European Hydrogen Week

Is the #hydrogen sector expecting more #realism? Technological breakthrough and strong political commiment haven contributed to hydrogen very quickly becoming a ‘Peak of Inflated Expectations’, capable of transforming the economy. However, the price of green hydrogen is still high, and Europe will rely on hydrogen imported from abroad by 2030. To speed up the ramp-up of green hydrogen, the European Union is facing demands from market players to leverage support for infrastructure and electrolysis technology, remove barriers to global hydrogen trade, standardise hydrogen products and create a uniform and efficient regulatory framework.

As part of our ongoing research on #hydrogen, Master's thesis student and Research Assistant Lukas Scherrer recently attended the European Hydrogen Week in Brussels.        As part of his project “Classifying Hydrogen Applications with Mass-Participation of Experts: Evaluating the hydrogen application potential in a multi-criteria decision analysis framework,” Lukas engaged in interesting conversations with industry leaders and research partners.       Different countries have very different economic and technological characteristics, so hydrogen can play a similarly different role in each of them. The aim of this project is to develop a classification of hydrogen applications that also integrates these regional criteria. Expert input is one aspect that will be included in the study, which will be published later this year.       For the study, we welcome input from people who are working on hydrogen across all domains. If you are interested in contributing to the study in the form of a survey, please contact Lukas Scherrer. Participants will be notified when the results are shared.      Thanks to the European Hydrogen Week organizers for this outstanding event.      Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering (D-MAVT), ETH Zurich  ETH Zürich  River HUANG  Russell McKenna   #MCDA  

It's the first corridor in Europe: a major pipeline to connect Portugal, Spain, and France, with an extension to 🇩🇪 Germany. This €2.5 billion project will be ready in 2030, carrying 2 million tons of H2 per year. 💧⚡ More details with Giacomo Matarazzo from Teréga (one of the partners), whom we met during the European Hydrogen Week in Brussels. 🌍💡 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- C'est le premier grand corridor en Europe : une liaison sur plusieurs centaines de km pour relier le Portugal et l'Espagne à la France, avec une extension vers l'Allemagne. Ce projet à 2,5 milliards d'euros devrait aboutir vers 2030 et sera en mesure de transporter 2 millions de tonnes d'hydrogène par an. Il nous est présenté par Giacomo Matarrazo de Terega, que nous avions rencontré à la semaine européenne de l'hydrogène à Bruxelles.
