Tengler, Lead Hydrogen Analyst at BloombergNEF, considers future growth prospects for the global low-carbon H2 market, which is anticipated to nearly double in size in 2021 alone. He also discusses the forecast rapid expansion in electrolyzer capacity over the following years, with much of this capacity coming from alkaline electrolyzer makers in China, and how this surge in Chinese manufacturing and surplus electrolyzer capacity will impact the H2 market. Finally, he touches on carbon pricing and how this can support H2 and other renewable energy development.

Next Hydrogen Solutions Inc. (TSXV-NXH) CEO Raveel Afzaal tells Proactive the Toronto, Canada-based clean hydrogen energy generator is working on scaling up its technology to convert intermittent renewable electricity into green hydrogen. Afzaal says the group, who recently listed its shares on the TSX Venture Exchange, raised $55.5 million in a private placement, the bulk of which will be used towards product development over the next three years, as well as moving into its 24MW manufacturing facility in September.

In this episode the Rethink Energy team discusses a new hydrogen production process that uses solar power directly without electrolysis, the Earth Day Summit and international climate targets, China's 30 GW five-year energy storage ambitions, and some pro-gas bills in the aftermath of the February Texas powercut, and our upcoming Steel Report forecasting global demand and decarbonisation.

Laurens Terraneo works at Frames, a Electrolyzer system companie. He explains the difference between different electrolysis technology. We also speek about decreases in the cost of those technologies.
