Taaleri Energia will own 100% of the wind farm through its Taaleri SolarWind II fund and Encro, the project's original developer. The wind farm should generate about 317 GWh of electricity per year, enough to supply about 85,000 households. During operation, they will offset approximately 78,000 tonnes of CO2e per year. This is the first utility-scale renewable energy project to be developed outside of a state subsidy program.

The Hydrogen Industrial Zone project involves the construction of a 25 MW solar power plant that will provide green energy to the 10 MW hydrogen electrolyzers defined in the EU hydrogen strategy. The project is expected to save 3,000 GWh of energy per year, while its renewable energy production is estimated at 33,000 GHW per year. The conceptual design has been strongly endorsed by the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance.

Sinopec (Sinopec Corp.) plans to produce 20,000 tons of green hydrogen per year when the facility is completed. The plant is located in the northwestern region of Xinjiang and cost about $470.8 million to build. The hydrogen produced by the future plant will be supplied to the neighboring Sinopec Tahe Refinery to replace natural gas for hydrogen production.

V.Group's three new vessels will be used on Shell's long-term time charter. New York-based tanker company International Seaways owns the three LNG dual-fuel VLCCs. In addition to emission-reducing LNG-powered engines, the vessels feature optimized hull shapes and propellers. René Kofod-Olsen, CEO of V.Group, said: "We see LNG as the main transition fuel to achieve our goal of decarbonising shipping".

A dual-fuel LNG (liquefied natural gas) shuttle tanker ordered by NYK Offshore Tankers AS, a subsidiary of NYK, was delivered on August 2 at Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co., Ltd. in South Korea. The shuttle tanker will be chartered to ENI Trade & Biofuels S.p.A and will be engaged in oil transportation in the North Sea and Barents Sea. It will use LNG fuel, which is more environmentally friendly than traditional petroleum fuels, and will be equipped with a VOC recovery system and energy storage system5, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

The vessel will be equipped with separate cargo tanks designed to carry both LPG and ammonia. The vessel will be built at the KHI Sakaide shipyard and is expected to be delivered in 2025. Ammonia is attracting attention as a future zero-emission fuel that emits no carbon dioxide (CO2) when burned. NYK launched "Sail GREEN" as the company's ESG brand, emphasizing NYK's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through the transportation of goods and contribute to customers' eco-friendly supply chains. The VLGC will not only comply with the tightening of the SOx global cap regulations* from January 2020, but will also comply with the IMO's Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)** Stage 3 regulations, which have become more stringent from April 2022 carbon dioxide emission standards. As a "Sustainable Solution Provider", NYK Group promotes new value creation and vigorously promotes ESG management.

WinGD's iCER (Intelligent Control of Exhaust Gas Recirculation) engine solution will be delivered to a new 17400 cbm LNG carrier as part of the WinGD X-DF 2.1 engine. The carrier is being built by South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI), with engine deliveries scheduled for May 2024. It features second-generation technology for better combustion control, resulting in lower emissions and fuel savings across the entire load range. Methane leakage can be reduced by up to 50%.

The world's first 36,000-hour dual-fuel engine overhaul has been completed on an LNG tanker in Malaysia. SK Audace uses six WinGD X62DF twin engines developed by the Swiss marine power company Winterthur Gas & Diesel (WinGD). The overhaul was carried out by CMS Korea at the Malaysian Marine and Heavy Engineering (MMHE) shipyard in June 2022.

The Green Growth Fund (GGF) has completed the third edition of its Green Finance Specialist course, successfully graduating 46 graduates from partner institutions in 10 countries. Participants visited green projects, including the energy self-sufficient village of Feldheim, Germany. They discussed the latest developments in Germany's energy transition, as well as renewable energy legislation and international energy cooperation with the German Energy Agency (dena).

Leonore Gewessler, Minister of Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Transport, Innovation and Technology, said that heating accounts for a quarter of Austria's natural gas consumption. According to the plan, heating oil or coal heaters will need to be replaced with renewable heating systems, and by 2035, the country will be completely replaced. The technology is currently set to be banned in 2025. The country is racing to become climate neutral by 2040, with a goal of replacing 80 percent of its fossil fuel hydrogen with "climate neutral" hydrogen. So-called blue hydrogen is produced from natural gas, but carbon dioxide emissions are captured so they don't reach the atmosphere.
