The HYDEA
project has launched its first call to support the development and testing of
pre-commercial, hydrogen-based technologies. While there are already proven
solutions requiring only site-specific adaptation, new ideas continue to emerge
from researchers, industry professionals, and entrepreneurs—many of whom lack
the necessary resources.
This call offers access to HYDEA project partners’ experimental facilities and expertise. Proposals will be evaluated by an independent panel of experts based on scientific merit, technological feasibility, and market potential. Priority will be given to solutions with potential integration into port environments.
