They aim to demonstrate that CO 2 -neutral hydrogen can be produced in a cost-effective manner and intend to facilitate the storage of electricity. Solar and wind energy generation depends on the weather and is subject to significant fluctuations. By converting electricity to gas, solar and wind power become storable.
