German energy ministers speed up hydrogen

In Saxony-Anhalt, discussions between the federal states’ energy ministers took place. Their objective is to encourage the growth of the hydrogen economy. Willingmann, the conference’s chairman, predicts that we “won’t ever be able to totally dispense with energy imports.”

Germany’s hydrogen economy is being pushed forward at a rapid pace by the federal and state energy ministers. Many applications will be discussed during the department heads’ meeting in Merseburg, Saxony-Anhalt, which starts today. According to Armin Willingmann, the energy minister for Saxony-Anhalt, the federal government should swiftly incorporate matching EU criteria into national law. The leader of the SPD is in charge of the Conference of Energy Ministers this year.

Willingmann believes that imports will continue to play a significant role in the economy. In essence, he said, “you have to accept that the world’s fourth-largest economy won’t be energy independent. Although we can increase our independence, “energy imports will never be totally eliminated.” Because of this, European networking in the energy sector is crucial, and trustworthy global partners are required. “In the energy sector, nation-state solutions are completely ludicrous.”

Willingmann emphasised that hydrogen should safeguard the energy source for industry in the future. “We will never be able to make it in the necessary quantities on our own. As a result, we continue to rely on global partners that may find this business model to be intriguing.” The adoption of lower electricity pricing for industrial businesses is another topic the department chiefs want to discuss during the meeting.

Robert Habeck, the Green Party’s federal economics minister, has previously made known that he intends to put a proposal for a tax on industrial power. Energy prices in Germany are quite high by comparative standards, which has caused the economy some concern.

At the meeting, 17 different draught resolutions will be addressed. Accelerating planning and approval processes will also be important for the grid infrastructure, the European solar industry’s rehabilitation, and the energy transition. On Thursday afternoon, the results will be announced.
