Hydrogen Land Saxony

Energy Saxony drives the development and marketing of
future cutting-edge technologies in the fields of energy conversion, storage
and efficiency and, together with its members, initiates projects to
Ensuring a clean energy supply and mobility. The energy carrier hydrogen plays a key role here, as it enables the medium and long-term storage of electrical energy and thus a
cross-sectoral use of volatile renewable energies. “Green hydrogen” is produced when solar, wind or biogas electricity is used for the
electrolysis process is used, in which water is converted into hydrogen and
oxygen is broken down. Among other things, this hydrogen can be used as a fuel for
fuel cell vehicles, which can be used to power pollutant-free
especially for vehicle fleets with high mileages in local and long-distance transportation.
Long-distance transport Advantages such as short refueling times and undiminished ranges
offers. Green hydrogen can be produced via the existing gas infrastructure as
admixture or in methanized form as “synthetic natural gas”, and
used to link the electricity sector with the heating and transport sectors
become. Green hydrogen as an energy carrier thus paves the way for the
energy transition and_CO2-neutral mobility. In Saxony
The “Hydrogen Land Saxony” innovation cluster, which is managed by Energy Saxony and HZwo e.V., has numerous lighthouse projects for this purpose.
