TH2ICINO

TH2ICINO (Towards H2ydrogen Integrated eConomies In Northern Italy) is a project funded by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership as part of Horizon Europe, the EU framework program to support and promote research and innovation in the period 2021-2027. TH2ICINO supports the deployment of micro hydrogen economies for the EU by developing and demonstrating a full ecosystem integrated by 6 replicable use cases linked to the steps of the hydrogen value chain. The results will validate a Master Planning Tool (MPT), which replicability will be then tested. The demonstration of the hydrogen valley will work on the four pillars of the hydrogen value chain: (i) hydrogen production, (ii) hydrogen storage, (iii) hydrogen distribution, and (iv) hydrogen consumption and will send the initial status of TH2ICINO in order to enable replication and expansion. A first stage will include modelling, simulation and scenarization, from electrolysis plant to end-user in order to evaluate different scenarios and optimize them taking into consideration the technological constraints. Once the optimal cases are defined, an implementation phase will bring to real-life the innovative concept of the ecosystem tangible results to feed the MPT. TH2ICINO project consortium is coordinated by Rina Consulting Spa and includes the following participants: - Confindustria Varese (Italy). - SEA Spa (Italy). - Municipality of Busto Arsizio (Italy). - Air Pullman Spa (Italy). - Artelys (France). - Lhyfe Labs (France). - Fundacion Circe Centro De Investigacion De Recursos Y Consumos Energeticos (Spain). - Anonimi Etairia Perivallontikon Kaienergiakon Meleton Kai Anaptixis Logismikou (Greece).
