【Industry】ICIS data: Northwest Europe ammonia to hydrogen cost below 10 euros/kg
Due to continued weak ammonia demand, ICIS (Independent Commodity Intelligence Services) data Northwest Europe ammonia-to-hydrogen valuations continue down the road, falling below the €10/kg mark for the first time since late June.
According to ICIS data, the Northwest European ammonia-to-hydrogen valuation fell further by €0.07/kg to €9.99/kg and is now more than €2.50/kg below the assessment made at the beginning of October, narrowing the premium to the low-carbon cost of hydrogen production in the Netherlands.

【Industry】Hyperion Motors plans to deploy a mobile hydrogen refueling station to support its XP-1 hydrogen fuel cell supercar
Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle Network According to foreign media reports, Hyperion Motors plans to deploy its self-developed mobile hydrogen refueling station, Hyperion Hyper, to support its XP-1 hydrogen fuel cell supercar, as there is little hydrogen refueling infrastructure available.
Hyperion Hyper mobile hydrogen refueling stations, which can also be equipped with DC fast chargers for battery electric vehicles, will be deployed faster than traditional infrastructure and can be repositioned as needed to meet real-time demand, Hyperion said in a press release.
According to Hyperion, hydrogen can be produced on-site through water electrolysis, powered by solar panels mounted on the roof of each unit to ensure that the hydrogen produced is truly green.
