Brief synopsis

Germany's ambitious goal is to be climate-neutral by 2045. But how can this be achieved? What is to replace the fossil fuels coal, oil and gas, on which our society is based?
One element has recently been mentioned more and more frequently as the bringer of salvation: Hydrogen. But what is hydrogen anyway, what can it do, and what role will the gas play in the energy transition? Is hydrogen the coal of the future?

In search of answers, MDR Wissen reporter Daniela Schmidt embarks on a journey across Germany. Can hydrogen help prevent carbon dioxide emissions in the three major application areas of mobility, electricity/heat and industry, which together account for 85% of our energy needs? And what is the truth behind the images of the burning Hindenburg airship that still haunt many people's minds?
