Alstom completes the acquisition of its competitor Bombardier Transportation
On February 29, 2021, the French train manufacturer Alstom finalized the acquisition of its Canadian competitor Bombardier Transportation. From now on, Alstom is the world N°2 in the sector behind the Chinese giant CRRC. As early as February 2020, Alstom had announced the acquisition of Bombardier’s rail operations after the difficulties encountered by the Canadian
HRS: Grenoble-based startup that has become a reference in hydrogen mobility.
A specialist in hydrogen filling stations, Grenoble-based startup HRS (Hydrogen Refueling Solutions) carried out the largest IPO on the Euronext Growth Paris market, raising nearly 85 million euros. A pioneer in hydrogen mobility, HRS expects to take advantage of this fund-raising to accelerate its deployment in Europe. ounded in 2004, the HRS startup is originally
MassHylia: the largest hydrogen green site in France
Total and Engie have signed a cooperation agreement to design and develop the Masshylia project, France’s largest renewable hydrogen production site at Châteauneuf-les-Martigues by 2024. Located at the heart of Total’s La Mède biorefinery, MassHylia is the first large-scale to decarbonize hydrogen used in industrial processes. The project initially provides for the production of
Liquefied Natural Gas: Shell Prelude project, offshore LNG production in Australia
Offshore natural gas resources are abundant in Australia. In order to extract these reserves, the oil and gas company Shell has implemented the Prelude project, a huge vessel carrying out the entire production process directly at sea! The Prelude is not a common ship. With its 488 meters long, 74 meters wide and 260,000 tons
An 18 km long tunnel under the Baltic Sea to connect Germany and Denmark
An 18-kilometer-long underwater tunnel under the Baltic Sea between Germany and Denmark. This is one of the new major European construction works, conducted by Vinci, and whose construction is expected to extend until 2029. Let us take a closer look at this gigantic building project! The Femern tunnel project is a €7 billion contract, of
HYDROGEN: ENERGY VECTOR & MICRO-GRIDS
What is an energy vector? An energy vector, or energy carrier, is a substance or a method to transport energy from one place to another and to stock it. Thus, an energy vector contains energy that can be later converted to other forms such as mechanical work and heat, or to operate chemical or physical
Morocco, an African renewable energy pioneer
As an African pioneer in renewable energy, Morocco, since 2009, has embarked on a new perspective enabling it to diversify its energy mix and reduce its energy dependency. A country formerly dependent on fossil fuels, thus increasing its energy bill. Now, in 2020, renewable energy reaches 35% of the Moroccan energy mix and even tends
HYDROGEN: BUSINESS APPLICATIONS & MARKET OVERVIEW
It is increasingly frequent to hear about hydrogen and its potential of becoming the “energy of the future”. But what exactly is hydrogen? What are the possible applications of hydrogen and what is the current state of this market? In this study, we will focus on the current global market of hydrogen as well as
Liquefied Natural Gas: the development of the LNG mobility industry
Like hydrogen, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is seen as a major contributor for the energy transition. LNG has a range of applications, including operating as a greener and more environmentally friendly fuel. The LNG mobility industry has developed massively in recent years. LNG is thus used as a fuel and provides an alternative to diesel.
