H2 News EXCLUSIVE
H2 On-Air Special
With the “H2 on Air Special,” we’re broadening the perspectives in the hydrogen debate. While Prof. Dr. Michael Sterner enriches our main column with his scientific expertise, this special format gives the floor to various leading figures in the hydrogen industry.
The energy transition requires a variety of approaches and solutions. That is why we regularly bring together a rotating group of experts from academia, industry, and politics to share their insights and experiences. Our goal remains the same: to provide a factual foundation for the H2 discourse.

David Sauss, managing director of the operating company for the Braunschweig Hydrogen Terminal, and Julia Gottsmann, a research associate at SIZ Energie Plus, offer a behind-the-scenes look at one of Germany’s most exciting hydrogen research facilities. In this interview, they discuss whether regulatory approval processes—such as the BImSch procedure—are more of an obstacle to innovation or a necessary quality assurance measure, and why green hydrogen will still rely on government subsidies for at least another ten years.
