PtX Dialogue: Building a global knowledge and exchange platform for PtX

As part of the International PtX Hub, PtX Dialogue enables emerging economies and developing countries to contribute to the international market ramp-up of sustainable electricity-based raw materials and fuels (“Power-to-X”, including hydrogen). Basic and in-depth training for political decision-makers in partner countries form the basis for developing visions for future PtX production and markets. In demand markets, PtX Dialogue also provides impulses for sustainability standards and develops recommendations for political framework conditions for the sectors aviation, shipping and chemical industry. In addition, the project in Kenya is working on integrating PtX into long-term climate strategies, developing the national market and generating added value locally via international markets. PtX Dialog publishes knowledge products, conducts training courses and workshops worldwide and promotes networks and partnerships, such as Women in Green Hydrogen.

State of implementation/results

The PtX Hub has developed a methodology for analysing Power-to-X potential at country level that focuses on the perspective of stakeholders from politics, business and civil society. The approach has already been piloted in Kenya, Jordan, Vietnam and Algeria and will be rolled out in other countries in mid-2024.
Graduates of the PtX.Basic training programme (ptx-hub.org/…) from over 22 countries now form an active community of practice. This is organised via the online platform atingi (www.atingi.org). Trainers and learners receive inspiration and material on topics such as sustainability, financing and certification and participate via online forums and live calls.
The PtX.Basic training is supplemented by optional additional modules on sustainability, certification, project financing, aviation, shipping, sustainable chemistry, green steel, safety, green ammonia and fertilisers. An e-learning programme for self-learning has also been developed.
A study on the opportunities of e-sustainable aviation fuel was presented to the aviation industry in a webinar with Agora Verkehrswende with more than 200 participants (www.youtube.com/…;t=3s).

The PtX Hub has developed two key knowledge products: a demand and skills assessment study coupled with a strategy to develop capacity for PtX and green hydrogen in Kenya and a mapping and stakeholder assessment of the Kenyan maritime and shipping sector in preparation for the shipping activities that the PtX Hub will undertake by 12/2025.
The PtX Hub supports the management of the national steering committee to accelerate the development and deployment of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in Kenya. It has supported the development of terms of reference for the various thematic priorities, which are being implemented by working groups of the steering committee.

The PtX Hub (PtX Dialogue and PtX Pathways) has set up a publication database (ptx-hub.org/…), which currently contains over 80 knowledge products such as studies and videos.
