Hydrogen refuelling infrastructure has reached a critical learning stage, with early station deployments revealing insights into elements of station design, integration, and operation that could improve future developments. Tom Phillips, Production Engineering Manager at diaphragm compression system maker PDC Machines, told H2 View that early stations were designed with high utilisation in mind, but lower than expected usage and system complexity led to various challenges.

With clean hydrogen production costs expected to remain high in the foreseeable future, eyes are looking to storage solutions that can help limit leaks and energy losses to minimise delivered hydrogen prices. Further still, whether in tanks, trailers, or salt caverns, storage must be safe, scalable, and cost-effective – all while containing a highly leak-prone molecule at pressures of up to 1,000 bar.

Polish multinational operator Orlen plans to build a hydrogen supply network around Poland and into Europe after securing PLN1.7bn ($459m) of grant funding for two clean hydrogen projects. The funds will be paid out from the National Recovery Plan budget. Hydrogen Eagle is expected to produce hydrogen using renewable electricity and municipal waste, for the transport and industrial sectors. The other project, Green H2, is focused specifically on Orlen’s refinery operations in Gdańsk.

Buildings supplier Heidelberg Materials has officially inaugurated Brevik CCS in Norway, billed as the world’s first industrial-scale CCS facility in the cement industry. Brevik CCS will capture around 400,000 tonnes of CO2 per year, representing 50% of the plant’s emissions. The facility is part of the Norwegian government’s Longship project, developing Europe’s first full-scale value chain for carbon capture, transport, and storage from hard-to-abate industries.

Hydrogen-powered buses will dominate near-term demand for hydrogen refuelling, according to the CEO of Resato Hydrogen Technology. Rob Castien, boss of Resato’s hydrogen refuelling spin-off, told H2 View, the public mobility segment had a solid business case behind it, despite concerns about hydrogen’s potential in the wider mobility market. “2025 to 2026 will be the years when bus projects are the most interesting for us to go to,” the CEO explained.

Carbon dioxide project Norne and Port of Aalborg, both in Denmark, are to develop a CO2 hub which aims to handle 15 million tonnes a year. The hub has received the go-ahead after securing an EU Connecting Europe facility grant. The financing will co-fund the development of a new quay to support the Norne CO2 reception facilities serving multiple Danish onshore and near-shore CO2 storage facilities, as well as the use of CO2 in industrial applications and decarbonised fuels.
