New publication in Energy Research and Social Science

Hydrogen is still a niche technology in Germany. Until now, the relatively young public debate on hydrogen policy has also hardly been polarised and conflict-ridden. Michèle Knodt from the Institute of Political Science at TU Darmstadt and colleagues from Masaryk University in Brno (Czech Republic) used a discourse network analysis to investigate how the composition of the actors, their positions and the general discourse structure in Germany have developed. The results were published in the journal Energy Research and Social Science.

Am 29.11.2022 erschien in der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung ein Artikel über Clean Circles von Sascha Zoske mit dem Titel „Heißes Eisen für das Klima“.
