PtX Lab Facts I 9/2026 I Topic: PtX Lab Lausitz I 2 Pages
The PtX Lab Facts PtX Lab Lausitz (currently available in German only) provides a concise overview of why Power-to-X (PtX) is indispensable for the energy transition – particularly for sectors such as the chemical industry and air and maritime transport, which cannot be fully electrified. It explains how renewable electricity is used to produce green hydrogen, which in turn is used to create sustainable fuels and feedstocks such as e-ammonia, e-jet fuel and e-methanol.
The focus is on PtX Lab Lausitz itself: a ‘Think-and-Do-Tank’ fulfilling three roles – knowledge platform (THINK), catalyst (DO) and centre of excellence (TANK) – on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs. The factsheet illustrates how the work of the Lausitz Lab has evolved from technological feasibility to systemic issues relating to market ramp-up, and presents the four sections as well as the cross-cutting themes of sustainability standards and resource requirements.
Furthermore, the publication provides information on the current status of the planned PtL demonstration plant in Lusatia and describes how the PtX Lab Lausitz is playing a central role in regional and supra-regional structural change – from hydrogen networks and expert roundtables to working groups at federal level.
Anyone looking for a quick, well-informed introduction to the work of the PtX Lab Lausitz will find in the factsheet a concise overview of the Think-and-Do-Tank’s remit, sections and current projects.
