The visual centre of Hamburg's trade fair booth is an interactive touch table. This brand new device allows Hamburg to highlight the benefits of the metropolitan region and provide background information on key projects and stakeholders in the city. Insights into hydrogen developments across numerous industry clusters such as aviation, the maritime industry and logistics are given. "This year, we have made the conscious decision to participate in the trade fair's newly created 'Hydrogen Hall' to bring both Hamburg and northern Germany as a whole closer to the international industry - as a pioneering region of green hydrogen," said Dr Rolf Strittmatter, Managing Director of Hamburg Invest, who together with his team is responsible for the trade fair presentation.
Hamburg is already one of Europe's leading hydrogen regions given the entire range of uses starting with production, electrolysis and industrial use, through the development of a network infrastructure and hydrogen imports to the sustainable mobility of ships, aircraft and commercial vehicles. The region also scores points as a key hub of import logistics and because a hydrogen sector of short distances is being established.
