Hydrogen for north-west Germany

The availability of hydrogen (H2) is becoming an increasingly important location factor, especially for industry and SMEs with energy-intensive processes. The hydrogen core network is therefore creating the infrastructure for the hydrogen ramp-up in Germany.

In our network area in North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony, we are working with our partners to connect the regions to the Germany-wide H2 core network. In total, we are contributing around 1,100 kilometres of lines to the emerging H2 core network through conversion and new construction.

From Cologne to Emsbüren and Emmerich on the Rhine to Hamm in Westphalia, our project teams are working flat out on the "H2 motorways" of tomorrow. We are focusing on honest, proactive dialogue with local authorities, associations, landowners and residents. Because we are convinced that the H2 ramp-up can only succeed together!
