Hydrogen derivatives and other molecules

Hydrogen derivatives, such as ammonia, methanol, and synthetic fuels, are chemical compounds produced from hydrogen and other elements that can serve as energy carriers, feedstocks, or fuels and can be transported and stored more easily or used in existing infrastructure.[1] The reformed Nationaler Wasserstoffrat’s mandate will explicitly include these molecules, reflecting their importance for importing energy, decarbonizing shipping and aviation, and integrating hydrogen into global commodity markets.[1]
