Ofgem has awarded GBP 500,000 to a consortium led by National Gas and Gravitricity to develop an innovative lined shaft system for storing up to 100 tons of green hydrogen underground. The project, with participants including Southern Gas Networks, Guidehouse, and Edinburgh University, aims to assess feasibility for potential deployment in 2026. Plug Power has expanded its partnership with Allied Green Ammonia for a 2 GW electrolyzer project in Uzbekistan, part of a larger sustainable fuels initiative. Solatio engages with Arab investors and the governor of Piauí, Brazil, for a green hydrogen project, supported by the Industrial Transition Accelerator. Inpex has commenced commissioning activities for its integrated blue hydrogen and ammonia production project in Japan, a pioneering effort in the country's hydrogen sector. Centrica also secures a significant agreement with Equinor to supply gas to the UK, with provisions for potential hydrogen sales in the future.
