  • TENP III Commissioned – Modern Infrastructure for Gas and Hydrogen Transport from Western to Southern Germany

    The Trans-European Natural Gas Pipeline (TENP III), a joint project by transmission system operators Open Grid Europe (OGE) and Fluxys, has been officially commissioned. The approximately 110-kilometer-long pipeline replaces one strand of the TENP, which runs from the German-Belgian and German-Dutch borders to the Swiss border. In parallel with modernization efforts in recent years, the TENP has p

  • Hintco Opens Second Application Phase

    Hintco, project company of the H2Global Foundation, has started the application phase for the regional lots of its auction for renewable hydrogen and its derivatives. This marks the second round of Hintco's hydrogen program. Germany and the Netherlands are jointly providing 2.5 billion euros for new tenders, as Hintco stated on February 19.

  • Clarification by the EU Commission Raises Only Faint Hopes for Hydrogen Ramp-Up

    The EU Commission has published clarifications regarding the Delegated Act on the assessment of low-carbon fuels, providing more detailed provisions with regard to low-carbon hydrogen. However, Dr Timm Kehler, CEO of Die Gas- und Wasserstoffwirtschaft, remains only cautiously optimistic about the ramp-up of hydrogen, as important questions remain unresolved:
    'We welcome the fact that the Commis

  • CO₂ Storage: Law Creates Urgently Needed Framework for Market Ramp-Up

    The gas and hydrogen industry welcomes the draft bill to amend the Carbon Dioxide Storage Act as an important foundation for the CO₂ market. With its statement, the industry actively contributes its experience in trading and the development of transport and storage infrastructure, and calls for a technology-neutral approach. Kehler: “Hydrogen and CO₂ storage are not opposites – they are both esse

  • Important Milestone for the H2med Hydrogen Import Corridor: BarMar Company Founded

  • H2APEX completes take over of Lubmin hydrogen project


    Rostock-based company H2APEX has taken over the hydrogen project of the company HH2E at the Lubmin site at the beginning of July. In addition to its own project, which has been in existence since 2023, H2APEX now has another project for the production of green hydrogen at the Lubmin site. Due to its direct access to the hydrogen core network ("Wasserstoffkernnetz"), Lubmin is considered one o

  • RAG Austria AG and ENERGIEALLIANZ Austria to back on green hydrogen

    NATURKRAFT, a subsidiary of ENERGIEALLIANZ Austria (EAA), is to start supplying the hydrogen production facility of RAG Austria AG, a member of DIE GAS- und WASSERSTOFFWIRTSCHAFT, at its site in Gampern, Upper Austria. From June 2025 until the end of 2026, the hydrogen plant will be supplied with three gigawatt hours of green electricity from Austrian renewable sources a year. This cooperation wit

  • Hybrid Heating Systems: EWI Study Shows Potential for Heat Transition

    A recent study by the Institute of Energy Economics at the University of Cologne (EWI) shows: Gas hybrid heating systems can be an economically viable and practical alternative to pure heat pumps, particularly in neighborhoods with many unrenovated buildings. Although they cause slightly higher greenhouse gas emissions, their flexible mode of operation - especially during peak load phases - reliev

  • Deutsche ReGas Achieves Largest Gas Feed-In in Germany

    With more than ten TWh of feed-in capacity, the Deutsche Ostsee energy terminal achieved the highest feed-in capacity in its history in the second quarter, while also reaching the highest value among all LNG terminals in Germany. Deutsche Regas is thus currently making an important contribution to ensuring that natural gas storage facilities in Germany can be refilled after the cold winter months.

  • Project of the ‘Research Factory Hydrogen MV’ opened at the Greifswald site


    End of June, a new PtX plasma development environment at the Leibniz Institute for Plasma Researchand Technology (INP) in Greifswald was opened with a visit from State Secretary Jochen Schulte, representing Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania's Minister of Economics, Dr. Wolfgang Blank. The facility is part of the state-wide Forschungsfabrik Wasserstoff MV and marks an important milestone for the f

  • Three Questions to Bengt Bergt, DIE GAS- UND WASSERSTOFFWIRTSCHAFT

    Since June 1, 2025, Bengt Bergt has been Head of Public Affairs at DIE GAS- UND WASSERSTOFFWIRTSCHAFT. The former Member of the Bundestag (SPD) brings extensive experience from both political practice and the energy sector.
