Partners begin work on Energiepark Mainz; hydrogen from renewable sources; power-to-gas

Green Car Congress

Starting next year, the jointly developed pilot plant will produce major quantities of hydrogen using electricity from renewable sources, mostly from nearby wind power stations. This hydrogen can be stored, loaded into tank trailers or fed directly into the natural gas grid, for use in generating heat or electricity.
