H2 Ecosystem Roadmap
Period: 26.7.2021 - 1.12.2023
Content:
Green hydrogen is considered by the EU and other global players as a key
technology in the transition to CO2 neutral societies and industries. For the
Ostrobothnia region, a holistic mapping and update of the H2 knowledge and
activities is needed and close cooperation between a broad base of actors
(universities, large companies, small and medium sized enterprises, development
organizations, municipalities) is to be started. This network will together
create the vision for how the Ostrobothnian actors can build successful
ecosystems around green hydrogen, which in turn contributes to the region's
specialization and innovation activities.
This project aims to build the regional network of actors with an interest in
green hydrogen, create a knowledge base for the role of green hydrogen
technology as part of system level energy solutions, support the development of
new business opportunities related to green hydrogen, and promote the regional
transition to CO2 neutral society
