Congratulations on your victory in the 2025 federal election, Friedrich Merz and the CDU/CSU parliamentary group . The welcome high voter turnout is an expression of a vibrant democracy, and it gives the new Bundestag a high level of representation. Mr. Merz, you were tasked by the voters with the rapid formation of a decisive and focused government. A large number of issues need to be tackled that have previously been left undone and which have rightly concerned the people of Germany. It is no less important to consistently push forward those issues that the previous government successfully initiated. This includes a high level of determination to implement the energy transition. Especially in times of global instability and shifting power relations, it is important to ensure a resilient and affordable energy supply. Hydrogen as an energy source, fuel and storage medium plays a key role in this. Germany is now a global pioneer in green hydrogen projects and the expansion of the necessary infrastructure such as the hydrogen core network, which will include more than 9,000 km of pipelines. This pioneering position must be consistently expanded - in close cooperation and in line with the ambitious goals of Ursula von der Leyen and the EU. As one of the market leaders for electrolyzers in Germany, we are ready to make our contribution and continue to invest in Germany.
