The paper developed with our partner Agora Verkehrswende examines the role of synthetic e-SAF in transitioning aviation away from fossil fuels. It provides an overview of the current state of research, and gives insights from technology through policies to concrete market opportunities. The analysis underscores the importance of international cooperation and robust regulatory frameworks to prevent market fragmentation. 

This publication explores carbon sources for PtX production within the framework of the European Union's Delegated Acts of the Renewable Energy Directive (RED II). By analysing the current legislative environment, its consequences, and not-yet-clarified aspects, the paper provides a comprehensive overview of the regulatory considerations and practical implications.

The study researches how to advance Kenya's PtX sector through upskilling staff at universities and vocational training institutions, enhancing professional development, and fostering industry-academia collaboration. It examines the role of internships, tailored training and apprenticeship programmes, and on-the-job training.

This mapping systematically identifies and analyses key stakeholders in Kenya for the defossilisation of the shipping sector. It evaluates their interests and influence within the sector, and examines the relationships among them. The publication also recommends opportunities for collaboration to enhance Kenya’s position as a global hub for green shipping.

The report presents key findings and recommendations for the advancement and financing of green hydrogen and PtX projects in Argentina. Emphasis is placed on investing in research and development (R&D) to promote innovation and competitiveness, and advocating for partnerships with international companies that include technology transfer to benefit local industry.

Our EU Policy expert Antonio Fernandez Rodriguez analysed the priorities for hydrogen and Power-to-X in the EU Commission’s new political guidelines and the key takeaways from the first EU Hydrogen Bank auction.

The PtX Hub is proud to announce its support for the European Hydrogen Week 2024. In four side events, we will provide space to discuss progress on international cooperation with India and Morocco, as well as e-SAF for sustainable aviation.

The PtX Hub, in partnership with DECHEMA, hosted two panel sessions on the potential and challenges of PtX technologies for defossilisation in the chemical sector at this year's ACHEMA. The visit to the world's largest process industry fair was the culmination of a week-long study tour for a delegation from Argentina, Kenya, Morocco and South Africa to visit German research initiatives and companies.
