At the end of 2025, Trading Hub Europe GmbH (THE) was appointed as the market area manager for hydrogen and has since been driving the implementation of the corresponding regulations of the Federal Network Agency.
A key element, and a new one in this form, is the establishment of a Data Hub, which will play a crucial role in market communication and processing in the hydrogen market. The tender
In Brussels, the European Resilience Alliance for Clean Hydrogen and Derivatives (ERA) was officially launched in April. This initiative unites leading European energy and industrial companies along the hydrogen value chain. Among them are several key players in the gas infrastructure sector, such as ENAGÁS, FLUXYS, GASGRID FINLAND, NORDION ENERGI, and Open Grid Europe GmbH (OGE). The goal is to a
Rolande GmbH opened a new public bio-LNG filling station at the end of April. Located in Wörth an der Isar (Lower Bavaria), on the A92 motorway between Munich and Deggendorf, the station is easily accessible for heavy goods vehicles. The market leader for bio-LNG in the Netherlands is thus strengthening its network in southern Germany and supporting international corridors towards Austria, the Cze
The German Bundestag is debating today the amendment of the greenhouse gas reduction quota (GHG quota). With a more ambitious increase pathway and a higher sub-quota for renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs), a key impetus is being set for scaling up climate-friendly fuels. Dr. Timm Kehler, CEO of the association Die Gas- und Wasserstoffwirtschaft, comments:
“After lengthy negotiati
EnWG amendment sends a clear signal: gas networks are part of the climate-neutral energy infrastructure
The use of networks for renewable gases must now be reliably secured
Kehler: “Transformation means further developing existing infrastructure—our gas networks are part of the solution.”
Today, the Bundestag is holding the first reading of the amendment to the Energy Industry Act (EnWG). By
Bio-LNG enables climate-friendly heavy-duty transport at significantly lower and more stable costs than diesel. Parliamentary conference “Bio-LNG in Logistics” highlights strong potential and the need for improved framework conditions. Kehler: “Especially in the current energy crisis, domestic Bio-LNG is a real competitive advantage. This should be taken into account in the current discussions on
Lhyfe's German hydrogen project in Lubmin has been acquired by PtX Development GmbH. Together with its financial partner KGAL, the company plans to expand the available land for the project by more than ten hectares to further increase capacity. According to the companies, this could potentially make the project Germany's largest hydrogen project.
The site offers favorable conditions for gigawa
In April, Sunfire unveiled a new pressurized alkaline electrolysis system. According to the company, it achieves an electrolysis capacity of up to 50 megawatts and can reduce overall plant costs by up to 50 percent. The central element is the 30-bar (g) pressurized alkaline stack "HyLink Alkaline 23," with which the modules are equipped.
The system is designed for projects in the three-digit me
The European hydrogen corridor H2med has once again been designated a Project of Common Interest (PCI). The updated EU list also strengthens Germany's connection to the corridor for the first time. This places greater emphasis on access to green hydrogen imports from Southwestern Europe for Germany's energy supply. Key sub-projects such as the BarMar (Barcelona–Marseille) and CelZa (Portugal–Spain
The Nordic-Baltic hydrogen partnership is taking further shape: SEFE, the BHC consortium, and project developers are advancing the integration of production and transport infrastructure in a coordinated manner. The focus is on a systemic approach in which supply, transport, and demand are developed in parallel to accelerate market ramp-up.
A key project is “CIS Liepāja” in Latvia, which i
Germany’s LNG terminals made an important contribution to security of supply over the past winter. Current figures from Deutsche Energy Terminal GmbH and Deutsche ReGas show a significant increase in send-out volumes, underlining the importance of this infrastructure for the German gas market.
In the first quarter of 2026, send-out via the LNG terminals operated by Deutsche Energy Terminal reac
With real-world testing of heavy-duty trucks powered by hydrogen combustion engines, Volvo Trucks is taking another step toward CO₂-neutral transport solutions. Volvo’s hydrogen-powered trucks are set to establish new benchmarks in performance – offering higher energy efficiency, lower fuel consumption, and greater engine power than conventional hydrogen combustion technologies.
