Regions and cities initiative organising workshops throughout Europe
In 2016 the FCH JU launched its initiative with regions and cities. Its goal is to establish a collaboration platform to facilitate market introduction of fuel cell and hydrogen (FCH) based products in regions and cities pursuing a decarbonisation agenda. To date, the initiative counts 86 signing parties, who adhered in the form of signing a Memorandum of Understanding.
The initiative, conducted in a form of a study, has compiled relevant information for public authorities and other interested stakeholders under several technology dossiers. These are divided by applications from cars through buses, delivery vans, ships, gen- sets to hydrogen into gas grid. The technology dossiers are available here.
Through February and March 2018, a series of local workshops is organised in several European cities. The workshops aim to promote knowledge exchange on best practices in FCH project development and to discuss the way forward for European cities and regions to implement FCH projects. The regional workshops address members of the Regions and Cities Initiative; however, any additional interested stakeholders are also welcome to attend.
