GE Vernova's Gas Power business (NYSE:GE) and EnergyAustralia have proudly announced the inauguration of the Tallawarra B Power Station in New South Wales, Australia. This pioneering facility, powered by GE Vernova’s advanced 9F.05 gas turbine, stands as Australia's first commercial operation dual-fuel power plant capable of utilizing both natural gas and hydrogen. By 2025, EnergyAustralia aims to operate the plant on a blend of 5% green hydrogen and natural gas, contingent on the development of a sufficiently large and scalable hydrogen industry. Tallawarra B is set to become the first 9F gas turbine worldwide to run on this innovative fuel mix. The power station is designed to provide up to 320 MW of dispatchable power, enhancing the reliability and sustainability of New South Wales' energy supply. This comes at a critical time following the closure of the Liddell coal-fired plant in April 2023, with Tallawarra B poised to help compensate for the lost capacity and offer crucial flexibility during peak energy demands by utilizing a green hydrogen blend to reduce emissions. Mark Collette, Managing Director of EnergyAustralia, emphasized the significance of Tallawarra B as a keystone in the region's energy transition, marking the first gas-fired power station built in New South Wales in over a decade. "Tallawarra B will provide essential support to the grid, especially as we integrate more renewable sources and phase out coal power," Collette said. EnergyAustralia is also preparing for the future by upgrading its adjacent Tallawarra A station to enhance its efficiency and capacity, enabling it to use up to 30% hydrogen as fuel, aligning with their ambition to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. The 9F turbine at the heart of Tallawarra B exemplifies dual-fuel technology's ability to support the transition to a lower carbon future. GE Vernova, with its comprehensive experience in gas and renewable energy technologies, is at the forefront of enabling the hydrogen value chain. Ramesh Singaram, President and CEO, Asia of GE Vernova’s Gas Power, highlighted the project's role in combatting climate change, "Tallawarra B Power Station underscores gas technology's potential in achieving carbon reduction and ensuring a stable and reliable electricity supply." Located alongside the existing Tallawarra A gas plant, the Tallawarra B Power Station integrates state-of-the-art technology including an A78 generator and a Mark* Vie control system, enhancing installation efficiency and serviceability. GE Vernova's commitment to hydrogen innovation is evident in its portfolio, capable of accommodating hydrogen levels from 5% up to 100%. With a history of gas turbine excellence since 1991 and a goal to develop technology for 100% hydrogen fuel by 2030, GE Vernova is poised to lead the industry towards greener energy solutions. For over a century, GE has been a part of Australia's industrial landscape, with more than 140 gas turbines currently in operation across the country. The Tallawarra B project represents a significant step forward in using hydrogen to lower carbon emissions in the power sector, showcasing a model for future energy projects globally.

Ingka Group, the principal retailer for IKEA, through its investment arm Ingka Investments, is making strides in renewable energy with an application for a permit to launch an ambitious offshore wind and hydrogen production initiative along the Swedish coast. In collaboration with energy company OX2, Ingka Investments plans to erect 207 wind turbines approximately 50km offshore, aiming to generate 3.1GW of clean energy. This venture extends beyond wind power, encompassing an innovative offshore hydrogen production facility with the potential to produce up to 370,000 tonnes of hydrogen annually. A unique aspect of this project is the utilization of by-product oxygen from the electrolysis process, which will be used in a pilot project to reoxygenate the Baltic Sea, addressing environmental concerns in the region. The offshore wind farm is projected to produce an impressive 13 to 15TWh of electricity each year. These initiatives are integral to the envisioned Neptunus energy hub, for which OX2 has already submitted an application. With permit approval, the groundbreaking construction is slated to commence in 2030. Expanding the scope of their renewable energy endeavors, OX2 inked an agreement in December 2022 with Gasgrid Finland, Nordion Energi, and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) to investigate the development of a new offshore hydrogen pipeline in the Baltic Sea. This exploration signifies a broader commitment to integrating hydrogen solutions across various sectors. IKEA and Ingka Group are actively incorporating hydrogen technologies into their operations. Notably, H2 Green Steel has been contracted to provide hydrogen-based steel for half of IKEA’s global warehouse racking systems. On the logistics front, IKEA Austria has recently advanced its sustainable transport initiatives by acquiring five hydrogen fuel cell trucks from Quantron and conducting trials with a heavy-duty truck equipped with a hydrogen-retrofitted internal combustion engine (ICE) by Westport Fuel Systems. This comprehensive approach to renewable energy and sustainable solutions by Ingka Group and its partners underscores a significant shift towards cleaner, more efficient energy sources in Sweden and beyond, marking a pivotal step in the global transition to a hydrogen economy.

In an era where environmental skepticism and debate often overshadow progress, Bertrand Piccard, a name synonymous with adventure and ecological innovation, is charting a course toward hope. In a recent announcement, Piccard, alongside engineer Raphaël Dinelli, has unveiled plans for an unprecedented venture: a non-stop, round-the-world flight powered entirely by green hydrogen. The mission, dubbed ‘Climate Impulse,’ is not just a journey through the skies but a bold statement on the potential of green technology to reshape our world. Set for 2028, Climate Impulse, in collaboration with Belgian scientific powerhouse Syensqo, is more than a feat of aviation; it's a demonstration of how the future of travel—and indeed, our planetary footprint—can pivot towards sustainability. This ambitious flight embodies Piccard's lifelong dedication to bridging the gap between environmental necessity and economic viability, drawing from his groundbreaking ventures like the Breitling Orbiter and Solar Impulse. Climate Impulse stands at the forefront of aviation innovation, poised to make a significant ecological impact. By harnessing the power of green hydrogen, this aircraft aims to cut the industry's carbon emissions dramatically, offering a glimpse into a future where air travel contributes positively to our planet's health. The heart of this project beats with the spirit of collaboration and technological mastery, particularly through its partnership with Syensqo. This company, which played a pivotal role in the Solar Impulse flight nearly two decades ago, brings its cutting-edge materials and expertise to construct an aircraft tailored for the challenges of hydrogen-powered flight. The main technological hurdle—maintaining liquid hydrogen at -253°C for the duration of the flight—will be overcome with innovative thermal tanks and materials designed to ensure efficiency and safety. Beyond the technological marvel, Climate Impulse is envisioned as an environmental flagship, challenging the status quo of the aviation sector and promoting a global shift towards more sustainable practices. It continues Piccard's legacy of exploration and innovation, signaling a new era where the thrill of discovery aligns with the principles of sustainability. Piccard's call to action, underscored by the invitation to follow Climate Impulse's journey through social media and the #ClimateImpulse and #BeTheImpulse hashtags, is a rallying cry for collective effort. It underscores the belief that the breakthroughs achieved in the skies can inspire and inform sustainable practices on the ground. As Climate Impulse prepares to soar, it represents not just a technological achievement but a global beacon of hope. It's a testament to the power of human ingenuity, the promise of green hydrogen, and the unyielding pursuit of a world where progress and environmental stewardship fly hand in hand.
