At this year’s HUSUM Wind, taking place from 14^th – 17^th September 2021, there will be a special focus on wind hydrogen – a current and important trend in the wind economy and industry.

A dynamically growing hydrogen economy is developing across Europe and the UK; wind energy and especially offshore wind, is the central driver for this. The offshore sector in Germany and across Europe have recognised the potential of the production of climate friendly hydrogen and green fuels.

For this reason, a separate exhibition area of about 1,000m² in hall 1 is dedicated to the topic of offshore and green hydrogen. Here, domestic and foreign exhibitors from European core markets will present innovative technologies and products for the booming market. Marketing of the OFFSHORE WIND & GREEN HYDROGEN special area started in March, and 400m² has already been booked. At the heart of the special area, the newly created WIND INDUSTRY & GREEN HYDROGEN FORUM offers a platform for thematic contributions, intersectoral exchange and networking.

Matthias Zelinger, managing director of VDMA Power Systems and head of the competence centre climate and energy at VDMA, comments: “Climate neutral industry needs wind energy. While today it is highly interesting for forerunners to conclude direct contracts for the supply of climate neutral electricity, in perspective it must be a location factor to provide it in sufficient quantities.”
