PHOENIX

For the successful transformation of the Rhenish lignite mining area into a future-oriented region for sustainable economic activity, regional energy-intensive industries require low-emission and sustainable solutions that are independent of fossil fuel imports. The Launch Space Power-to-X (PHOENIX) focuses on the further development, demonstration and implementation of the most promising approaches to Power-to-X (P2X) technologies. The production of material energy sources such as basic chemicals and platform chemicals, circular power and fuels, as well as heat and gases from biogenic or unavoidable industrial CO2 sources, opens the way to innovative, sustainable and self-sufficient value creation paths. This will secure existing jobs in the Rhineland mining area, create sustainable jobs and, at the same time, reduce dependence on imports of fossil fuels and raw materials.
