Power-to-X, also known as Power-2-X (P2X), is the process of turning electricity (power) into sustainable green products (the “X”). The input of this process is renewable power from solar panels, wind turbines, hydropower, etc., and the output is a variety of clean fuels (e-fuels) or chemicals. The “X”, the energy carriers, are hydrogen, fuel gases and liquid fuels such as gasoline, ammonia, kerosene and diesel, for example. Sector coupling, i.e. the interconnection of the individual energy industries and their joint use and production of energy sources, is in the foreground here.
