The development of the hydrogen economy is in preparation. The central fundamentals for the reliable operation of a climate-neutral hydrogen infrastructure are now to be further deepened in a future-oriented manner – the joint project GET H2 Transhyde is to play a pioneering role.
Schaeffler, one of the largest suppliers of German car parts, is working on a hydrogen project with the Dutch start-up Hydron Energy. The companies are starting a pilot to use seawater to make hydrogen.
critics say pursuing green hydrogen as a fuel source is not the best solution for combatting climate change because it’s inefficient and is often created with carbon-emitting energy sources.
For a variety of industries, sectors, and end-use applications, hydrogen may be the only viable decarbonization alternative. Costs are still high, but this might alter drastically over the next decade as international interest rises as demand and supply side variables, such as increasing carbon pricing, increase.
The part Scotland can play in the UK’s drive to reach neutral greenhouse gas emissions and develop a new sector based on hydrogen is the focus of a new inquiry by Westminster’s Scottish Affairs Committee.
