H2 Economy: Equipment manufacturing and beyond

Optimize your hydrogen equipment performance and improve operational efficiency with real-time insights and robust security protocols using operational excellence

This Siemens Digital Industries Software document outlines solutions for optimizing hydrogen equipment manufacturing and operations in the emerging green hydrogen economy. The text addresses four key industry trends:

1. Energy Transition: Need for 40% emissions reduction by 2030
2. Digitalization: Rapid adoption of new automation technologies
3. Scalability: Pressure to expand from niche to large-scale production
4. Safety and Compliance: Strict regulatory requirements for hydrogen handling

The document highlights several challenges and solutions:

Key Challenges:

• High production costs (1.5-6x more expensive than fossil fuel-based hydrogen)
• Complex operational requirements
• Data management and security concerns
• Intellectual property protection
• Scale-up difficulties
