For more than three decades, Winter has researched in the field of Hydrogen. He is convinced that Hydrogen technology is the best possibility for solving energy problems in the future.
Together with 20 of his most esteemed colleagues he wrote a letter to the G8-State leaders, urging them to step forward in their support for Hydrogen. We quote here from this letter:
"The anthropogenic climate change is real. The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change expects a considerable temperature rise by the century’s end. Catastrophic consequences for humans, fauna and flora, and the cultural heritage of humankind are expected, and the oligopolization of traditional fossil or nuclear primary fuel is exacerbated by being possessed by a few - not a comfortable situation for the majority of energy using nations.'Energy policy is technology politics' is exemplified by huge energy efficiency gains, by the cleaning-up of fossil fuels, by safe and non-proliferating secured nuclear energy, and by renewable energies. On top of the progress in all these areas is 'Hydrogen Energy Technologies' for the following reasons:Hydrogen Energy is an environmentally and climatically clean transport fuel,Hydrogen Energy is the storage and transportation agent of so far dormant renewable sources which, thus, will become a powerful contributor to the global energy trade.Hydrogen Energy from renewable energies is the ultimate solution; it is, however, not the precondition for entering the Hydrogen Energy Economy; environmentally compatible hydrogen could also be produced using nuclear energy, and even fossil fuels with carbon capture and storage."Tune in again next week!
