AMBARtec is exhibiting at the 1st East German Hydrogen Congress

 

On 26 August 2026, the European Metropolitan Region Central Germany and the HYPOS hydrogen network are inviting participants to the 1st East German Hydrogen Congress in Dresden. Please note that the congress will be held in German.

As part of the accompanying trade exhibition, AMBARtec will present its compact, safe, iron-oxide-based hydrogen storage systems, which are compatible with standard logistics.

Our exhibition focuses on two key topics:

Seamless hydrogen supply with silver recycled hydrogen

For sites without a pipeline connection, AMBARtec offers container-based hydrogen delivery using standard logistics (truck, rail, ship) – 25–50 % cheaper than conventional storage. We also offer cost-effective silver hydrogen. Unused hydrogen from exhaust and residual streams of industrial processes is captured, processed and returned for reuse. This is recognised as ‘low-carbon hydrogen’ under EU Delegated Regulation C(2025) 4674.

Heat supply via hydrogen during the cold, dark doldrums

Our storage systems enable municipal utilities, energy suppliers and the housing industry to provide heat and power on demand, even during periods of low renewable electricity generation. Installed in standardised 20-foot containers, the solution is easy to transport and install, and integrates seamlessly into existing boiler and CHP systems without the need for costly conversions.

We look forward to engaging conversastions in Dresden!

AMBARtec Successfully Advances Digitalisation: New CRM System Strengthens Collaboration and Network Management.

The implementation of the CRM system is laying the foundations for more efficient marketing, sales and project processes. The digitisation aimed to make information centrally available, standardise internal processes, and improve collaboration with customers, partners, suppliers and research and network partners further.
The new system enables all relevant contacts, communication histories and project data to be managed in a central company database. This ensures that up-to-date information is always available, regardless of location.

Key improvements include:

Centralised data management: All relevant contact, communication and project data is consolidated across the organisation.
• Structured network management: Customers, business partners, suppliers, universities, research institutions and associations can be managed and developed in a targeted manner.

Industry-specific segmentation: Contacts can be organised by industry, region and area of application within the hydrogen economy.

Automated communication: Standardised communication processes in German and English support a professional and efficient approach.

Faster follow-up: Fair contacts, project enquiries and new business opportunities can be processed and developed further systematically.

The introduction of the CRM system was co-financed as part of a funding project by the European Union and through funds from the Free State of Saxony, which were approved by the Saxon State Parliament.



Safe, efficient and straightforward: intercontinental hydrogen transport

Rotterdam, 20–21 May, Hall 4 / Stand B110b

Hydrogen is a forward-looking energy source, particularly attractive due to its excellent storage capacity. The challenge: How can it be transported safely and cost-effectively over long distances? For example, from sun-drenched desert regions to energy-intensive economic hubs?

AMBARtec presents the solution: iron nuggets as storage medium. When loaded, the systems contain only iron, so hydrogen cannot escape. This eliminates the need for expensive safety measures or complex infrastructure work in ports, and ships do not need to be retrofitted.

The storage systems can be easily transported using conventional logistics methods, such as by crane, ship, lorry or rail. They are readily available, technically mature and cost-effective.

Rouge H2 Engineering and AMBARtec are collaborating on the EU project H2LOOP

 

At the end of 2025, a meeting of all partners in the European H2Loop project took place at Acciaierie d'Italia in Extraordinary Administration in Taranto. The initiative is co-financed by the European Commission as part of the RFCS-BIG TICKET programme.   

Rouge H2 Engineering AG is a technology provider in the EU project H2LOOP for decarbonising the steel industry. Rouge H2 Engineering AG provides the technology in the form of its patented chemical looping process (CLH), which is used to produce hydrogen from metallurgical gases. The project focuses on developing innovative solutions for the sustainable production of hydrogen from blast furnace gases and the associated contribution to the decarbonisation of the steel sector.  

AMBARtec AG provides technological support. Rouge H2 Engineering is supported by AMBARtec AG, its partner company, whose colleagues have extensive experience with the iron oxide nuggets used in CLH and in scaling up the process.

Three other partners are involved in the four-year project: VDEh-Betriebsforschungsinstitut GmbH (BFI), a German research center with over 50 years of experience in the steel industry; Acciaierie d'Italia in Extraordinary Administration, Italy's largest steel mill, where a corresponding pilot plant is being implemented; and the Polytechnic University of Turin, a leading Italian university in the field of engineering.  

The primary goal of H2Loop is to demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the proprietary chemical looping process (CLH) in generating hydrogen from metallurgical gases. This solution could accelerate the sustainable transformation of the steel industry by reducing CO₂ emissions and enabling the production of hydrogen for industrial use.
