Visionary projects for a strong hydrogen region in Eastern Germany

From large-scale production through to industrial application in steel, chemicals and refineries, numerous projects using hydrogen technology are in planning in Eastern Germany. The transport infrastructure is a critical factor for the development of the entire value chain for climate neutral hydrogen. Innovative hydrogen projects in Eastern Germany have the potential to fundamentally transform the energy system and successfully launch a sustainable and competitive hydrogen economy.
