To achieve climate goals, industry must fundamentally transform its production processes—through decarbonization using hydrogen, electrification, and the development of a circular economy. This is costly and poses complex challenges for policymakers and the business community: How can we remain competitive, especially in sectors with unavoidable emissions such as copper production? What policy frameworks and support mechanisms are needed?
We support companies, cities, and municipalities in addressing these challenges—technically, regulatorily, and economically. We advocate for predictable policy frameworks, are active at the federal and EU levels, and provide conceptual consulting to companies on the transition of production processes as well as on securing funding.
Hamburg is a pioneer in the energy transition
By repurchasing the energy grids and merging them into the Hamburg Energy Networks, the city can steer the development process itself and leverage synergies. Initial integrated plans are already in place, and Hamburg is also driving innovation in areas such as charging infrastructure. The energy transition is being further advanced by the decommissioning of the coal-fired power plant in Moorburg: With the Hamburg Green Hydrogen Hub, green hydrogen—and thus energy for mobility, heating, process gas, or as a substitute for natural gas—is to be produced from renewable energy sources in the near future.
