Germany and Europe are on their way to a hydrogen future. The strategy aims to build electrolysis plants for hydrogen production with a total output of 10 GW in Germany by the year 2040. Hydrogen is set to be used in industry and in the future also in road traffic, finally heralding a shift away from gasoline and diesel fuel.
