It is now official, the Clean Hydrogen Partnership is launching its first call for proposals – over €300 million will be made available for supporting projects to boost the development of hydrogen and fuel-cell technologies.
The Clean Hydrogen Partnership will provide €300.5 million to support projects that boost renewable hydrogen production, reduce its costs, develop its storage and distribution solutions, and stimulate the use of low carbon hydrogen in hard to abate sectors, such as energy intensive industries, aviation or heavy duty transport. The call will also continue to stimulate the deployment of “hydrogen valleys” across Europe, complex projects that cover the entire hydrogen value chain in a specific region.
A total of 41 topics will be part of the call for proposals, including 10 for renewable hydrogen production, 11 for hydrogen storage and distribution, 8 for transport and 4 for heat and power. In addition, 5 projects will support cross-cutting issues. This call will also support 2 hydrogen valleys and 1 strategic research challenge.
