Schott reports successful hydrogen trials

Schott reports successful trials of using 35% hydrogen for industrial-scale glass production, with plans to use 100% hydrogen in future lab-scale tests.

The speciality glass manufacturer wants to avoid using fossil fuels in the long term and has set a goal of becoming climate-neutral in production by 2030.

To achieve this, Schott will focus on two paths: the electrification of the furnaces based on green electricity and the use of green hydrogen.
