Rolls-Royce unveils green hydrogen production plans By TAMI HOOD https://www.hydrogenfuelnews.com/author/tami-2-2-2/ Rolls-Royce has revealed its plans to produce green hydrogen at its Friedrichschafen headquarters and also unveiled its plans for testing fuel cell systems and mtu hydrogen engines. The company has already successfully tested its 250kw fuel cell demonstrator system, which could offer uninterruptible power in the event of an outage. Rolls-Royce aims to start green hydrogen production and follow it through much of the value chain, and is working on developing its own standardized mtu electrolyzers with 4MW outputs with the capacity to scale to over 100MW. The luxury vehicle and aero-engine company also revealed that it is working on plans for H2 fuel cell systems. Rolls-Royce has announced its new plans for the production of green hydrogen at its Friedrichschafen headquarters. At the same time, it unveiled its plans for testing its fuel cell systems and mtu hydrogen engines. The company added that its 250kw fuel cell demonstrator has already been successfully tested. The fuel cell demonstrator system could offer uninterruptible power in the case of an outage. “Our new facilities will cover a large part of the hydrogen value chain – from infrastructure to production, distribution and use,” said Rolls-Royce Power Systems H2Infrastructure project head Norbert Markert. Duisport, one of the largest inland ports worldwide, will soon infuse a hydrogen-based supply network into their new terminal as part of the funded Enerport II project, ensuring CO2-neutral energy production through mtu fuel cell systems and mtu Series 4000 hydrogen engines. “The common goal of Rolls-Royce and Hoeller Electrolyser is to develop a solution to produce hydrogen with green energy at low cost and on a large scale,” added Rolls-Royce Power Systems director of sustainability and regulatory affairs Daniel Chatterjee. The fuel cell system “The 25kw system we built at our headquarters in Friedrichshafen and tested for about a year absolutely met our expectations. During the blackout simulation, the system immediately and consistently provided the requested power,” said Dr. Philippe Gorse from Rolls-Royce when discussing the company’s first successful mtu fuel cell system test. That system will be deployed in the port of Duisport as a component of the publicly funded enerPort II projects, which is one of the largest island ports in the world. It will commission a new terminal with a green hydrogen-based supply network next year.

When I drive 60 km uphill to get to the fantastic view for neighbouring island, I have engine running all 60 km. When I drive down I have less than 3 minutes till hybrid battery is full. Also up there is where I can buy extra well tasting small almonds from local, and honey that is far from what is available in supermarkets plus cheese, made like it was very many years ago and tasting incredible. You call that perfectly suited for the purpose of driving in hilly, mountainous roads. I do not.

Copper grease is not good with aluminium. Use lithium grease.

Diesel engines are better reducing speed downhill. A hybrid needs to engage brakes. A CT has a B position in gear selector, that is meant to reduce speed downhill, do not know how RX is taking care of that. Anyway, hybrid cars are not for mountain areas. On the way up engine is using fuel constant and on the way down hybrid battery is full after a few minutes meaning braking power is wasted turning to heat.

On all race cars. Good tor track days. No need for a street car to have excessive camber.

There are many reasons for me always going back to Continental. One of them is a different type of puncture protection.

That is bad news. Sorry for you. Seems that the world is getting more out of control. When I was a kid my family in the country did not lock the doors at night. Hope insurance is up to the task.

A diesel is not a drive slow through town car. Diesel engines need to be really warm if they are to perform like they are built to.

Very likely not in top condition. A MR2 in top condition is not a slow granddaddy car like a heavy 4 door sedan. I have seen many MR2 with far too big wheels on them and that does not make them faster, they just look more - whatever. And right David, the Spyder is stiffer with hardtop on, but that is extra kilos not needed here on the island. The Spyder was without hardtop on handling far better than the 1984 Supra 3.0L Targa we kept only 3 months or so as it was by far the worst new car we ever bought.

When never having been in an IS how would I know?

Had this one, changed suspension to adjustable and wheels to forged Braid wheels. Have no idea how Lexus IS drive, but doubt it would be able to handle as well as this one did. Not quite as good as Delta EVO Rally 4WD but very, very well.

Please report back that you have a new tyre on.

Very good luck. Search function is worse than Herbs informed you.

The data centres are among the electricity consumers that easily can convert H2 to the power needed. They do not bump around on pothole roads. Microsoft Azure Quantum is collaborating with Johnson Matthey to accelerate sustainable energy discoveries for a zero-carbon future through state-of-the-art cloud high-performance computing. The companies believe that hydrogen fuel cell technology and other clean energies can help overcome some of the biggest global challenges, such as reversing global warming and addressing food insecurity. With their combined effort and resources, they are confident they can accelerate chemistry and materials science research to impact 96% of products and every human on the planet. The goal is to develop a uniquely powerful machine that can help accelerate 250 years of chemistry discovery into the next 25 years.

Sunny days are here again. All year. Rain is so seldom that windshield wipers are mostly used to wipe away dust from Sahara and that mean using a lot of windshield wiper fluid. and new rubber inserts from https://www.ebay.de/itm/255489534102 OEM quality Denso Hybrid rubber. Much cheaper than a new windshield.

So that tide will no longer be here in maybe 100 years? Besides I wrote that as long as and not after whatever kind of conspiracy theories whosoever is spreading. Does that mean that it is waste of good energy to develop ways to use that power as long as it is still here say the next couple of thousand years?

Nice car. Congratulations. Too big to find parking space to here on the island. Enjoy.

