HyFlux’s Superconducting Motor Might Work. Hydrogen Aviation Is The Hard Part.
HyFlux has an unusually interesting hydrogen-aviation proposition because the technology at its centre appears somewhat credible, if incredibly difficult to engineer and maintain. The UK company wants to exploit the extreme cold of liquid hydrogen already carried aboard a future hydrogen aircraft to cool a fully superconducting electric motor. Superconductivity … [continued]

Ports Need More Capital As Their Bulk Cargo Base Shrinks
Ports are being asked to make infrastructure decisions that will last thirty, forty or fifty years while several of the assumptions that paid for their existing infrastructure are changing at the same time. Ships are getting larger, requiring deeper channels, larger cranes and more capable tug fleets. Climate disruption is … [continued]

Netherlands Cuts 2040 Hydrogen Forecast By Almost 60%
Three years is a long time in hydrogen strategy. The Netherlands’ 2023 National Energy System Plan projected roughly 460 petajoules of gaseous hydrogen demand in 2040. Its 2026 National Energy System Plan update cuts that central estimate to about 200 PJ, a reduction of roughly 57%. This is especially interesting … [continued]

ReFuelEU’s First Year Shows the Mandate Works
Now Europe must unlock e-SAF investment. The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) published today its Annual Technical Report on ReFuelEU Aviation (for 2025 data), providing the first full picture of the EU sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) market since the Regulation’s mandatory targets came into force. The report sends an … [continued]
