Background

With the transition to climate-neutral energy systems, the question arose for Baden-Württemberg as to what role hydrogen would play in the future and what economic opportunities this would present for the region.

Our Approach

  • 1

    Analysis of the entire value chain, including stakeholders, technologies and market and cost trends.

  • 2

    Forecasts of revenue, value-added and employment potential.

  • 3

    Identifying key challenges and areas for action to realise the potential.

Result

A clear picture of the economic potential emerged: with the right positioning, Baden-Württemberg could generate around 9 billion euros in turnover, up to 2.3 billion euros in gross value added and create some 16,500 jobs by 2030 – primarily in the mobility sector. This was accompanied by clear recommendations on how to tap into this potential and safeguard it in the face of international competition.
