These are the opportunities that strengthen <strong>collaboration within the network<\/strong> and build trust \u2013 a foundation we urgently need to shape the energy transition together. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025-09-17-at-13.27.20-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"From left: Bernd Pitschak, Esther Stahl, Dr. D&#xE9;sir&#xE9;e Schulte, Jens Geier and Dr. Arnt Baer\" class=\"wp-image-2522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025-09-17-at-13.27.20-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025-09-17-at-13.27.20-1-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025-09-17-at-13.27.20-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025-09-17-at-13.27.20-1.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>From left: Bernd Pitschak, Esther Stahl, Dr. D\u00e9sir\u00e9e Schulte, Jens Geier and Dr. Arnt Baer<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Advisory Board meeting of h2-netzwerk-ruhr At the Advisory Board meeting of h2-netzwerk-ruhr on September 17, 2025 at Fraunhofer UMSICHT in Oberhausen, the focus was on a question that could hardly be more topical: \u201cHydrogen ramp-up between ambition and reality \u2013 what is politics doing?\u201d With contributions from Jens Geier (MEP), Dr. Bernd Pitschak (DWV) and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":4171,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[31,32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4170","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-not-in-tile"],"acf":[],"taxonomy_info":{"category":[{"value":31,"label":"News"},{"value":32,"label":"not in tile"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025-09-17-at-13.27.20-1-768x1024.jpeg",768,1024,true],"author_info":{"display_name":"JL","author_link":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/author\/aroskosch\/"},"comment_info":"","category_info":[{"term_id":31,"name":"News","slug":"news","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":31,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":195,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":31,"category_count":195,"category_description":"","cat_name":"News","category_nicename":"news","category_parent":0},{"term_id":32,"name":"not in tile","slug":"not-in-tile","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":32,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":178,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":32,"category_count":178,"category_description":"","cat_name":"not in tile","category_nicename":"not-in-tile","category_parent":0}],"tag_info":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4170","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4170"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4170\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4172,"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4170\/revisions\/4172"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4170"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4170"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/h2-netzwerk-ruhr.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4170"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
