Kaya ngati malo osungira mphamvu munyengo kapena lonjezo lalikulu la ndege zomwe sizimatulutsa mpweya, haidrojeni yakhala ikuwoneka ngati njira yofunikira kwambiri yaukadaulo kukusalowerera ndale kwa kaboni. Panthawi imodzimodziyo, haidrojeni ndi chinthu chofunika kwambiri pamakampani opanga mankhwala, omwe panopa amagwiritsa ntchito kwambiri haidrojeni ku Germany. Mu 2021, mafakitale aku Germany adadya matani 1.1 miliyoni a haidrojeni, omwe ndi ofanana ndi mphamvu ya ma terawatt 37 komanso pafupifupi magawo awiri mwa atatu a haidrojeni omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito ku Germany.

Malinga ndi kafukufuku wa German Hydrogen Task Force, kufunikira kwa haidrojeni mu makampani opanga mankhwala akhoza kukwera kupitirira 220 TWH isanakhazikitsidwe cholinga cha carbon dioxide chisanafike mu 2045. Gulu lofufuza, lopangidwa ndi akatswiri a Society for Chemical Engineering. ndi Biotechnology (DECHEMA) ndi National Academy of Science and Engineering (acatech), adapatsidwa ntchito yokonza njira yomangira chuma cha haidrojeni kuti mabizinesi, oyang'anira, ndi andale azitha kumvetsetsa tsogolo lachuma cha haidrojeni komanso njira zofunika kupanga imodzi. Ntchitoyi yalandira thandizo la € 4.25 miliyoni kuchokera ku bajeti ya Unduna wa Zamaphunziro ndi Kafukufuku ku Germany ndi Unduna wa Zachuma ndi Zanyengo ku Germany. Limodzi mwa madera omwe ntchitoyi ikukhudzidwa ndi makampani opanga mankhwala (kupatulapo zoyeretsera), zomwe zimatulutsa pafupifupi matani 112 a carbon dioxide ofanana pachaka. Zimenezi zimachititsa pafupifupi 15 peresenti ya zinthu zonse zimene dziko la Germany limatulutsa, ngakhale kuti chigawochi chimagwiritsa ntchito 7 peresenti yokha ya mphamvu zonse zimene zimagwiritsidwa ntchito.

Kusagwirizana komwe kulipo pakati pa kugwiritsa ntchito mphamvu ndi kutulutsa mpweya m'gawo lamankhwala ndichifukwa choti makampani amagwiritsa ntchito mafuta oyambira ngati maziko. Makampani opanga mankhwala samangogwiritsa ntchito malasha, mafuta, ndi gasi ngati magetsi, komanso amaphwanya zinthuzi ngati chakudya chamagulu, makamaka carbon ndi hydrogen, kuti agwirizanenso kupanga mankhwala. Umu ndi momwe makampani amapangira zinthu zofunika monga ammonia ndi methanol, zomwe zimasinthidwanso kukhala mapulasitiki ndi utomoni wochita kupanga, feteleza ndi utoto, zinthu zaukhondo, zotsukira ndi mankhwala. Zonsezi zimakhala ndi mafuta oyaka, ndipo zina zimapangidwa ndi mafuta oyaka moto, ndikuwotcha kapena kuwononga mpweya wowonjezera kutentha womwe umawerengera theka la mpweya wamakampaniwo, ndipo theka lina limachokera kukusintha.

Green hydrogen ndiye chinsinsi chamakampani okhazikika amankhwala

Choncho, ngakhale mphamvu za makampani opanga mankhwala zitachokera kotheratu kuchokera ku magwero osatha, zikanangochepetsako ndi theka la utsi. Makampani opanga mankhwala atha kuchepetsa utsi wake ndi theka posintha kuchokera ku zinthu zakale (imvi) haidrojeni kupita ku haidrojeni wokhazikika (wobiriwira). Mpaka pano, haidrojeni yapangidwa pafupifupi kuchokera ku mafuta oyaka. Germany, yomwe imatenga pafupifupi 5% ya haidrojeni yake kuchokera kuzinthu zongowonjezwdwa, ndi mtsogoleri wapadziko lonse lapansi. Pofika chaka cha 2045/2050, kufunikira kwa haidrojeni ku Germany kudzawonjezeka kuwirikiza kasanu ndi kamodzi kufika pa 220 TWH. Kufuna kwapamwamba kungakhale kokwera mpaka 283 TWH, zofanana ndi nthawi 7.5 zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito panopa.
