F1: Technological-systemic impact of the hydrogen economy

In a first step, sub-project F1 analyzes the technological-systemic impact of the further expansion of renewable energies (RE) (wind and PV) for a green hydrogen economy. In a second step, the raw material requirements for the further expansion of RE are determined. For this purpose, sustainability concepts as well as concepts for the recycling and for applicable processes and plants are developed. In the third step, the direct interaction of wind and PV plants with each other and with the environment is investigated. For this purpose, thermodynamic evaluations of exemplary wind and solar projects are used as an example of a reference energy park in southern Germany, taking local conditions into account. The interaction with the other four sub-projects within Cluster F is essential here.
