CIC energiGUNE is actively participating in the innovative H2PLAN project, an initiative that is part of the Complementary Energy and Renewable Hydrogen Plans of the Ministry of Science and Innovation, funded through the Recovery and Resilience Mechanism (RRM). This project has its roots in the Elkartek project of the 2021 Program, known as H2BASQUE, whose objective is to develop advanced technologies to promote the hydrogen economy in the Basque Country through the production of green hydrogen.

 

The H2PLAN project focuses on the development of key components for green hydrogen generation through innovative technologies, including AEM (Anion Exchange Membrane) electrolysis, PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) electrolysis and hydrogen generation through thermochemical cycles. These technologies promise to transform the way hydrogen is produced, making it more efficient and sustainable.

CIC energiGUNE is dedicated to conducting comprehensive studies on the scalability of thermochemical hydrogen production. Using advanced computational simulation methods, the center is guiding the construction of a prototype thermochemical reactor. This prototype will allow evaluation and testing of the materials on a larger scale, as well as validation and refinement of the models developed. These studies are crucial to move towards more efficient and economically viable green hydrogen production.

 

The H2PLAN project not only seeks to develop innovative technologies, but also to position the Basque Country as a leader in the hydrogen economy. The advances achieved in this project have the potential to contribute significantly to global efforts to mitigate climate change and promote the use of renewable energies.

CIC energiGUNE´s commitment to the research and development of green hydrogen technologies reinforces its position as a reference center in energy storage and conversion. Through projects such as H2PLAN, the center continues to drive innovation and sustainable development, contributing to a cleaner and more efficient energy future.
