Todays Latest Updates: 25 June 2026

Biogas: Denmark. BioCirc opened the world’s largest biogas-based CCS plant in Vesthimmerland. The plant is the first of five CCS plants in the company’s overall CCS rollout and marks the beginning of BioCirc’s BECCS platform with CO₂ capture and storage at five of the company’s eight biogas plants. By leveraging multiple value streams from biogas operations. The CCS plant in Vesthimmerland removes 32,500 tons of CO₂ annually. The CO₂ is captured as part of biogas production, after which the liquid CO₂ is shipped to INEOS’ Greensand Future CO₂ storage facility in the Danish part of the North Sea and pumped deep below the seabed.

Hydrogen: Denmark. Project developer Hy2gen is eyeing a 2028 start-of-construction date for its 100MW Albatros green hydrogen plant in Denmark, which secured almost €140m ($158.9m) in subsidies through an EU auction. Having secured 10-year subsidies of €0.97/kg ($1.10) through the third European Hydrogen Bank auction, the firm said the 14,400-tonne-per-year plant could be online by 2031. Link 25/06/2026.

Hydrogen: Germany. EWE Netz GmbH, part of German energy supplier EWE AG, and its partner Gastransport Nord GmbH have received a planning approval for a hydrogen pipeline which will be connected to a planned 320-MW electrolyser in the city of Emden, Germany. The pipeline project, called H2Coastlink 1 HEL Hydrogen Transport Pipeline Emden–Leer, involves the construction and operation of a pipeline of about 23.5 km, connecting Emden with the city of Leer. The pipeline is part of the major initiative Clean Hydrogen Coastline, which covers the production, storage, transport and use of the clean fuel. According to EWE’s website, the pipeline will connect the Emden electrolyser with Gasunie Deutschland’s future hydrogen network HyPerLink and with H2Coastlink 3, another pipeline project of RWE.
