A research consortium led by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) has launched an atlas for green hydrogen production in Germany. This online tool identifies suitable sites for electrolyzers, taking into account factors such as industrial demand, availability of renewable energy, and the utilization of by-products.
In Germany, approximately 62% of railway lines are electrified, while in the United States, the figure is less than 1%. For the remaining rail infrastructure, liquid hydrogen could serve as a climate-friendly fuel, according to a study by the SAG Group, a provider of cryogenic tank systems.
