After the results of the h2well-compact joint project were presented to the public at the end of April at the “Hydrogen Day Apolda” at Vereinsbrauerei Apolda, the project participants met for the last time.

What a party! Last Friday, July 12, 2024, the summer semester ceremoniously ended with the annual semester show summaery.

In the research project "Heat transition in Thuringia - safely adapting and decarbonizing heating systems" (WiThStand), the first workshop with the industry advisory board was held at the end of May and the work status was presented at the annual conference of the TMWWDG research groups at the beginning of June.

On Friday, 26 April, the hydrogen supply system consisting of a small hydropower plant, electrolyser, hydrogen storage facility and hydrogen filling station, which was developed as a research demonstrator, was publicly inaugurated in Apolda.

This week, the compact hydrogen filling station designed by Maximator GmbH for refuelling forklifts was set up at the Vereinsbrauerei Apolda.

Progress is being made with the h2-well projects - Today, the electrolyzer was delivered by Kyros Hydrogen Solutions GmbH to the small hydropower plant in Oberroßla near Apolda.

Am Freitag, den 26. April 2024 werden die Ergebnisse des h2well-Vorhabens „h2well-compact“ der Öffentlichkeit vorgestellt. Sie haben die Möglichkeit von 13 bis 17 Uhr bei der Vereinsbrauerei Apolda eine Wasserstofftankstelle mit Gabelstapler und dazugehörigem Wasserstofflieferfahrzeug zu besichtigen. Ebenfalls Teil der Veranstaltung ist die Pop-Up-Ausstellung des imaginata e.V., die spielerisch Einblicke in die physikalischen Zusammenhänge und die technischen Grundlagen der Wasserstofftechnologien gibt.

Under the motto "Hydrogen for Thuringia 2029", a kick-off event took place in Erfurt on 11 March 2024, at which GASCADE Gastransport GmbH, Ferngas Netzgesellschaft mbH and TEN Thüringer Energienetze GmbH & CO. KG signed an agreement in principle with concrete projects for cooperation in the H2 gas network conversion.

The electrolyser in the technical center of the professorship supplies hydrogen again after successful maintenance. The pressure rating of 300 bar was reached.
