The areas of potential cooperation include upstream and downstream businesses, engineering and construction, oilfield services, carbon capture and hydrogen.

Hydrogen is becoming a more versatile fuel, however, and is receiving interest in energy storage, as a transportation fuel, as a fuel for electricity generation, and as a fuel for heating.

Green means the hydrogen has been made using electricity and from renewable sources. But as with electric cars, the environmental footprint is determined by the power mix carbon intensity if it is connected to the grid.

A single nuclear power plant has the potential to generate enough hydrogen to decarbonise the heating of one million homes or 40,000 hydrogen buses from a site no more than a few square miles in size, with technology that is available today.

Through the collaboration, KBR’s market-leading energy advisory services team and Terrestrial Energy will analyse the integration of Terrestrial Energy’s Integral Molten Salt Reactor (IMSR) nuclear cogeneration technology for use in green ammonia and hydrogen production.

The purchase would be yet another shot in the arm for Adani, who has been seeking global investors and has committed to spend as much as $70 billion by 2030 across the green-energy value chain.

H2Hubs will create networks of hydrogen producers, consumers, and local connective infrastructure to accelerate the use of hydrogen as a clean energy carrier.

In March alone, wind (1,418-MW) and solar (240-MW) accounted for 100% of the new capacity brought on-line for the month.

India, one of the world’s biggest fossil fuel importers, is also seeking to cut its reliance on oil given its import bill is expected to almost double to $300 billion in the coming decade

The Vietnamese government has agreed to increase the capacity of the Sơn La hydropower plant on the Black River in Ít Ong, Mường La District, Sơn La Province, from 2.4 GW to 3.2 GW.
