In the Harthäuser Wald wind farm, electricity is generated from wind power. Part of this electricity is routed via a direct connection to the DLR (German Aerospace Center) site in Lampoldshausen and used for producing green H2 via electrolysis. The hydrogen is compressed to 350 bar and stored, then filled in a mobile storage system and transported to be used in mobility applications (private FC cars, local public transport). Part of the H2 is purchased by DLR and used in research applications for rocket engines. H2 is also used, mixed with natural gas, in two cogeneration plants.
