Großer Hörsaal (GH) | Zentralcampus

In Lusatia, hydrogen is currently being given a relevant role in the decarbonization of the economy and energy supply. But to what extent should Lusatia rely on hydrogen as the "new green coal"? Should hydrogen be used across the board as the "bread and butter" of the energy transition or only in individual areas as the "champagne" of the energy transition?

Hydrogen - the new coal of Lusatia? Or rather the new import oil of the energy region? The energy transition hope "hydrogen" is full of local fairy tales and global import logics. In a panel discussion, the local Lusatian perspectives (Markus Will) and the global justice aspects (Lasse Thiele) of hydrogen will be discussed.

Großer Hörsaal (GH) | Zentralcampus

The energy price crisis in 2022 at the latest made it clear that the future of gas distribution networks is uncertain or even finite. On the other hand, according to the Heat Planning Act that came into force this year, areas in municipalities can be designated as hydrogen network areas. What opportunities and challenges does this present? Lecture by Dr. Stella Oberle
