Ltd.’s Industrial division, announced that after its most recent award by SK Plug Hyverse, the Group has contracts to build and maintain approximately two dozen liquid-based hydrogen (LH2) fueling stations in South Korea.

“SK Plug Hyverse is a tremendous partner for Nikkiso in South Korea because together we bring exceptional capabilities and people to support South Korea’s progressive approach to establishing a competitive hydrogen economy,” said Peter Wagner, CEO, Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases. “Nikkiso admires South Korea’s productive and pragmatic approach to scaling up the hydrogen economy, and we look forward to further opportunities supporting its efforts.”

“There aren’t many companies that have Nikkiso’s vertically integrated fueling station with in-house liquification systems and trailer loading systems, cryogenic pumps, vacuum insulated pipe, vacuum insulated vessels, cryogenic vaporizer, industrial controls, permitting, installation, and maintenance services,” said Mike Mackey, President, Fueling & Solutions, Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases. “We’ve been building alternative fueling stations since 1998 and are proud that the work we do supports a cleaner, healthier world.”

Several liquid hydrogen stations in South Korea have already been commissioned, successfully fueling buses back-to-back, and ramping up to capacity. The remaining stations in South Korea will be brought online over the next 12 months.

The Federation of Blood Donors says it is ‘hurt’ by the controversy surrounding the exemplary act of the President of Faso

Ouagadougou: The Federation of Voluntary Blood Donor Associations of Burkina Faso (FADOSAB-BF), said it was ‘hurt’ on Wednesday by individuals who doubt the authenticity of blood donation, carried out by President Ibrahim Traoré on June 14, 2024 at the Koulouba presidential palace in Ouagadougou.

‘His Excellency the Head of State has indeed set an example by donating his blood on June 14, 2024 at the Koulouba Palace. We were all there, including those in charge of the National Blood Transfusion Center (CNTS),’ declared FADOSAB-BF President Jean Bosco Zoundi.

Mr. Zoundi responded during a press conference to those who allege that the images of the blood donation session, in which the Head of State is seen donating blood, are archive images from 2023.

According to him, it was before his eyes that Captain Ibrahim Traoré carried out all the recommended steps in terms of blood donation before agreeing to have his own blood collected by qualified agents in this area.

According to him, the presence on the scene
of the director general of the National Blood Transfusion Center, Dr Désiré Nezien, proves that the images in question do not date from 2023, because he was appointed barely three months ago.

FADOSAB says it is hurt by this false information which tarnishes the image of its activities and which discourages voluntary blood donors as well as all stakeholders.

According to the president of the federation, legal proceedings will be taken against the authors of this false information.

As a reminder, a controversy arose over the authenticity of the images showing the President of Faso donating blood on the occasion of World Blood Donor Day.

Before this media release from FADOSAB, the director general, Dr Désiré Nezien, had indicated on the BF television channel that the allegations of archive images from 2023 are false.
