| H2CE | Empowering H2-ready regions in Central Europe https://www.interreg-central.eu/projects/h2ce/ | INTERREG Central Europe 2021-2027 | 2023-2026 | Transitioning to green energy is key to tackling climate change and creating sustainable economies. Green hydrogen holds significant promise but accounts for less than 2 percent of Europe’s current energy consumption. The H2CE project helps regions in central Europe to boost the integration of hydrogen in their local and regional energy planning. The project develops and tests new planning tools for public authorities and creates a network of hydrogen-ready regions for good practice exchanges. | hydrogen, energy planning, best practices, toolkit | Joint Spatial Planning Department Berlin-Brandenburg Germany | Pedro Brosei pedro.brosei@gl.berlin-brandenburg.de |
| HyEfRe | Hydrogen integration for efficient renewable energy systems https://www.interreg-central.eu/projects/hyefre/ | INTERREG Central Europe 2021-2027 | 2024-2026 | HyEfRe will counteract challenges related to low integration and balancing of fluctuating renewable energy sources (wind and photovoltaic), suboptimal energy efficiency and lack of carbon-neutrality in CE energy systems, resulting in high energy prices and climate change. The project will lead to the establishment of hydrogen ecosystems in the participating regions, supporting uptake of solutions and strategies, considering all stakeholders. Our consortium consists of research institutes, energy/regional development agencies and SMEs experienced in renewable energy and hydrogen integration, modelling, optimization & IT, legal/economic assessment and stakeholder engagement. HyEfRe will advance the timely energy transition towards carbon-neutrality and result in decentralized new jobs, increasing prosperity and ensuring Europe's leading role in the renewable energy sector. | hydrogen, renewable energy, energy storage, strategy, energy transition | Landshut University of Applied Sciences Germany | Sebastian Arjona sebastian.arjona-bocaz@haw-landshut.de |
| Danube Indeet | Integrated and decentralised concept rethinking energy and transport systems based on renewable energy in the Danube region https://interreg-danube.eu/projects/danube-indeet | Interreg Danube Region Programme 2021-2027 | 2024-2026 | Danube Indeet will facilitate the expansion and implementation of renewable energy in the Danube region. Renewable energy expansion requires extension of the electricity grid, which often cannot be carried out at the same pace. Thus, the fluctuating electricity needs to be stored and utilised outside the electric grid to a certain extent. Danube Indeet tackles these issues by providing an integrated concept considering both the energy and transport systems in the Danube region. A viable way is the intelligent integration of electric vehicles as mobile storage solutions, commonly refered to as "vehicle-to-grid", and electrolysis for green hydrogen production.The integration of both concepts can support the expansion of renewable energy application, produced and consumed locally, which supports energy security and independence, while also reducing GHG emissions in the energy sector. However, the implementation requires extensive analyses and modelling to ensure that the concept is economically viable, legally secure, efficient and sustainable in the long run. | renewable energy, energy storage, hydrogen, transport | Landshut University of Applied Science Germany | Astrid Heindel Astrid.Heindel@haw-landshut.de |
