The EU’s 2024 Competitiveness Report clearly outlines the need to: 👉 Close the innovation gap 👉 Achieve efficient decarbonization 👉 Secure supply chains for Europe to remain globally competitive. This resonates deeply with us at Cellfion. Our PFAS-free, cellulose-based membranes are designed to accelerate sustainable energy technologies like hydrogen and flow batteries, directly contributing to Europe's push for clean energy leadership and reducing reliance on imported materials. 🌿⚡ As Europe works towards decarbonization, we see great potential to lead with homegrown, circular solutions that not only cut emissions but also strengthen European supply chains. Now more than ever, Europe must invest in breakthrough technologies to build a greener, more resilient economy. At Cellfion, we’re proud to be part of this journey—turning scientific innovation into scalable, commercial solutions that help Europe lead in the clean energy transition. 🌱 #EnergyTransition #Decarbonization #Innovation #Competitiveness #Sustainability #Cellfion #PFASfree

CLEANHYPRO, a pioneering EU-funded project within the Horizon Europe framework, dedicated to addressing the critical need for efficient and sustainable hydrogen production. With a consortium of 28 partners spanning SMEs – including SpakNano -, large companies, and RTOs (Research and Technology Organisations), CLEANHYPRO is set to make a transformative impact in clean hydrogen production. Discover how SparkNano’s Spatial ALD technology emerges as a game-changer - dramatically decreasing iridium usage by a factor of 40 or more. This breakthrough not only significantly cuts costs but also ensures the sustainable growth of the hydrogen economy by overcoming the constraints of global iridium supply.

🌟 Exciting times for #FactoryXChange as our team engages with stakeholders on multiple fronts! While Lise-Ann Sheahan, our FXC project coordinator, is currently at the HANNOVER MESSE, showcasing the FactoryXChange platform to industry leaders, Karin Jancykova, our Project Manager, recently participated in the @Innovation Fund Cleantech Conference, rubbing shoulders with innovative minds and exchanging insights.   The agenda was packed with insightful conversations, but we gathered the most important highlights for you.   👉 We had the chance to hear from Maroš Šefčovič, Executive Vice-President of the European Commission, discussing the oversubscribed Innovation Fund and its substantial impact on supporting manufacturing projects. 👉 Barbara THIERART-PERRIN, President of Battery Systems at Northvolt, emphasized the critical role of batteries in the transport industry, underlining the urgency for innovation in battery production and circularity efforts championed by the European Battery Alliance. 👉 Henrik Stiesdal, Founder and CTO of Stiesdal, advocated for streamlined processes and EU product demand, stressing circularity in wind blade production. 👉 Vaitea Cowan, representing Enapter, showcased their commitment to green hydrogen production, exemplifying the shift towards flexible renewable energy solutions. The event concluded with a strong call to action for continuous innovation in both products and processes, emphasizing the importance of gender balance and equal opportunities in industry empowerment. 🌍 #Cleantech #Innovation #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #GreenEconomy #Empowerment #Digitalisation #EDIH #manufacturing

🤝 Collaborating in an international project is always exciting. And collaborating with other international projects is even more! As the RELiEF consortium was visiting the #Xplorer2024 Conference in Lappeenranta, Finland, last week, a poster session presented the opportunity to exchange on common practices with other projects. Minttu Laukkanen, from the REINFORCE Project, presented the project's approach on the Battery Value Chain, while RELiEF, represented by EURICE – European Research and Project Office GmbH and TechConcepts B.V. offered an overview of the different exploitation pathways of the project. Here is to the next steps of working together towards #reduction of #rawmaterials waste and #recycling !

This is us, the #SolmateHorizonEurope crew, sharing a joyful snapshot of our kick-off meeting, held yesterday in Brussels, right in the heart of the European institutions quarter. In just one day, we successfully presented each work package, emphasising the upcoming actions and outlining much needed collaborations for the next years we'll be working together, and possibly beyond. The hard work begins now, and we will ensure we provide information about the outcomes of the project.   ℹ And perhaps before getting back to our activities, let's explain what the SOLMATE acronym stands for ➡ "Reuse of SOLar PV Panels and EV Batteries for low-cost decentralised energy solutions and effective Recycling of critical raw MATErials from their end-of-life products".
