Hydrogen Ukraine Strengthens EU-Ukrainian Hydrogen Cooperation with EastGate H2V ProjectIn a major milestone for the development of sustainable energy solutions, Hydrogen Ukraine announces its involvement in the transnational EastGate H2V project, an innovative initiative to foster the production, distribution, and consumption of renewable hydrogen. The official kick-off meeting took place on 10th April in Košice, Slovakia, marking the beginning of this transformative journey for the region’s green energy future.The EastGate H2V project, selected under the Horizon Europe framework by the Clean Hydrogen Joint Undertaking and backed by a €9 million funding, brings together 22 partners from 7 European countries to create a comprehensive hydrogen ecosystem.
The project aims to establish key elements of the hydrogen value chain, including the production of renewable hydrogen, distribution infrastructure, and its use across various sectors, particularly in mobility and industry.Hydrogen Ukraine, along with the Ukrainian Hydrogen Council, is proud to be a vital part of this landmark initiative, contributing to the decarbonization efforts and supporting the reduction of CO2 emissions.Through the H2U Zakarpattia Hydrogen Valley project, Hydrogen Ukraine is laying the groundwork for large-scale hydrogen production in Western Ukraine, positioning the country as a vital player in Europe’s hydrogen economy.
The Zakarpattia region, with its renewable energy resources and strategic location, is set to serve as a key source of clean hydrogen not only for Ukraine itself, but for the EastGate H2V project.Moreover, Hydrogen Ukraine is actively contributing to the Central European Hydrogen Corridor project, which focuses on establishing a hydrogen transport network connecting Ukraine with the wider European Union. By facilitating hydrogen transportation through pipelines and other infrastructure, the Corridor project plays a pivotal role in the successful integration of EastGate H2V with Ukraine’s growing hydrogen supply.
Key highlights of the EastGate H2V project include:Hydrogen production and distribution infrastructure that will power buses, ships, and aircraft.Cross-border collaboration with Ukraine to scale hydrogen production and establish pipeline interconnections.Research and studies to replicate the regional hydrogen ecosystem in other Central and Eastern European regions.
A comprehensive communication and dissemination plan to raise public awareness and ensure visibility of hydrogen’s potential in local communities.As Ukraine continues to strengthen its position within the EU hydrogen market, Hydrogen Ukraine remains committed to playing a key role in accelerating the transition to clean, sustainable energy solutions.READ the latest news shaping the hydrogen market at Hydrogen CentralHydrogen Ukraine Strengthens EU-Ukrainian Hydrogen Cooperation with EastGate H2V Project, sourceThe post Hydrogen Ukraine Strengthens EU-Ukrainian Hydrogen Cooperation with EastGate H2V Project appeared first on Hydrogen Central.
