HyDrive OWL – Analysis of hydrogen potential for the HyExpert region
East Westphalia-Lippe (OWL – Ostwestfalen-Lippe) is a good hydrogen region candidate – this is the conclusion of the “HyDrive OWL” project. During the potential analysis, the districts of Lippe and Minden-Lübbecke as well as the city of Bielefeld, together with the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (Fraunhofer ISE), examined the prerequisites for local production, distribution and use.

Innovation cluster project: ‘High-capacity charging in long-haul truck transport’ (HoLa) is launched
Led by Fraunhofer ISI and under the auspices of the VDA (German Association of the Automotive Industry), the ‘High-capacity charging in long-haul truck transport’ (»Hochleistungsladen im Lkw-Fernverkehr« (HoLa)) is one of three innovation clusters for climate-friendly truck drive technologies recently introduced by the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI).
The future of Made in Germany: Positive interim assessment in implementation of the National Hydrogen Strategy
About a year after the adoption of the National Hydrogen Strategy, the federal cabinet today issued a report with a positive interim assessment of its implementation thus far. Green hydrogen is a central component of the success of the energy transition in Germany, but also for achieving national and global energy and climate goals.
Hydrogen drives Emscher-Lippe forward – regional implementation concept for H2 mobility presented
The Emscher-Lippe region offers good conditions for the broad use of hydrogen in mobility and for synergies with other sectors. That is the conclusion drawn in the implementation concept for a hydrogen mobility region, developed over the course of the HyExperts programme, that was presented today at the e:Motion trade fair in Herten by Bodo Klimpel, District Administrator of the Recklinghausen district, Karin Welge, Mayor of Gelsenkirchen and Bernd Tischler, Mayor of Bottrop.
