Deutsche Forscher haben begonnen, eine schwimmende Plattform in der Nordsee zu testen, die synthetische Brennstoffe mit nur Windenergie, Meerwasser und Umgebungsluft produzieren wird.

Submission Statement

*“We wanted to test the entire planning process including approval, construction, and real-world operation of the plant to learn how to draw up concepts for building larger production platforms,“ said Professor Roland Dittmeyer, Head of KIT’s Institute for Micro Process Engineering and coordinator of the „PtX-Wind“ H2Mare project during the opening ceremony in Bremerhaven.“*

Interesting this isn’t just a technical proof-of-concept, but they are looking at the practicalities of commercializing it too.
