Supra-regional storage and transport infrastructures for green hydrogen are needed to ensure efficient temporal and spatial distribution.</p><p>This is where TransHyDE comes in as one of three hydrogen flagship projects funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).

The perspectives of the featured articles and reviews are remarkably diverse and span the full range from higher level topics like transitioning paths towards climate neutral gas grids to providing answers to specific, in-depth technological questions that need to be solved to make the models become reality. The technology-open approach of TransHyDE is clearly visible in this special issue as it is not limited to one specific hydrogen transport option or infrastructural component, where for example hydrogen storage with LOHC technology, as well as underground storage in sandstone formations and the direct usage of ammonia in combustion engines are examined next to one another. Studies on public acceptance and societal risk perception add to the technological perspectives and allow putting them into action.</p><p>With this broad range of topics, the TransHyDE special issue invites readers to take a holistic approach to future transport and storage infrastructure of hydrogen and its derivates in Germany.

According to this law, a permit for the continued operation of LNG facilities after 31 December 2043 can only be granted if the facilities are operated with climate-neutral hydrogen and its derivatives. In this context, the research and development requirements for the conversion of LNG terminals to hydrogen and its derivatives were formulated. These requirements will be investigated in the new TransHyDE project LNG2HyDE which started on 1 June 2023. Central questions of the project are: What are the technological, regulatory and normative challenges for the conversion of LNG terminals to green hydrogen from renewable energy sources and its derivatives? What are the research and development needs? To what extent can and should the conversion of LNG terminals to hydrogen and its derivatives take place gradually? Is mixed operation feasible? What time and capacity requirements can be estimated for the conversion of terminals from LNG to hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives in the light of the global hydrogen value chains that are being set up?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The aim of the project is to develop, within 18 months, a scientifically sound, sustainable data base and recommendations as a basis for decision-making on the viable and long-term use of LNG terminal sites as logistical hubs for hydrogen and its derivatives. In order to achieve this goal, a technology-open investigation is to be carried out, so that in addition to liquid hydrogen and ammonia, the hydrogen carriers and hydrogen derivatives methanol, liquid organic hydrogen carriers, synthetic natural gas (SNG) and dimethyl ether are to be investigated. All of these promising candidates will be investigated in parallel.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The new TransHyDE project will define H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; transport vectors in the context of LNG terminals and provide a technological inventory of terminals for the import of SNG, LNG, LH&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, NH&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;, LOHC, MeOH and DME with the aim of identifying the main infrastructure components. Another important part of the project is the development of concepts for the further development and use of LNG terminals for other H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; transport vectors. The terminal concepts include all process steps and infrastructures from ship docking, storage and conversion to the injection of the liquefied gas into the H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; backbone network as well as filling facilities for domestic road, rail and ship transport. The starting point is the LNG terminal infrastructures currently being planned and built. In particular, it will be examined how existing facilities, infrastructure and components of the LNG terminals can be further used and which process steps and facilities will have to be replaced or newly constructed for the alternative utilization paths.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The project will also include an analysis of the materials used in the terminal components regarding their compatibility wit","PeriodicalId":11573,"journal":{"name":"Energy technology","volume":"13 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ente.202300969","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143248493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cell interconnection is typically achieved using techniques involving laser scribing and/or precise alignment during fabrication.

Laser scribing provides high-resolution lines (≈100–200 μm wide), necessitating equally precise or finer techniques for interconnections. Aerosol jet printing emerges as a promising solution, offering resolutions as fine as 10 μm and enabling high-speed processing. This study demonstrates the fabrication of semi-transparent monolithic perovskite modules using a combination of laser scribing and aerosol jet printing. Five interconnected cells are successfully produced, with the laser scribing process requiring ≈2 min and aerosol jet printing interconnections completed in about 7 min.

Single-crystal materials exhibit elevated piezoelectric coefficients and stability; however, they tend to be costly and fragile. Composite materials integrate piezoelectric ceramics with polymer matrices, enhancing flexibility and lowering costs. Polymeric materials exhibit lightweight, flexible, and biocompatibility characteristics, rendering them ideal for wearable and implantable applications.
