CEP and DWV: Strong alliance for hydrogen mobility

Members of the CEP and DWV

The Clean Energy Partnership (CEP) and the German Hydrogen Association (DWV) are intensifying their strategic cooperation to promote hydrogen mobility in Germany and Europe. This cooperation combines the technical expertise of the CEP with the political clout of the DWV to enable innovations in the field of hydrogen.

As the central platform for the technical design of hydrogen mobility in Europe, the CEP focuses on technical rules, regulation, standardization and certificates. The DWV acts as a political federal association for hydrogen and takes action precisely where technical expertise needs to be translated into practicable laws and regulations.

In the clearly structured cooperation, the CEP contributes well-founded professional principles from workshops and technical working groups. DWV translates these into political positions and brings them into the discourse with ministries, parliamentarians and the public.

The cooperation includes the development of joint narratives, the coordination of political recommendations and the strengthening of the perception of hydrogen issues as a contribution to decarbonization.

Together, CEP and DWV are pooling their expertise, experience and a broad network of stakeholders to effectively shape hydrogen mobility. This partnership promises to effectively tackle the technical and political challenges of hydrogen mobility and pave the way for a sustainable transport transition.

Current contributions

Berlin, 18 May 2026 | The Clean Energy Partnership (CEP) has taken another important step towards scaling up hydrogen mobility in Europe: TÜV Thüringen Schweiz has become the latest independent testing body to be authorised to carry out inspections of hydrogen refuelling stations in accordance with EN 17127 and ISO 19880-1.
Berlin, 10 February 2026 | The Clean Energy Partnership (CEP), an expert committee for hydrogen mobility, welcomes two new members: Poppe + Potthoff and Tyczka Hydrogen. As an independent, technology-neutral organisation, the CEP brings together players from all areas of hydrogen mobility in road, rail and factory transport. After a six-month trial period, both companies are now contributing their specific expertise to the CEP's working groups as full members.
