The talk presents a practical case study on how hydropower and photovoltaics can be strategically combined in water treatment plants and expanded through electrolysis. It focuses on real energy and mass flow analysis, a phased implementation roadmap, and the economic evaluation of hydrogen production.

It demonstrates how surplus renewable energy can be efficiently utilized to reduce operating costs and the carbon footprint, while unlocking new value streams through hydrogen and oxygen. In addition, concepts for increased autonomy and a hydrogen-based emergency system for crisis situations are presented.
