Von optimistischen Modellen zu leeren Pipelines: Die intellektuelle Geschichte von Deutschlands Wasserstoff-Backbone*

Von optimistischen Modellen zu leeren Pipelines: Die intellektuelle Geschichte von Deutschlands Wasserstoff-Backbone*
11 min read

Deutschlands Wasserstoff-Backbone existiert heute als Stahl im Boden und als unter Druck stehende Pipeline. Doch die wichtigere Infrastruktur wurde lange vor dem ersten ausgehobenen Graben geschaffen. Diese Infrastruktur war intellektuell. Eine lange Abfolge von Studien, Modellen und politiknahen Analysen erzeugte den Eindruck, dass Wasserstoff für großskalige Energienutzung nicht nur plausibel, … [continued]

Winter Storms Wreak Havoc — Blame Fossil Fuels, Not Renewables

Winter Storms Wreak Havoc — Blame Fossil Fuels, Not Renewables
8 min read

Weather is big news these days, and winter storms make for great clickbait. (Okay, I’ll admit that I’m a bit culpable here.) The US Eastern seaboard is in the midst of a rolling series of winter storms — wind, ice, sleet, and snow have caused upheavals in communities. Sure, the … [continued]

IBM Advances Quantum Computing with Nighthawk for Clean Energy Transformations
6 min read

I visited IBM’s headquarters in Yorktown last December, arriving just after a snowstorm had rolled through the Hudson Valley. The timing was fitting. Quantum computing, like winter weather, is something people talk about constantly but many don’t experience directly. At IBM’s Quantum Technology labs, you can at least hear the … [continued]
