KRUH2 - The initial spark in the northwest

The energy transition is progressing and hydrogen plays a central role in this. With the KRUH2 project in the north- western Krummhörn region, we are setting an important milestone in sustainable energy supply. The aim is to advance hydrogen technology and gather practical experience. The ceremonial commissioning of the KRUH2 project took place on 25 July 2024. 

This issue of OGE Policy Impulse explains how the KRUH2 project works and what role it plays for OGE and for the German energy transition.

Turning old into new: making natural gas pipelines fit for hydrogen

We all do it: we renovate houses, repair cars or use old jars to make grandma's jam. Refurbishing old things makes sense. It doesn't always have to be something new. It's good for the environment and for your wallet. We will do the same with the hydrogen network. We want to continue using the old natural gas pipelines and transport hydrogen in them.

A H₂erculean task

The aim is clear: after a year in which our energy supply has been turned upside down, the course must now be set for the future. A future with safe and clean energy sources. OGE and the other partners of the initiative will make a decisive contribution to this with H₂ercules.
