Alors que de plus en plus d’autobus et de poids lourds cherchent à réduire leurs émissions de carbone tout en conservant leurs capacités de conduite sur de longues distances, de nombreux opérateurs de flottes, autorités de transport et agences se tournent vers l’hydrogène liquide comme solution pour les remplissages rapides et les itinéraires de longue distance. L’expérience de Nikkiso dans le développement et la fabrication de pompes cryogéniques depuis plus de 70 ans et de stations de ravitaillement en carburants alternatifs depuis 26 ans attire des entreprises telles que SK Plug Hyverse qui recherchent des partenaires capables de contribuer à la croissance de l’infrastructure et de l’économie de l’hydrogène en Corée du Sud.

« SK Plug Hyverse est un partenaire formidable pour Nikkiso en Corée du Sud, car, ensemble, nous mettons toutes nos compétences et nos collaborateurs exceptionnels au service de l’approche progressive de la Corée du Sud dans l’établissement d’une économie de l’hydrogène compétitive », a déclaré Peter Wagner, PDG de Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases. « Nikkiso admire l’approche productive et pragmatique de la Corée du Sud pour développer l’économie de l’hydrogène, et nous attendons avec impatience d’autres occasions de soutenir ses efforts. »

« Il n’y a pas beaucoup d’entreprises qui disposent de la station de ravitaillement verticalement intégrée de Nikkiso avec des systèmes de liquéfaction internes et des systèmes de chargement de remorques, des pompes cryogéniques, des tuyaux isolés sous vide, des cuves isolées sous vide, des vaporisateurs cryogéniques, des contrôles industriels, des services d’autorisation, d’installation et de maintenance », a déclaré Mike Mackey, Président, Ravitaillement en carburant et solutions, Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases. « Nous construisons des stations de ravitaillement alternatives depuis 1998 et nous sommes fiers que notre travail contribue à un monde plus propre et plus sain. »

Plusieurs stations d’hydrogène liquide ont déjà été mises en service en Corée du Sud, ravitaillant avec succès des autobus l’un après l’autre, et augmentant leur capacité. Les autres stations en Corée du Sud seront mises en service au cours des douze prochains mois.

“Não há muitas empresas que tenham estação de abastecimento verticalmente integrada da Nikkiso com sistemas internos de liquefação e sistemas de carregamento de reboques, bombas criogênicas, tubos isolados a vácuo, vasos isolados a vácuo, vaporizadores criogênicos, controles industriais, serviços de licenciamento, instalação e manutenção”, disse Mike Mackey, Presidente de Abastecimento e Soluções da Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases. “Construímos estações de abastecimento alternativos desde 1998 e estamos orgulhosos de que o trabalho que fazemos apoia um mundo mais limpo e saudável.”

Systematic power cuts could take place if needed – ministry

Systematic power cuts could take place if needed, Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy announced Thursday. The potential power cuts would start from 11:00 am to 05:00 pm for 1-2 hours, as the ministry's social media platforms will announce the timings per area an hour before, said a ministry statement. Some parts of Kuwait were left without electricity on Wednesday as a power outage exacerbated the scorching summer conditions, while emergency teams were hard at work to restore power to affected areas. The ministry blamed soaring temperatures, which have skyrocketed to some 52 degrees Celsius, for the power cuts, calling on the public to limit consumption during peak hours in order to ensure uninterrupted supply.

Letter from HM the King to Govt. Head: High Instructions to Turn Upcoming Census Results into Structuring Tool for National, Local Public Policies

Rabat - His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist Him, has issued His High Instructions to ensure that the results of the upcoming general population and housing census are treated and analyzed diligently, making them a structuring tool for public policies at both national and local levels. This operation, which will be organized in late summer of this year, is described as 'a valuable tool to achieve our societal project and to properly deploy our development model.' In a letter addressed to Head of Government Aziz Akhannouch, regarding the 7th General Population and Housing Census, the Sovereign stated that the periodic renewal of this operation, at regular intervals every ten years, 'is a thoughtful choice that allows us to be better equipped to accurately grasp the demographic and socio-economic evolution of the country, anticipate the changing needs of our citizens and devise relevant policies accordingly.' The General Population and Housing Census is an operation that, 'thanks to the multitude and importance of generated data and indicators,' represents 'a valuable tool to achieve our societal project and to properly deploy our development model, built on the principles of political democracy, economic efficiency, human development and social and territorial cohesion.' A CENSUS WITH AN EXPANDED SCOPE TO INCLUDE NEW THEMES, ESPECIALLY SOCIAL PROTECTION This new operation of the General Population and Housing Census, the 7th since 1960, aims to be innovative and ambitious. 'Innovative by its approach and the technological means that will be mobilized to collect and process information. Ambitious by broadening the fields of investigation to new themes that are close to our hearts, notably the structuring societal project of social protection,' explained the Sovereign. Thus, the data from the census will allow for the updating of households' socio-economic data, enhancing the efficiency of public policies in this area. A STRATEGICALLY IMPORTANT OPERATION THAT CONCERNS THE WHOLE NATION His Majesty the King emphasized the strategic importance of this decennial event, which concerns the entire nation and beyond: national and international institutions, political, union, and economic actors, civil society, and more importantly, Moroccan families and all foreign residents. The Sovereign noted that this operation requires, beyond the wide mobilization of significant human and logistical resources, a commitment and close, effective coordination of all public administrations, public institutions, decentralized services, as well as regional, provincial, and local authorities and communities. OPTIMAL OPERATIONAL ORGANIZATION AND ACTIVE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION His Majesty the King called on the Minister of the Interior, the High Commissioner for Planning, and all the walis and governors to ensure an optimal operational organization of this census within the allotted time frame, in close coordination with other field operators. Simultaneously, he urged citizens to demonstrate, as usual, total cooperation and active participation in this exercise of general interest by providing reliable and accurate information. The Sovereign also invited the High Commission for Planning, upon completion of the data collection, to ensure their diligent processing and analysis, making sure the results are accessible and usable by decision-makers and concerned actors as soon as possible. "This speed in the exploitation of data will allow, among other things, the rapid identification of emerging trends with a view to developing relevant public policies and adapting various programs for the good of our Nation and the well-being of our people," specified His Majesty the King.
