HD Hyundai develops Korea's first high-pressure electric propulsion drive
HD Hyundai has announced that its subsidiary HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering has developed a Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) structure high-pressure propulsion drive product. The development marks Korea's first 'high-pressure propulsion drive' for electric propulsion vessels, according to the company. Electric propulsion ships are increasingly in demand for their superior manoeuvrability and lower noise levels compared to traditional diesel engines. The propulsion drive developed by HD Hyundai is claimed to help in controlling the electric motor's output, impacting ship performance, power quality for high-power weapon systems, and overall survivability. The onshore verification of this technology marks a step towards the localisation of electric propulsion ships in Korea. The demonstration event was attended by HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering CEO Kim Sung-joon, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Special Vessel Business Division Head Joo Won-ho, and HD Hyundai Electric CEO Kim Young-ki, alongside officials from organisations involved in ship electrification. Seong-jun said: 'The high-pressure propulsion drive product developed by HD Hyundai is a symbol of HD Hyundai's shipboard electrification technology and we plan to spur commercialisation and lead the development of K-maritime defence's global market with domestic technology.' The project, initiated in 2022 with domestic experts from Seoul National University and Kyungpook National University, led to the creation of the MMC structure high-voltage propulsion drive in December 2024. This product features large capacity, high voltage, flexible power module configuration, and reduced system volume and weight by more than 20%. Previously, only two companies in Europe and the US had reportedly commercialised such high-pressure propulsion drives. HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering is now collaborating with various institutions, including the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute and Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Equipment Research Institute, to commercialise the MMC structure high-pressure propulsion drive by 2027. In related news, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries and the Korean Register have also signed an MoU to develop a very large ethane carrier (VLEC). "HD Hyundai develops Korea's first high-pressure electric propulsion drive" was originally created and published by Ship Technology, a GlobalData owned brand.

UK to install over 100,000 EV chargepoints
The UK Government is set to install more than 100,000 electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints across England. Future of Roads Minister Lilian Greenwood announced that the government, along with industry partners, will deploy these chargepoints over the coming years. This expansion will add to the existing 80,000 public chargepoints available in the UK, making overnight charging more feasible for EV drivers. According to the statement from Greenwood and the UK Department for Transport, the installation of these chargepoints is supported by the £381m ($519m) Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund, which aims to assist industry and local authorities in England. The LEVI fund is part of the government's broader £4bn investment to facilitate the switch to EVs and secure global trade deals that benefit British carmakers. With the initiative, the government is hoping to tap into a multibillion-pound industry, create high-paid jobs, and contribute to the Plan for Change by increasing disposable income for families. Greenwood said: 'This government is powering up the EV revolution by rolling out a chargepoint every 29 minutes, and our support to roll out over 100,000 local chargepoints in England shows we are committed to making even more progress. 'We are delivering our Plan for Change by investing over £4bn to support drivers make the switch while backing British carmakers through international trade deals, creating jobs, boosting investment and securing our future.' Chargepoint operator Believ recently announced a £300m private investment for 30,000 new chargepoints across the UK. Private investment is expected to reach £6bn to install tens of thousands of chargepoints by 2030. The UK Government is also collaborating with local councils to expedite this rollout, with Suffolk County Council being the first to contract with a chargepoint operator. Believ CEO Guy Bartlett said: 'It is fantastic to see government and private industry working together to accelerate the EV charging rollout. Collaboratively, we recognise the scale of investment required and the urgency of the need. 'Confidence in EVs will continue to grow as drivers see more infrastructure going into the ground. At Believ, we are very proud to be at the heart of this journey.' According to Startline Motor Finance's May Used Car Tracker, 72% of UK drivers would transition to an electric vehicle if it provided a 250-mile range with just a five-minute charge. "UK to install over 100,000 EV chargepoints " was originally created and published by Motor Finance Online, a GlobalData owned brand.

Parker: Calgary firm Carbon Upcycling turns industrial waste into valuable cement products
Calgary-based Carbon Upcycling is making great strides in its mission to convert carbon emissions and industrial waste byproducts into valuable, local materials for low-carbon cement production. Its groundbreaking technology offers a productive solution for CO2 emissions and industrial waste materials by upcycling them into low-carbon supplementary cement products. In the few years since it was launched in 2015, the company has attracted the interest of a large number of major cement companies and has forged a strategic partnership with TITAN Group, one of the world's leading international businesses in the building and infrastructure materials industry. The companies entered a memorandum of agreement earlier this month to explore the commercial development of Carbon Upcycling's technology for producing local, low-carbon building materials. The collaboration builds on TITAN's earlier investment in the Calgary company and underscores both companies' shared commitment to accelerating the decarbonization of the building materials industry. 'Expanding the scope of our partnership with Carbon Upcycling from investment to project exploration aims to scale up production of innovative, high-performance cementitious solutions in line with our Green Growth Strategy 2026,' says Leonidas Canellopoulos, chief sustainability and innovation officer of TITAN Group. 'This initiative not only highlights the importance of localized production but also serves as an important model for integrating low-carbon solutions into mainstream industrial processes.' The scientist with the vision of an inclusive, equitable world where carbon is a sustainable resource — shaping the future of humanity — is Apoorv Sinha, co-founder and CEO of Carbon Upcycling. Born in Baha, a small province in the northeast area of India, he was brought up in Kuwait where his father had moved the family to work in the oil and gas industry. Sinha's education took him to the U.S., where he earned his chemical engineering degree at Georgia Institute of Technology. He says he was attracted to Calgary as an energy hub with a reputation for innovation — a good place to build a business. In 2014, along with a couple of friends, they entered an Emissions Reduction Alberta challenge for the most innovative technologies that would convert CO2 emissions into valuable products. The result was a $500,000 grant that kick-started the launch of Carbon Upcycling the following year, and the opportunity to work with researchers at the University of Calgary as well as others in university labs in Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal. Sinha says the research has focused on the use of local waste materials — ash, slag and clay-based tailings — that are found everywhere and can be chemically activated into a fine powder to be blended into cement. Burnco has become a valuable Calgary partner using the product from two Carbon Upcycle demonstration plants in the southeast area of the city, enabling it to reduce imported additives by using a local product. Sinha and his team have kept up an aggressive momentum that has attracted a number of global partnerships with industry, academia and communities. Three of the world's largest cement manufacturers (TITAN, CRH and Cemex) have invested in the company, and following a $32.4-million Series A financing round in June 2023, private investments have reached $70 million. Another large investment is expected to be announced in the coming weeks. Currently a first-of-its-kind commercial facility is under construction at the Ash Grove cement plant in Mississauga, Ont., that will be able to use local feedstock from steel plants. Carbon Upcycling has blossomed into a strong Canadian tech company built and commercialized in Canada, able to attract huge investments that will be beneficial to the local Calgary economy. It employs around 40 people here, consisting mainly of engineers, research and development, and operations, plus others in the U.S., Mexico, Belgium, Denmark and Germany — important since countries have different standards that locals are better to interpret. To date, the company has secured 13 patents and filed for another 93 to protect its technology around the world. While the G7 summit is being held at Kananaskis, the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation in Agriculture is holding its agriculture and food security forum at Olds College with the theme of cultivating tomorrow's agriculture today. The 250 invited delegates will be at the forum and an additional 1,000 guests will attend online. David Parker appears regularly in the Herald.
