Literature
Ten Years of HZwei News
Ten years ago, Hydrogeit Verlag printed its first issue of the
HZwei magazine
German counterpart of H2-international
Entitled “H2Tec” in 2000, the Magazine for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells had been published for six years prior under SunMedia before the people responsible for it intended to go their separate ways – because the industry hadn’t advanced as quickly as they had expected.
Every six months and in comparably simple layout, H2Tec had reported about the activities in the H2 and fuel cell industry on no more than 20 pages. A lot has happened since then: Circulation increased to 4,500 and the time between issues was cut in half. The number of pages grew as well – first to 32 and meanwhile to 56.
After ten years, HZwei’s editors can now rightly claim to have created the only well-established long-running trade publication on hydrogen and fuel cells across the German-speaking region.
