To achieve our ambitious climate targets and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, we are pushing the production, transport, and use of green hydrogen. Together with partners from numerous industrial sectors, we are implementing local projects and promoting the establishment of a green hydrogen economy via import routes. We address the entire value chain – from hydrogen production, to transport, to use in our customers’ processes.
Only by developing diversified hydrogen import routes will it be possible to meet the rapidly growing demand for green hydrogen at the competitive prices needed to secure Europe’s industrial base. Dependence on fossil fuels is simultaneously being significantly reduced. We are therefore expanding our value chain to include international production, transport, and marketing of green hydrogen. Here too international partnerships and networks are crucial to success.
The use of green hydrogen is particularly in demand in those sectors where the possibilities for electrification are limited. That is why we are developing green hydrogen projects together with consumers from hard-to-abate sectors such as steel and (petro-)chemicals, as well as the mobility sector. With the know-how of an integrated energy company, our experts draw on their solid experience in power plant construction and electricity trading to expand VERBUND’s portfolio to include green hydrogen. Production on our customers’ sites ensures immediate and reliable availability of green hydrogen.
