hydrogen fuelcells
research highlights
Segment | Number of vehicles | Fuel demand (ton H2/year)

railway: 2 1 900
hydrogen fuelcells
research highlights
- Liquid H20: -253C
- 20t per day
- 7kw per kg
- 2C target implies a rise in power production from 20 000 TWh to 150 000 TWh annually
- 95% reduction within 2050. an 88 % renewable share is assumed for the European power system in 2050. 400 GW will still be generated by conventional thermal power plants.
- Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC)
- Liquid Hydrogen Organic Carriers (LHOCs)
- Solid storage & TRANSPORT
- Nor: hydrogen production via electrolysis is exempted from the state electricity grid tariffs (2019)

H2O Hydrogen
MISSION: New world energy systems from 2050.
the hydrogen production first started around 1927.
Main causes
Reducing emissions from the transport sector • Low-emission technologies for the industry • Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) • supplier of renewable energy • Environment-friendly shipping
chemical Processing
• Steam methane reforming (SMR): Pure water vapour is used as oxidant. The reaction requires the introduction of heat (“endothermic”).
• Partial oxidation (POX): Oxygen or air is used as oxidant. The process releases heat (“exothermic”).
• Autothermal reforming (ATR): A combination of SMR and POX. The ratio of the two oxidants is adjusted so that no heat needs to be introduced or discharged (“isothermal”).
