Hydrogen for a green future.
The development of a green hydrogen market economy as a
component sustainable energy supply is the focus of DWV.
We are the DWV
The German Hydrogen Association (DWV) e.V. has been campaigning for a sustainable hydrogen and fuel cell industry since 1996. The development of a climate-neutral hydrogen market economy as part of a sustainable energy supply is the focus of DWV. With our commitment, we contribute to efficiently achieving the climate goals – while at the same time maintaining the security of supply and Germany as an industrial location.
Hydrogen produced with renewable energies plays a decisive role in this. The association’s activities focus on implementing and optimizing the necessary market, technological and regulatory framework conditions for the hydrogen economy in the areas of plant construction, generation, transport infrastructure and application technologies.
Strong commitment in politics, business and the public
In order to ensure sustainable development under changing environmental conditions, appropriate economic and legal framework conditions are essential.
As a leading interest group, we campaign for safe, economical and emission-free mobility and energy supply.
We formulate justified industry interests in order to secure the business basis of our industry and advocate for fair competition.
Through targeted lobbying, we introduce our positions and arguments into legislative processes and maintain contact with political decision-makers.
We inform the public about the system relevance of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies and applications in a sustainable energy economy through targeted activities in the media and local and international events.
Get involved and help shape the political framework conditions
Under the umbrella of the German Hydrogen Association, various expert commissions contribute to economic concepts for the establishment and implementation of hydrogen technologies in different sectors. The focus of the expert commissions is on proactive cooperation with our members, who are thus offered an excellent opportunity to position themselves within the association, but also vis-à-vis politics and society.
Our expert commissions offer exclusive sector-specific opportunities to actively participate in shaping the legal framework.
DWV currently maintains four expert commissions:
HyMobility
The HyMobility Expert Commission of the German Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association is a cross-sector association of companies and organizations from industry and science. The common goal is to develop forward-looking framework conditions for emission-free and hydrogen-based mobility.
HySteel
We are accelerating the transformation to a climate-neutral steel industry and are tackling the challenges of the German steel sector together. Through our activities within the HySteel cluster, we want to enable the steel industry to make a substantial contribution to achieving the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement and the European Green Deal.
Performing Energy
No energy transition without green hydrogen! The DWV expert commission performing energy is an association of companies and organizations from industry and science that jointly pursue the interest of advancing the development of wind-hydrogen systems. A rethink is necessary in order to achieve the energy policy goals with regard to base load capability from renewable energy and to ensure an economically sustainable energy turnaround.
HyInfrastructure
The expert commission HyInfrastructure of the German Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association is a cross-sectoral association of companies and organizations from industry and science. The members come from the entire hydrogen value chain, such as renewable energy production, hydrogen generation, transmission and distribution grid operators, hydrogen storage facilities, hydrogen users and manufacturers of the required technology and infrastructure. This enables us to take a holistic view and find solutions.
In addition, we contribute our expertise to the following projects:
- PoWerD
- Fuel Cell Hydrogen Observatory (FCHO)
Completed committees and projects:
- H2Global
- H2-SO – Hydrogen Technologies in the Southern Upper Rhine Region
- HyLAW
Further expert committees and projects will follow in the future in order to generate the greatest possible benefit for our members.
For a common goal – climate neutrality!
