How Far Along are We in the Use of Green Hydrogen?

The smarter E Podcast Episode 33 | January 07, 2021 | Language: German

Hydrogen is the trend topic of the new energy world. For many, the hydrogen economy is a great source of hope. Be it from the political side, which made people sit up and take notice with its national hydrogen strategy in the spring, or on the stock market.

Many are convinced that green hydrogen can help slow climate change and master the energy transition. But how far along are we in the use of green hydrogen, how sustainable is H2, and how much is actually available to us?

Today we talk about this with Jeannette Uhlig, team leader for carbon neutral energy carriers at the German Energy Agency dena.
