Brandenburg’s Push for a 1000-Kilometer Hydrogen Pipeline Network by 2045

Brandenburg’s Minister of Economics, Jörg Steinbach, is pushing for the quick construction of a 1000-kilometer hydrogen pipeline network in order to become a leading European country in climate-neutral production. The network will cost 1.2 billion euros and start with 687 kilometers in 2030, reaching 1102 kilometers by 2045. It will be used to supply large industrial sites with hydrogen and heat power plants with the climate-friendly energy carrier. The project must be completed by 2028 according to EU guidelines and will involve reusing existing gas pipelines (603 km) as well as constructing new ones (499 km). Solar and wind parks are also expected to produce hydrogen. The study estimates that the demand for hydrogen in Brandenburg will increase from 5 Terawattstunden in 2030 to 40 Terawattstunden in 2045.

In summary, Brandenburg is planning to build a 1000-kilometer hydrogen pipeline network by 2045 that will supply industrial sites and heat power plants with climate-friendly energy carriers. This project is estimated to cost 1.2 billion euros and must be completed by 2028 according to EU guidelines. Solar and wind parks are also expected to produce hydrogen, which is estimated to have a demand of 40 Terawattstunden in Brandenburg by 2045.

Hydrogen is the Most Abundant Element

Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, representing nearly 75% of all baryonic matter. It is an odorless, colorless gas that can be found in stars, planets, and interstellar clouds. Hydrogen is also a key component of water and organic compounds. It is an essential ingredient for life on Earth, as it helps to create amino acids and proteins. Hydrogen has many uses in industry and technology, such as being used to produce electricity through fuel cells or powering rockets.
