As part of the publicly funded Enerport II project, Duisport, one of the world’s largest inland ports, will commission a new terminal with a hydrogen-based supply network during 2024. In the future, most of the electrical and thermal energy required in the port will be generated directly on site from hydrogen in a CO 2 -neutral manner.

Unfortunately, due to our grid situation, electric cars are still too early for this strategic goal in the sense of German climate protection efforts. According to the study, natural gas combustion engines are an ideal technology for transitioning to vehicles powered by hydrogen or “green” methane in the long term.

In addition, MAHLE is presenting its newest systems solutions for battery electric drives, fuel cells and cleaner combustion engines which can also be fueled with hydrogen. This development was sponsored by the Federal Ministry for the Economy and Climate Protection (BMWK). Hydrogen engines. Earlier post.).

Initiated by Porsche and implemented with partners including Siemens Energy and ExxonMobil, production of eFuels from hydrogen and CO 2 using wind energy is expected to start there in mid-2022. These electricity-based synthetic fuels enable nearly-CO 2 -neutral operation of combustion engines.

In the first step, an novel high-temperature technology will process natural gas to obtain hydrogen and carbon. In a subsequent catalytic process step, the hydrogen is then reacted with large volumes of CO 2 , also from other industrial processes, to produce syngas. The engineering responsibility lies with Linde and ThyssenKrupp Uhde.

Böhni emphasized that the production of climate-neutral fuel is key to climate protection and therefore needs to be given a fair chance; he established the Clean Fuel Now initiative at the Federal Parliament in Bern in late 2014. Climate change is happening much faster than we thought a few years ago. Earlier post.).

More specifically, he suggests that other than supporting fundamental R&D, programs to promote alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) “ are not currently warranted for climate protection. This is true whether the fuel is literally carbon-free (electricity or hydrogen) or is chemically carbon-based (hydrocarbon or alcohol).

With respect to the emissions updates, the OEMs must also provide proof that the changes do not negatively impact any other parameters relevant for type approval—such as pollutant and CO 2 emissions, fuel consumption, noise and engine power. In this sense, modern and clean diesel technology can also contribute to climate protection.

Such an approach can indicate policy directions consistent with fostering the conditions that comprehensive analyses imply are necessary for climate protection. Controlling the net CO2 emissions impact of fuels (reducing carbon intensity) Using carbon-free fuels (electricity, hydrogen) produced with low net GHG emissions.
