Germany is a key European hydrogen powerhouse with major automotive OEMs and a strong hydrogen supply chain present. There has been a huge push to understand the role hydrogen can play in decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors and securing energy supplies. Germany was quick to establish itself as a world leader in this space by developing a tangible and practical Hydrogen Strategy that has been supported with major public sector investment and a flurry of outreach to international partners.
Germany offers the following:
- Government support and strategy: one of the most ambitious hydrogen strategies in the world backed by significant public funding. Policy led innovation hub.
- Industrial leadership companies and cross-sector applications (as mentioned above) across the value chain
- Advanced R&D ecosystems – dense network of research institutions working heavily in this space e.g. AVL
- Strong export and collaboration focused – Germany is actively seeking international partnerships
