Do you remember my last post about the hydrogen train? (See: http://gaborpriegl.com/2018/08/26/hydrail-a-killer-application/).

To follow the developments keep your eyes on Schleswig-Holstein, Germany and watch the short report from the Norddeutscher Rundfunk on 01. October 2018. The closing statement is: ”Die Energiewende auf der Schiene wird kommen” (the ”Energiewende” for the railroad will definitely come).

Good for the railroad but what about the car industry?

Well, there is a good news for them too.

Trump backs the oil and coal industries. Is it just paying out the donors or is it a firm policy? Trump has already given up important U.S. positions in the clean-energy sector worldwide. China has already jumped on the opportunities. Is America losing its edge in the clean-tech competition?

Dam. Should we be afraid of it?

The concept is very old. Preparation and design take a lot of time, energy and cost. Construction too. The impact on nature is huge. How does the old design perform in modern times? Does it have a future at all?

Seemed to be a good idea…
