Decarbonising the EU’s energy system and ramping up our renewable energy use are critical to reach climate objectives. The route to decarbonisation can take many forms, though biogas, biomethane and clean hydrogen are likely to feature in most of the pathways. The smart integration of renewables, energy efficiency and all possible sustainable solutions across sectors will help to achieve a cost-efficient decarbonisation and ensure the reliability and flexibility of the energy systems....

The Horizon 2020 QualyGridS research consortium is hosting the project's final workshop on qualifying test protocols for electrolysers to perform grid services. This virtual event will take place on Monday, June 29, from 13:00 to 15:00 CEST/UTC + 2 . Project's results The project developed new standardised qualifying testing protocols for electrolysers, which demonstrate that state-of-the-art low temperature electrolysers can perform grid balancing services (a.o. FCR, FRR and RR).... Read more
Cooperation, both at the EU and international levels, is an essential element to boost the hydrogen economy worldwide. Projects that can help to unlock the potential of the technology and contribute to smart systems and sector integration have never been more fundamental. EU-funded as well international partnerships have already delivered strong evidence on the benefits of hydrogen solutions and are now interested in discussing how cooperation between sectors and projects can further boost...

The European Green Deal recognised the importance of hydrogen in the clean energy transition and the topic has gained further traction in the discussions on the recovery strategies from the COVID-19 crisis. To boost the development and deployment of this technology and bring together investors, institutional, governmental and industrial partners, the European Commission announced the launch of the Clean Hydrogen Alliance a few months ago. However, how and to what extent the potential of both... Read more
This online session will showcase the ability of hydrogen & associated technologies to decarbonize islands, while generating jobs and growth needed for the economic recovery. Islands are confronted with a number of energy challenges due to their specific geographic and climatic conditions. Islands’ economy is often largely based on tourism and related activities, which not only results in unbalanced seasonal energy demand, but is a sector which has been strongly affected by current...

The Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking and Clean Sky Joint Undertaking are launching a fact-based, independent study on the technological and economic aspects of H2-powered aviation, its feasibility and impact on the climate. The report assesses the potential of hydrogen (H2) propulsion to reduce aviation’s climate impact and points out among others the research, development, and investment needs. The programme 14:00 Opening Bart Biebuyck, Executive Director... Read more
Launched in 2006 by the European Commission, the EUSEW is the biggest event dedicated to renewables and efficient energy use in Europe. It brings together public authorities, private companies, NGOs and consumers to promote initiatives to save energy and move towards cleaner, more secure and more efficient power. Sessions organised by the European Commission and energy stakeholders focus on sustainable energy issues and debate new policy developments as well as other topics comprising the... Read more
On June 18 at 09:30 EDT (15:30 pm CEST), the International Partnership for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells in the Economy (IPHE) will bring industry and government leaders together to identify the challenges, opportunities, policies, and mechanisms to accelerate global-scale deployments of hydrogen across the economy. ​ Confirmed keynote speakers include: Daniel Simmons, Assistant Secretary – U.S. Department of Energy Fatih Birol, Executive Director – International...

Which are the technical and scientific concepts behind the DEMOSOFC site? Which are the achievements? Join the Economics and Market Analysis of the SOFC Technology webinar to discover more about the biogas cleaning unit, the SOFC module performance, the economic of the installation and the needs for integrating an SOFC system within a biogas plant. The web-seminars will include a 15-20 minutes presentation by the DEMOSOFC researchers followed by a Q&A session with the audience.... Read more
Fuel cells are a cost-effective way for households and businesses to generate their own electricity and heat with hydrogen. On- and off-grid units are today commercially available and already more than 10,000 systems have been installed in Europe. The demand for this new technology is increasing as customers are growing more interested. This free webinar is organised for stakeholders from the energy supply chain and explains how fuel cells work and how easy it is to install and integrate them... Read more
