Project description
A hydrogen valley in Northern Italy
Hydrogen fuel cells have the potential to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The EU-funded TH2ICINO project is dedicated to enabling the development of micro hydrogen economies throughout the EU. This will be accomplished by creating and demonstrating a comprehensive ecosystem comprising six replicable use cases, each corresponding to a stage in the hydrogen value chain. The project’s outcomes will involve the validation and testing of a Master Planning Tool (MPT). The project’s primary focus is to establish a hydrogen valley in northern Italy, concentrating on four key areas of the hydrogen value chain: hydrogen production, storage, distribution and consumption. In its initial status report, TH2ICINO will provide valuable insights to support future replication and expansion of the project.
Objective
TH2ICINO (Towards H2ydrogen Integrated eConomies In NOrthern Italy) 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.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