One of these 2 would be my favourite depending on how many millions I would win in lottery:

Had excellent service on VW for the 2005 2.0tdi DSG we kept till reached close to 200.000km and bought the CT. VW service was superior to the service from Toyota that has service of Lexus since 2009 when Lexus closed their big impressive workshop. Same time (2009) I heard that Toyota also went a bit down compared to when we had a MR2 Spyder we serviced with Toyota. Japanese management left the island and local is far from same quality.

DroneUp and DMI partner to test new hydrogen technology for drones April 19, 2023 By ANGIE BERGENSON DroneUp, a Virginia-based autonomous drone delivery platform and drone services provider, has partnered with Doosan Mobility Innovation (DMI) to test a new hydrogen technology that could extend drone flights and lower carbon emissions to zero. The focus of the collaboration is to meet the needs for scalable operation. DroneUp recently announced that it will be teaming up with Doosan Mobility Innovation (DMI) to test new hydrogen technology for drones that could boost drone flight time and lower carbon emissions to zero. Testing and optimizing reliable systems suitable for scalable operational requirements is the main focus of the agreement. The agreement that DroneUP made with DMI began in October 2022. DroneUP, LLC, a Virginia-based company, is a leading autonomous drone delivery platform and drone services provider, while DMI is a global leader in designing and developing H2 systems for small uncrewed aerial systems (UAS). Although the companies only recently announced their agreement to test DMI’s new hydrogen technology for drones, initially, they partnered last fall. According to a recent news release about the announcement, compared to drones powered by lithium batteries, DMI’s hydrogen technology yields 3-to-1 energy density characteristics. The new H2 technology significantly increases the flight time of the drone to 2 – 5 hours, with the length in flight time depending on a variety of factors, such as weather and payload weight. Beyond boosting flight time, the new H2 technology being tested has environmental sustainability benefits. CO2 emissions are lowered to “zero” and drops of water is the only by-product that is produced from the battery technology. Testing the hydrogen technology will help both companies offer new advanced options. ➡️PLAY THIS HYDROGEN NEWS ARTICLE Identifying new technologies is critical for advancing DroneUp’s mission to scale up commercial drone operation in verticals that include delivery, inspection, commercial real-estate and so on. Testing DMI’s hydrogen fuel cell power packs for the purpose of increasing flight time and lowering carbon emissions will be advantageous to both companies. It will help enhance their efforts as well as eventually offering new advanced options for the drone industry as a whole. The H2 tech could be a game changer. CTO of DroneUp, John Vernon, said in the news release that “The technology industry evolves incredibly quickly and the drone industry evolves even faster. It is absolutely critical we explore new technology like this and continue testing and validating how it can help us move forward.” Vernon added that the hydrogen technology testing partnership is “really interesting” due to the fact that it addresses two of commercial drone services’ major aspects, which are increasing drone flight time and lowering carbon emissions. “We’re really excited to see the results from this as it could be a significant game-changer for the industry.” This is good for the place where they are delivering the packets that there is no pollution from the drone and that it has a far longer range than one with a battery. The problematic thing is that so far, I do not see any very green electricity, as windmills are not green when being made or disposed of and same is for solar cells. Neither windmills nor solar cells last very long time. New windmills will last twice as long as solar cells will before the cells will deliver far less electricity as when new and useful, but as I can see the greenest electricity could come from either river running down mountains through turbines or from the power of the tide as both these are mechanical converters that make the electricity and they can last much more than 5 times compared with the much-used windmills and solar cells.

Congratulation and welcome to the forum.

It was not April fools day? So why and where did it go wrong?

Farmers in Spain think otherwise. Do not know any farmers in Italy. People living on low land islands think the rich nations should do something as though they have lived there for several generations, now they have to move. What I think will get me thrown out of lexusownersclub.co.uk

When reading what police is doing around the world, it is easy to understand that they have no time to solve crime as they have to cover up their own.

I suppose this does not matter as all change or problems with climate is nothing but a hoax and told un in order to reduce our freedom to drive cars and pollute as usual. The glaciers in the Alps melted at a record speed in 2022 Yesterday at 10.19 from Ritzau The ice on the glaciers in the Alps decreased by an average of 3.5 meters last year, according to a climate report from the EU. Warm weather and limited amounts of snow from above led to a significant shrinkage of the ice on the glaciers of the Alps last year. In fact, the ice on the glaciers in the Alps was melting faster than ever before recorded. This is what the EU's climate monitoring Copernicus writes in its annual report, European State of the Climate. The report was published on Thursday. On average, 3.5 meters of ice melted on the glaciers in the Alps. For example, this means that six percent of the ice mass on the glaciers in Switzerland disappeared during 2022. The significant loss of ice on the mountain range in the central part of Europe was due to unusually little snow falling during the winter months. The layer of snow protects the underlying ice from melting. Less snow therefore means a greater risk of melting. In addition, the summer featured unusually high temperatures. That the lakes in Spain and France start drying out already now instead of in mid summer is of course also of no interest and importance. I am a bit worried about the availability of fine olive oil and a couple of other things, but that is only me. And now you can walk to a former tiny island in the Garda lake. Almost forgot to mention this: European food production at risk The drought can cause major problems with food production in Europe. In northern Italy lies the Po Plain, which is highly dependent on water from the Po River. At the same time, over half of the EU's rice production takes place here, which may be affected by the lack of rainfall. Also in southern France, a new drought could be catastrophic, as the cultivation of apples, plums, walnuts, hazelnuts, tomatoes, strawberries, cereals and other seeds is highly dependent on water from local water reservoirs. But maybe that is all natural and we do not have to think about that. All is like it is supposed to be!
