“I am convinced that the use of renewable energy as hydrogen will be an important answer to still-open questions of the energy transition,” said Parliamentary Secretary of State Thomas Bareiß. Germany's Tennet, Gasunie Deutschland and Thyssengas have agreed to build Element One, a 100 MW power-to-gas pilot plant in the northwest of the country. The project is being developed by German energy company RWE npower with support from the European Investment Bank (EIB) and will be built on land owned by RWE. It will also be used to examine synergies between the energy, transport and industry sectors. Element One will be gradually connected to the grid from 2022, while Tennet's Diele and Conneforde substations are also being considered for the site.
