VONROLL HYDRO’s Post

Check out this drone photo of Germany's Pit Thermal Energy Storage (PTES) in Meldorf, featured in DER SPIEGEL, one of Germany's leading news magazines: https://lnkd.in/dcwqsY-x PTESs use solar and waste heat to power district heating for homes and public buildings by storing heat in summer months to be used in winter months. The PTES in Meldorf is capable of holding 50 million liters of water, stores and recycles energy efficiently, and will play a role in Germany's shift towards a carbon-neutral heating. A key element of the Meldorf PTES is the GSE HDH high-temperature liner that was used in the pit to prevent the water from seeping into the ground and also used at the very top as the first layer covering water in the pit. #GSE #PTES #RenewableEnergy

🆕🏛️ New policy paper released by the German Hydrogen Association: The German Hydrogen Association Deutscher Wasserstoff-Verband (DWV) e.V. recently presented the “HyGuide 2030”, a comprehensive policy guideline outlining Germany’s transformation into the leading hydrogen market economy by 2030. 👉 The HyGuide lists 85 concrete measures, developed in collaboration with the association’s members, to strengthen Germany’s industrial and technological leadership while achieving the 2045 climate neutrality targets. 👉 Further information and download: https://lnkd.in/dpyMjAEc #ptx #hydrogen #energy #industry #decarbonization #growth

News alert: We have launched our new project "Swiss PV circle" to strengthen the circular economy transition for the Swiss PV industry together with SENS eRecycling, Swissolar and many more partners, supported by the Bundesamt für Energie BFE. We will primarily focus on developing data-enhanced reuse business models to ensure that PV panels will be utilized most efficiently in a second life cycle. If you are interested in more information about the background, partners and project scope, visit the project website, where I also answer three questions about the circular economy and the PV industry: https://lnkd.in/e5cK-rgd Reach out to my colleagues or me if you have any further questions about the project.

Implementation of the energy transition in Switzerland. Parliament is arguing about the future of biotopes. What price should Switzerland pay to move away from fossil energy? The discussion is now entering the decisive phase. https://lnkd.in/e3GP9qkZ

Hydrogen in the Region: Today Baden-Württemberg  Publication of the permission guide line for electrolyser  (Yes in Germany it is a regional matter)

Norway-Germany #hydrogen and CO2 pipelines - following completion of a feasibility study the Norwegian and German Governments have agreed to set up a joint task force to work on their plans to transport hydrogen and CO2 between the two countries with the aim to have the required infrastructure in operation by 2030. The task force will examine the various alternatives, including exploring potential synergies between different projects in the North Sea and recommend how barriers can be overcome. #energysecurity #climateaction #wasserstoff

Great news for eastern Germany and the entire hydrogen industry! Eastern Germany joins forces for a world without fossil fuels 🤝 The six states of Berlin, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia founded the “Initiative für Wasserstoff in Ostdeutschland” (Initiative for Hydrogen in Eastern Germany). The aim is to bring politics, businesses and science in eastern Germany closer together on the topic of #GreenHydrogen in order to fully utilize its huge potential for the energy transition and climate neutrality.   🎉 As a company that has its headquarters and R&D in Dresden, produces stacks in Limbach-Oberfrohna and is involved in projects such as the Bad Lauchstädt energy park, we are particularly proud that eastern Germany is increasingly becoming a powerhouse for green hydrogen. This is why we are also part of the HyDresden initiative, for example, which was recently launched. The potential of the hydrogen industry in eastern Germany is enormous – and we're ready to continue contributing to this success story.    Click here to read more about the new initiative: https://lnkd.in/eVRYk5fr   #HydrogenIsTheAnswer

Decarbonizing heat supply is a major challenge. Doing it securely even more so. Here’s an example of how to do it.

We are the faces of NORTHSEA HYDROGEN - Andreas Wellbrock Marcus Rönner Axel Urban and joint forces with our teams of Hy5 Management GmbH ONP Management GmbH HR Group HF Offshore to pusch #offshoreelectrolysis with our sprinter appraoch. Time is running fast and like nothing is done. Therefore, we urgently need the criteria for the tender of the SEN-1 seabed lease in the North Sea. The development of an #offshoreelectrolysis project will take at least 5 to 7 years. The longer we have to wait for further development the later we will be able to develop this technology to market maturity and use it to achieve our climate protection goals. The time until #2050 is very short to reach our already ambitious goals! Bernd Westphal Andreas Rimkus AquaConsult bremenports GmbH & Co. KG Niedersachsen Ports GmbH & Co.
