15.12.2023 | Hydrogen is the fuel of the stars and makes our life possible. Humanity, however, is still in its infancy in harnessing fusion nuclear power as an energy source, so the role of hydrogen on Earth is different - at least for the moment. Traditionally, it already works as a raw material for many industrial processes, for example oil refining. A new, climate-based need is to utilize clean hydrogen in industrial processes that replace fossil-based production.https://tem.fi/en/-/hydrogen-enables-clean-transition-and-requires-large-investments

System integration - a new key theme for energy policy - Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment
Climate neutrality requires that we stop using fossil fuels and increase the use of intermittent renewable energy. Different energy systems should be strongly interlinked to secure the functioning of energy systems and improve their efficiency, with due consideration for the large-scale needs of industrial production. However, we must also beware of the pitfalls on the long path towards sector integration.https://tem.fi/en/-/system-integration-a-new-key-theme-for-energy-policy -
