Brussels, 17 May 2019

The first multi-energy station in Iceland opened today, 15 May 2019, in Reykjavík. The station, built in the framework of the Hydrogen Mobility Europe (H2ME) project, is the third hydrogen station in Iceland, and the first combined station where biomethane, fast charging and hydrogen are all available under the same canopy.

The European innovation project FLAGSHIPS has been awarded 5 Million Euros from the EU to deploy two commercially operated zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell vessels in France and Norway.

Another interesting call funded by the Horizon 2020 is now open where project promoters can seek Technical Assistance for deploying their energy efficiency and sustainable mobility plans around fuel cells and hydrogen (FCH) : Aggregation - Project Development Assistance (EE-11).

Come and join the FCH JU team on 4 May 2019 from 10.00 to 18.00. We will display two of the latest hydrogen-powered cars in front of the European Commission’s Berlaymont building!

Visit us to discover how the hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are contributing to zero emission, clean transport in Europe’s cities and regions!

Our activities will be part of the Research and Innovation family stand.

The FCH JU and the Shift2Rail Joint Undertaking (S2R JU) will launch their joint “Study on the use of fuel cells and hydrogen in the railway environment” on the occasion of a workshop on Friday 17 May 2019 in Brussels. 

Don't miss the deadline! The FCH JU call for proposals 2019 will close at 17:00 CET on 23 April 2019.

€80.8 million are available for developing research and demonstration projects in the field of fuel cells and hydrogen (FCH) technologies. 'Hydrogen Valleys' are a priority, and international collaboration is strongly encouraged in this call. We would like to welcome applications to all of the priority areas in this call.
