H2Global – Idea, Instrument and Intentions
The purpose of the Foundation is to promote the protection of the environment and the climate as well as the promotion of science and research. The purposes will be achieved by measures that serve to promote the production and use of Green Hydrogen and other climate-neutral energy carriers (climate-neutral or defossilised energy carriers) at national and international level. An important part of the foundation's work is to conduct and encourage research in this field. Focus is on research that contributes to rapid decarbonisation of the economy.
The H2Global foundation is conducting the following research-projects:
H2Global Knowledge Hub
Heading
H2Global Meets Africa
Heading
Green hydrogen and Power-to-X
H2Global Knowledge Hub
Duration: 06.2023 - 06.2026
The H2Global Knowledge Hub extends and supports the ongoing work of the H2Global Foundation by establishing a knowledge and dialogue platform for the market ramp-up of sustainable hydrogen and its derivatives. Various workshops will be held with stakeholders from business, science, politics, and society on topics such as market environment, supply, logistics and value chains, scaling, infrastructure, standardisation and certification, production, and trade-offs.

H2Global meets Africa
Duration: 05.2023 - 12.2025
The research project is dedicated to the question of how sustainable hydrogen partnerships between Africa and Europe can be established in cooperation. The project will look at integrated value chains, local value creation, export opportunities and the use of the H2Global instrument adapted to the needs of the partner countries.

Opportunities and Risks of the International Market Ramp-Up for Developing and Emerging Countries in Cooperation with the Private Sector
Duration: 09.2021 - 05.2023
The project aims to identify the determinants of an equal participation of developing and emerging countries in the international market ramp-up of green hydrogen and PtX products. It focuses on the legal, economic and technical analysis of the newly emerging supply and demand markets, the market position and investment conditions. Concrete recommendations for action for the promotion of cooperation with the private sector are also identified.
