Hydrogen value creation requires people with know-how: How the “H2HUB in Saxony-Anhalt” learning alliance supports the hydrogen ramp-up

A successful hydrogen ramp-up requires more than infrastructure. It also depends on the people who design, operate, and continuously improve it. This is precisely where a key challenge arises: The demand for skills is growing faster than traditional training and continuing education structures have so far been able to meet on a comprehensive basis and in a way tailored to specific target groups.

Hydrogen Lab Leuna: Testing and validating hydrogen electrolysis systems on an industrial scale

The production of green hydrogen will be a key element of the energy transition. To meet the growing demand in the coming decades, production capacities in Europe must be massively expanded.

OPTILESSi – A toolchain for optimal local energy system sizing and operation

Since the beginning of the energy transition in the electrical power system in Germany, development has shifted toward decentralization. Contrary to the legacy power system with big central power plants, power systems with a high share of renewables have a decentralized topology with distributed power generation.
