CURRENT PROJECTS

The Northern Netherlands is the first region to receive a subsidy for their so-called Hydrogen Valley. The Northen Netherlands’ subsidy application for a Hydrogen Valley has been approved by the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH JU) of the European Commission.

Hy2Market is a collaborative project involving 38 partners from 10 European countries, brought together to investigate and develop a more mature hydrogen value chain across Europe on all market levels. The ultimate desire is to make Europe a resource-efficient and competitive green hydrogen economy.

GREEN HYSLAND aims to deploy a fully-functioning Hydrogen (H2) ecosystem in the island of Mallorca, Spain, turning the island into Europe’s first H2 hub in Southern Europe. This will be achieved by producing green hydrogen from solar energy and delivering it to the end users.

SH2AMROCK will be Ireland’s first Hydrogen Valley project. At its centre will be the Galway Hydrogen Hub (GH2), which hopes to transform Galway into a flagship area for Irish sustainable growth.

The HI2 project is a Hydrogen Valley supported by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership and its members, aiming to establish a large-scale renewable hydrogen (H2) economy in the Austrian industrial regions of Upper Austria, Styria and Carinthia.

PAST PROJECTS

TSO2020 is the largest Action approved in the first so-called Synergy call of proposal launched. The project is designed to exploit synergies between power storage solutions and alternative transport infrastructure needs. It will use existing power cable networks to dispatch the electricity flows from the Cobracable PCI to a nearby major gas network facility.

SEAFUEL aims to use renewable resources across the Atlantic Area to power local transport fleets and support the shift towards a low-carbon economy. The project will use the expertise and infrastructure of the partners in renewable energy, namely solar, wind and marine, to demonstrate the viability of hydrogen.

GENCOMM addressed the energy sustainability challenges of NWE communities through the implementation of smart hydrogen-based energy matrixes. The project validates the maturity of hydrogen technologies by implementing 3 pilot plants that link the main northwest European renewable sources with energy storage and the main forms of energetic demand.

ITEG will develop an integrated tidal energy and hydrogen production solution for clean energy generation to be demonstrated in Orkney. The project addresses energy related emissions in North West Europe by tackling grid export limitations faced in remote communities. Using excess tidal turbine power, the project will install an electrolyser and energy management system.

Flightpath 2050 very ambitiously targets 75% CO2 and 90% NOx emissions reductions, relative to year 2000. ENABLEH2 will tackle key challenges i.e. safety, infrastructure development, economic sustainability, community acceptance, and explore key opportunities through improved combustor design and fuel system heat management, to further minimize NOx emissions, improve energy efficiency and reduce the required volumes of LH2.

SOLAR2CHEM, which is run out of the National University of Ireland Galway (NUIG), is dedicated to supporting the required shift to a non-fossil economy by improving the viability of solar-based renewable technology in Europe. It will focus on addressing the intermittency and concentration issues that solar energy faces as well as the production of a range of chemicals relevant to mobility, agriculture and chemical industry.
