We lead the way with hydrogen.
The DWV plays a key role as Germany’s national point of contact in effectively shaping the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy.
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 (DWV), various committees contribute to the development of economic concepts for the establishment and implementation of hydrogen technologies across different sectors. These committees focus on proactive cooperation with our members, offering them an excellent opportunity to position themselves both within the association and in relation to politics and society.
Our committees offer exclusive, sector-specific opportunities to actively participate in shaping the legal and regulatory framework.
Currently, the DWV maintains three committees: H2 Production, H2 Infrastructure, and H2 Demand. In addition, there is the expert commission HyMobility, which specifically addresses hydrogen in the mobility sector.
For a common goal – climate neutrality!
