After a successful 2022, the Hydrogénies competition returns in 2023 with a presentation of the hydrogen trophies which will take place on May 24, 2023 in the plenary room of the Palais des congrès de Bordeaux on the occasion ofs 24th European Energy Transition Conference. Applications to apply for one of these trophies are open until 10 avril 2023. The third edition of the Hydrogénies competition makes this unique event an unmissable event where the key players in the sector, the most promising innovations, the best experts and the most qualified investors will come together. Innovation at the service of…

Gen-Hy, a French start-up offering innovative solutions for the production of green hydrogen, and Eiffage Énergie Systèmes announce the creation of Gen-Hy Cube, dedicated to the manufacture of AEM (Anion Exchange Membrane) electrolysers developed and patented by Gen-Hy, whose factory will be in Montbéliard. This partnership concretizes the simultaneous product-process engineering approach undertaken for two years between Gen-Hy and Eiffage Énergie Systèmes. It is an opportunity for both companies to contribute to the development of renewable hydrogen production and thus support the decarbonization of industry, mobility and energy. In this context, Gen-Hy brings its technological know-how in the mastery of…
The 2th The Hydrogen for Climate forum held in Montbéliard last November aimed to develop the hydrogen energy vector in an urgent economic, geopolitical and climatic context. The Hydrogen Business For Climate Forum is organized by the Véhicule du Futur cluster and with the support of the State, the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region, the Pays de Montbéliard Agglomération and the Belfort/Grand Belfort community. Its purpose is to provide information and ideas to promote the hydrogen energy transition in France and Europe. This second edition brought together 450 experts, companies, public stakeholders, researchers and international stakeholders to co-opt the levers of action essential…
The first edition of the global forum, organized by the Monaco Hydrogen Alliance association, brought together participants from more than 31 countries last November. A look back at an event that helped establish a global roadmap for sustainable transport. AToday, hydrogen is the promise of abundant, reliable, constant and non-polluting energy” declared HSH Prince Albert II during the first edition of the Monaco Hydrogen Forum which he honored with his presence and showed his strong involvement. Monaco: the hydrogen asset The two-day gathering brought together over 200 participants from 31 countries, including: Céline Caron-Dagioni, Minister of Public Works, Environment and…
Specializing in the production of green hydrogen, the Canadian company Charbone is developing a modular unit for the production of hydrogen by electrolysis with reduced Capex and Opex. In addition to the North American market, the company wishes to engage in the development of green hydrogen production in Europe. Interview with its vice-president, Johann Bureau. LCharbone was created in Quebec in 2019 by a group of renewable energy specialists under the leadership of Dave Gagnon, current CEO. “Our goal is to produce exclusively green hydrogen at a cost competitive with fossil fuels,” explains Johann Bureau, Vice President of Charbone, “while…
Hydrogen+ : Your Hynoca process produces hydrogen by thermolysis of biomass. Does this technology have the potential to meet the challenges of mass production of renewable hydrogen? Philippe Haffner. The European target of producing 10 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen by 2030 is very ambitious and requires a pragmatic and technologically neutral approach to hope to be achieved. We will therefore need all the hydrogen production solutions for a massive deployment that requires heavy infrastructure that does not yet exist for certain technologies. With Hynoca, we can quickly and locally produce large quantities of hydrogen without infrastructure. Our process consists…
A study conducted by France Hydrogène shows that France has around twenty hydrogen projects currently being set up, at different levels of maturity, intended for the production of efuels, which should mobilize a production capacity of more than 400,000 tonnes of hydrogen, or 38% of the total capacity by 2030! Pour France Hydrogène, this high level, well above the initial prospects, is notably linked to the European objectives of deployment of RNFBO14 in transport (overall), of RED III (2.6% by 2030 – Commission proposal) and even more of the RePowerEU plan (5.7% by 2030), as well as to the establishment…
LThe observation is there: ports have a central role to play in the massification of the hydrogen sector. However, the volumes and characteristics of activities can vary from one port to another, implying different strategies and means of action. The capacity of a port to produce massively within its own territory is an essential variable in the viability of its hydrogen project. The production volumes associated with the ecosystem will induce more or less significant effects of scale that will make it possible to reduce the costs of hydrogen and thus meet the economic conditions of the targeted uses (from…
Focused on specific mobility such as fishing, pleasure boating and coastal and island services, some smaller ports such as Lorient, Vannes or Boulogne will have to integrate a wider hydrogen network to consolidate their own ecosystem and thus be sufficiently robust in the years and decades to come. Their role will be important on the scale of maritime facades or corridors, but also in the rise of a technical and industrial value chain thanks to the diversification of historical activities. Supporting hydrogen in these ports can therefore take other forms, complementary to those of large industrial or diversified ports. Hydrogen+…
Hydrogen+ : Who is Genevos? Phil Sharp. Genevos is a company created to accelerate the energy transition in the maritime sector and across our oceans. As an ocean racing skipper, I have participated in many transatlantic races such as the Route du Rhum, Transat Jacques Vabres, and Mini Transat. This has allowed me to see many dirty and noisy commercial and fishing vessels. We have an expression in English “out of sight – out of mind”. We have a problem with the maritime industry which is responsible for 3.5% of our global emissions and pollutes more than aerospace, in a…
