How it works: Neology is developing a system that converts liquid ammonia into hydrogen and then into electricity using a fuel cell, producing water as the primary byproduct.

The process involves an "ammonia cracker," a device that splits ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen. The hydrogen is then fed into a fuel cell to generate electricity, while nitrogen, a harmless component of air, is released.

BERLIN, Feb 1 (Reuters) - Germany's EnBW (EBKG.DE), opens new tab said on Sunday it had signed a memorandum of understanding with Saudi Arabia's Acwa (2082.SE), opens new tab to develop a pathway to import and treat ammonia for use in German hydrogen energy projects.

Germany is seeking to build up its hydrogen capacity to help it meet clean energy targets, and some 50%-70% of its needs will have to be imported, authorities have said.

Hydrogen-powered flights are not wishful thinking but a reality that’s closer than it may seem, and one of the true believers is Bristol Airport. Recognizing the massive importance of airport operators doing their job to secure the kind of infrastructure that’s required for hydrogen aircraft flights, Bristol Airport is collaborating with Ultima Forma on a liquid hydrogen refueling project.

Hyundai is exploring a "potential collaboration" with the Canadian hydrogen energy sector, it told CBC News on Thursday, as the South Korean automaker bets on decarbonized cars to be the future of the automotive industry.

The revelation came a few days after Canada and South Korea signed a memorandum of understanding that will see the two co-operate in several key industries, including auto and battery manufacturing.

Liebherr recently reported a successful test of the “world’s first prototype large wheel loader with a hydrogen engine.”

The test of the L 566 H occurred at a gravel plant in Munich, Germany, and included off-road hydrogen-powered trucks from Daimler and MAN.

"What makes it special is that our wheel loader can be used in exactly the same way as a conventional diesel machine,” says Hans Knapp, head of the Pre-Development and Drive Technology Department at Liebherr. “No special deployment planning is required, as the wheel loader can work a full shift and be ready again after a quick refueling of just 10-15 minutes."

You typically expect a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air to smell like gasoline and exhaust fumes. The bright red ’57 heading to the Barrett-Jackson block in Scottsdale is different. It looks and performs like a classic hot rod, but it runs entirely on hydrogen. That means it emits nothing but water vapor for emissions, all while pumping out 500 horsepower. CRC Industries commissioned this build to prove that clean fuel doesn’t have to be boring, and more importantly, to fund the next generation of mechanics.
