Details

Hydrogen is a cross-cutting technology with applications in numerous sectors having specific needs in terms of research, innovation and market development and deployment. The Clean Hydrogen Partnership is at the core of R&I activities related to hydrogen production, distribution and end-uses for energy, transport, and industry. The integration, deployment and scale-up of H2 technologies in all related sectors will require additional, complementary and coordinated R&I efforts which is carried out in synergy with the end-use Partnerships covering hydrogen in their Programme and other European strategic initiatives at Union, National, and Regional level. By strengthening synergies with other Horizon Europe initiatives, Partnerships and other JUs, the Clean Hydrogen JU and other Partnerships have better chances to deliver on the ambitious 2030 targets and contribute to EU priorities and policies. The European Commission in the meantime has an important role to play in enhancing synergies, collaboration and bridging the gaps between different partnerships. In this special session, the speakers will illustrate their strategy to exploit the synergies, both in terms of technical activities then in terms of funding strategy. For example, actions such as: common roadmaps (reflected in the SRIAs) and MoU’s signed between Partnerships can be developed (see MoU between Clean Hydrogen Partnership and CAJU), foresee collaboration between projects of different funding schemes, synchronise the calls for proposal to have actions at specific timings, creating links with national or European R&I activities, coordinated deployment of hydrogen vehicles and refuelling infrastructure between programmes, scale-up or staged proposals expansion and so on.
