4. Use of Hydrogen

Abschnittsübersicht

  • 4. Use of Hydrogen

    Chapter IV Selection: The Use of Hydrogen
    Chapter IV - The Use of Hydrogen by Fabian Carels, HOOU (CC BY)

    If international climate protection goals are to be achieved, fossil energy sources will have to be almost completely replaced by greenhouse gas-neutral energy sources within the next few decades. In addition to the use of biomass and the direct use of renewable electricity, green hydrogen will most likely play a central role in the substitution of fossil energy carriers. 

    In this chapter, you will get to know the areas of application in which green hydrogen can replace fossil fuels in the future. The various applications are classified into the three sectors: "Mobility", "Industry" as well as "Electricity and Heat". After the description of the possible applications, the last section of this chapter discusses in which of these use cases the timely deployment of hydrogen is particularly reasonable and realistic.

    The contents of this chapter are supplemented by lectures of experts from practice:
    Claudio Schwalfenberg; E-Cap Mobility - Integrating Hydrogen in Commercial Vehicles - Examples, Solutions, Challenges
    Maximilian von Bose;  Alstom Transport Deutschland GmbH - Hydrogen driven train – A way forward?
