Germany is at the forefront of hydrogen development, with several major projects and regions focusing on both green hydrogen production and hydrogen infrastructure. Here are some of the key regions and projects:

Northern Germany: Hydrogen Hub

  • North Sea and Baltic Sea Offshore Wind: These regions are crucial for green hydrogen production due to the extensive offshore wind capacity that can generate the electricity needed for electrolysis.
  • H2Global Program: Germany is heavily investing in green hydrogen through the H2Global initiative, with a focus on importing and producing green hydrogen in the north. Home (h2-global.org)
  • Hamburg Green Hydrogen Hub: The city of Hamburg is working on large-scale hydrogen projects, including plans to develop a hydrogen pipeline network. HGHH – Hamburg Green Hydrogen Hub

Ruhr Area (North Rhine-Westphalia)

  • Hydrogen Industrial Hub: The Ruhr area, traditionally known for its coal and steel industries, is now transitioning towards hydrogen. ThyssenKrupp and other major industrial players are piloting hydrogen-based steel production in this region. The Ruhr region – A new Hydrogen Valley (thyssenkrupp.com)
  • HyLand Program: North Rhine-Westphalia is part of the HyLand program, promoting hydrogen use across industrial sectors and transportation. HyLand – Hyland
  • Refhyne Project: Located in Wesseling, this is one of Europe’s largest hydrogen electrolysis plants, designed to produce green hydrogen for industrial use. REFHYNE – Clean Refinery Hydrogen for Europe

Bavaria

Berlin-Brandenburg

Thuringia and Saxony-Anhalt

  • HYPOS (Hydrogen Power Storage & Solutions East Germany): Focused on building a green hydrogen economy in central Germany, particularly in Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia, this initiative includes projects aimed at using hydrogen in energy storage, mobility, and industry.
