Rolls-Royce intends to support research into green fuels in the Lausitz region of eastern Germany together with the State of Brandenburg, Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus and other industrial partners. Synthetic fuels are a decisive factor in energy transition and the use of renewable energies.

Relying on a higher share of efficient, low-emission combined cycle power plants and wind energy could save €150 billion (US$200 billion) by 2030 while attaining the same CO 2 targets, Siemens says. The country should give greater priority to high-efficiency combined cycle power plants and wind power, the company suggests.

Siemens Gamesa and Siemens Energy are joining forces to develop an innovative solution that fully integrates an electrolyzer into an offshore wind turbine as a single synchronized system to produce green hydrogen directly. It is a prime example of enabling us to store and transport wind energy, thus reducing the carbon footprint of economy.

But the focus is not on hydrogen fuel cell vehicles that utilize electricity for propulsion, they’ll be developing internal combustion engines that burn hydrogen in lieu of gasoline — with the assumption benign that they’ll produce fewer carbon dioxide emissions. That seems to be the new trend. But such a breakthrough seems a long way off.
