CARSTEN KRAUSE - HYDROGEN ENTHUSIAST & EXPERT

Throughout my career, I’ve built and led organizations that push the boundaries of what’s possible in hydrogen technology. From expanding startups into industry leaders to spearheading multimillion-euro infrastructure projects, I thrive in fast-moving environments where innovation and execution go hand in hand.

 

My expertise spans business development, market expansion, and technology commercialization, all with a singular goal: advancing the hydrogen economy at scale.

 

My work is based on trust, openness, strategic thinking and a deep understanding of technology, markets and people.

  

My way of thinking

 

My work has always been about more than just strategy — it’s about impact. Whether securing funding for breakthrough initiatives, forging high-value partnerships, or leading teams through complex challenges, my focus is on driving real, measurable change in the energy sector.

 

Let's return to Jeremy Refkin, who wrote 2002: "The global communications network, and soon the global hydrogen energy network, will, in principle, connect every human being with every other human being." The German radio station "Deutschlandfunk" commented at the time: "Doubts are justified: So far, over 80 percent of the world's population has no internet access. With hydrogen technology remaining unaffordable, this will be no different.”

 

Today, at least 70 percent of the world's population has internet access. I believe: We don't know what the future holds, but we can do everything we can to shape it – best if we do it together!
