It is considered the central component of the energy transition: hydrogen. Now the establishment of a so -called core network begins in Germany to bring it to its users. It is largely based on existing natural gas lines. How well are you good for hydrogen? … more
A network coated with a new catalyst effectively captures nitrogen and hydrogen from the air and convert them into ammonia. Farmers could make their own fertilizer … more
High hopes for the energy transition have been resting on hydrogen for several years: As an energy source, it is intended to intercept the seasonal fluctuations in electricity production that arise from the increasing use of solar and wind energy. The idea is that you use the excess electricity from sun and windy phases to … more
Iron oxide powder can serve to save green hydrogen seasonally and to give it back if necessary, how a pilot test demonstrates … more
Some archaes have special enzymes with which they can use hydrogen as an energy source. These could now revolutionize our industrial hydrogen production … more
The surprisingly extreme drought of Venus is due to a process in which hydrogen atoms are transported into space from the atmosphere, suggest study results … more
In order to create clean fuels such as hydrogen with the help of solar energy, catalysts are needed. A new study shows how they can be improved easily and inexpensively … more
Even on the early earth, hydrogen supplied energy for the first bacteria. Researchers have now decoded what made this chemically complex process possible at the time … more
In northern France, researchers have apparently found something that shouldn’t actually exist: large natural hydrogen reservoirs underground. This “white” hydrogen could advance the climate -neutral future of Europe enormously … more
Green hydrogen is indispensable for a climate -neutral future. A new project shows how large quantities can be created: on the open sea with floating wind turbines – including safe storage and transport in tanks with organic oils … more
