Call
Detailed Call Description
The proposals under this topic should:
- Develop innovative production routes using hydrogen as feedstock;
- Evaluate the efficient integration of the new production process into the processing line, including downstream and upstream;
- Design production process coupled/integrated with renewable hydrogen by making the best use of simulation, modelling and IT tools;
- Include energy efficiency, techno-economic and life-cycle assessments considering the efficient use of the hydrogen as well as the value of the by-products, and the value chain from hydrogen production, storage, distribution and usage.
The use of hydrogen as feedstock to produce fuels is out of the scope of this topic. Proposals submitted under this topic should include a business case and exploitation strategy, as outlined in the introduction to this Destination. Societal and environmental impact and implications for the workplace (such as skills, organisational change) should be outlined.
