Germany's Economics Minister, Robert Habeck, recently visited the town of Lingen in northern Germany to inaugurate an electric substation and a test facility for producing green hydrogen. The purpose of the substation is to address the fluctuating nature of solar and wind power generation by distributing electricity from the north coast throughout Germany, thereby increasing the stability of the green electricity grid. Additionally, the pilot facility at RWE's Emsland gas-fired power plant is capable of producing up to 270 kilograms of green hydrogen per hour using electricity sourced from renewable sources. This amount of hydrogen production is significant, with a hydrogen-powered car requiring approximately one kilogram of hydrogen to travel 100 kilometers. During the inauguration event, Minister Habeck emphasized the importance of these developments in driving Germany towards a climate-neutral and sustainable economy, stating that they are key contributions to the success of the energy transition in the country.
