The success of the #EnergyTransition is of extraordinary importance for future generations!!! Winning this race against the clock is fundamental for our future, therefore it is vital not to fall into the same mistakes again and again... Reviewing some of the articles I read recently, I found one again referring to the #German #EnergyTransition that contains some interesting reflections... https://lnkd.in/dMxv95Cz

Today is a big day for the ramp up of the hydrogen economy – a key element of the energy transition! RWE and other companies have received grants from the German federal and state governments to develop large-scale hydrogen projects. RWE has been awarded grants for two projects. They are part of the GET H2 initiative, a unique integrated approach along the entire value chain. Several partners are planning hydrogen production, transport as well as storage infrastructure – a huge effort for the decarbonisation of industry. RWE will receive funding for the construction of a 300-megawatt electrolysis plant in Lingen, Lower Saxony, which will be one of the largest facilities in Europe. The second project is our storage facility in Gronau-Epe, North Rhine-Westphalia, which will help to buffer the fluctuating production of green hydrogen. Furthermore, we are also part of a consortium that is working towards the construction of a 100-megawatt electrolysis plant in Rostock. This is another project that has received a grant. The EU has certified all the projects as “Important Projects of Common European Interest” (IPCEI), which was the basis for the funding commitments. I am very happy that we are moving forward, after more than three years, more than 1,000 pages of documents and countless hours answering detailed questions. I think we can all agree that there are opportunities for speeding up such bureaucratic processes on a European level to uphold Europe’s competitiveness. For today, we can celebrate that the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy is now underway. A massive well done to everyone involved from #TeamRWE and our partners.

Statement: Hydrogen as the Key to the Future of Energy 🌟 The Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz is planning a rigorous dismantling of the gas network by 2045. But is that really the right approach? Dr. Thomas Klaue , CEO of SIQENS GmbH, urges a reassessment of these plans. 💡 Technological openness is the key: In a time when the future of the energy sector is still uncertain, we should not act hastily. The existing gas infrastructure could be used for the transport of green hydrogen, a sustainable solution for industry and communities. 🔍 Careful examination is essential: Why should we destroy a functioning #infrastructure that is already suitable for hydrogen? A parallel use of #gaspipelines and hydrogen pipelines would be efficient and cost-effective. 🚫 No blind action: Instead of pursuing blind activism, we should act rationally. Utilizing existing infrastructure and proven technologies will accelerate #decarbonization and support the #economiclocation of Germany. Together, we can shape a sustainable energy future.

#BalanceNeueEnergien a 100% subsidiary of #VNGAG has acquired another Biogas plant in my home province of Saxony-Anhalt further driving the development of sustainable alternatives for #NaturalGas, since #Biomethane #RNG can 100% substitute fossil #Methane and is 100% backwards compatible with the existing natural gas infrastructure, on top it helps stripping #CO2 from the air and use it either to replace #fossil #Carbon or sequester it permanently and create negative #CO2 emissions.

New article in Deutscher Mittelstands-Bund (DMB) e.V. 🏭 In this insightful piece, our Deputy Head of Sales, Ralph Stemper, discusses why modernizing the grid is crucial for effectively using renewable energy. With high energy costs, the German Mittelstand faces challenges, especially with limited grid capacities for solar power. ⚡ Key points include: 1. Current Grid Limitations 👉 Outdated infrastructure can't handle increasing solar energy production. 2. Challenges for Solar Projects 👉 Many solar installations can't connect to the grid due to local infrastructure and high transformer station costs. 3. Decentralized Energy Supply 👉 Decentralization is needed but requires significant adjustments. 4. Long-term Benefits 👉 Enhancing the grid will make renewable energy more accessible and cost-effective for SMEs.
