Hydrogen – the drive of the future?

Researchers at Kempten University of Applied Sciences have been commissioned by DACHSER to take a closer look at hydrogen as a CO2-neutral energy carrier in a study.

Hydrogen is seen as a hopeful candidate for the decarbonization of road transport. That's why DACHSER commissioned the Kempten University of Applied Sciences to conduct the "H2 Infrastructure and Logistics" study. The aim was to investigate the publicly available availability of hydrogen as well as the currently known production processes and refueling options for use in fuel cell-electric trucks in the period 2025 to 2030 for the European DACHSER Road Logistics network. The study shows: A number of challenges remain to be overcome in the search for a clean and sustainable fuel.

"Foresight and perseverance are required"

Digital innovations are research-intensive and often require a great deal of time and money to implement. For them to ultimately succeed in practice, they must offer concrete added value - especially for the people who work with them. DACHSER CEO Burkhard Eling on digital innovations at DACHSER and having a long breath that is now paying off.
