Petersen Everything combined in one unit Infener wants to supply entire neighborhoods with self-sufficient energy 03/13/2025 - The Swiss company Infener wants to promote hydrogen throughout Europe. Decentralized H2 hubs will be used to generate green electricity as well as green heat. The Ecore One is a compact containerized solution that combines various energy technologies in one unit: electrolyzer, fuel cell and battery as well as compressor and a heat pump with its own energy management system or EMS. H2 production is due to start 2027 at a site in the Black Forest, Germany. However, the needs of regional industry are already far greater today. Hydrogen Regions series: HyExpert Havelland The Havelland wants to become even greener 08/29/2023 - Green hydrogen is an important building block of the energy transition. With its help, regenerative energy can be stored and used as needed in a wide variety of sectors. But how will the generation, storage, distribution and use of hydrogen come together? An answer to this question is the goal of the project H2VL of the regional district (Landkreis) Havelland: Various local players along the entire hydrogen value chain are being identified, networked and supported in the implementation of their projects – from production through distribution to use. For this, Havelland is being supported by the German transport ministry, through the hydrogen and fuel cell innovation support program NIP2, with nearly 400,000 euros as one of the 15 winners of the title HyExpert Region.
