TRIĒRĒS Wins Hydrogen Valley of the Year Award 2024

The TRIĒRĒS project has been honored with the prestigious Hydrogen Valley of the Year 2024 award. This recognition, bestowed by the European Commission, underscores the project’s significant contribution to the advancement of hydrogen technology and its potential to reshape the energy landscape.

A Visionary Project, A Brighter Future

TRIĒRĒS, a pioneering initiative, is setting the stage for a hydrogen-powered future in Greece. By successfully deploying a «virtual pipeline» using hydrogen gas tube trailers, the project has demonstrated the feasibility of efficient hydrogen transport and storage.

Key Milestones:

  • Pioneering hydrogen mobility: The project has showcased the capabilities of hydrogen-powered buses, refueling them using tube trailers during the 3rd JIVE Roadshow across Greece and the Balkans.
  • Knowledge sharing and international collaboration: By partnering with Austria’s WIVA P&G HyWest hydrogen valley, TRIĒRĒS has fostered valuable knowledge exchange and strengthened international cooperation.

What lies ahead for TRIĒRĒS?

The project is poised to achieve even greater milestones:

  • The launch of Greece’s first commercial hydrogen refueling station in Agioi Theodoroi, Corinthia, is imminent.
  • The adoption of hydrogen-powered vehicles by the Municipality of Loutraki-Perachora-Agioi Theodoroi is on the horizon.
  • The initiation of tendering processes for hydrogen-powered urban buses and light vehicles to be integrated into regional transport networks.

The future of hydrogen is here. TRIĒRĒS is leading the way, proving that a cleaner, more sustainable energy future is within reach.

Green Hysland Assembly: Co-creating the first green hydrogen hub in Southwest Europe

The General Assembly of the Green Hysland project, coordinated by Enagás Renovable, was a milestone on the road to a more sustainable energy future. This meeting, which brought together experts from all over Europe, served to share advances and strengthen collaboration around green hydrogen.

Green Hysland is positioning Mallorca as the first green hydrogen hub in southwest Europe, demonstrating that this innovative technology is a reality and that it can transform our energy system.

Green Hysland covers the entire green hydrogen value chain, from production to distribution and end use.

To conclude, Green Hysland is more than a project, it is a vision of the future. A vision in which Mallorca becomes a world reference in the production and use of green hydrogen.
