But project announcements do not yet mean investments have been decided or exportable volumes will soon be available. Costs, water, infrastructure and offtake contracts remain decisive conditions.

Clean hydrogen: researchers call for targeting the most effective uses

Mapathé SOW0119 views

Research published in Nature Climate Change urges governments to direct low-carbon hydrogen toward uses where it can cut emissions at lower cost. Comparing ten high-emitting sectors around 2035, researchers identify steelmaking, refining and ammonia production as priority applications. Conversely, hydrogen in road and rail vehicles appears less competitive than direct electrification under the assumptions studied.

Finland: crystalline bedrock studied for underground hydrogen storage

Mapathé SOW0122 views

A study in Finland by research center VTT and the Geological Survey of Finland (GTK), together with companies active in hydrogen, examines storing the gas in cavities excavated in crystalline bedrock. This approach interests regions without salt formations, often used to create sealed underground caverns. It could broaden large-scale storage options, but does not mean commercial facilities are already ready for construction.

The group says the fund was substantially oversubscribed. This confirms institutional investor appetite for energy-related assets, but does not mean all capital will immediately be invested in renewable projects.
