Research Programme
HyDelta 3.0
11/2023 - 10/2024
HyDelta 3.0 is the followup programme of HyDelta 2.0 directed towards taking away barriers in upscaling hydrogen. The main focus of HyDelta 3.0 can be summarized as follows:
- Asset management - on hydrogen gas quality and the reuse of offshore infrastructure
- Economy and society - on the rollout of (temporary) self-sufficient hydrogen regions, to relieve grid congestion, for example, and how revenues and risks can be shared
- Emissions - on the greenhouse effects of hydrogen and the role of ammonia
- Preconditions - on unit standardisation, digitalisation, the hydrogen infrastructure manufacturing industry and spatial layout
-
Technology and safety - on recommendations for safe handling of hydrogen in the energy network
HyDelta 2.0
05/2022 - 04/2023
HyDelta 2.0 is the followup programme of HyDelta 1.0 directed towards taking away barriers in upscaling hydrogen. The main focus of HyDelta 2.0 can be summarized as follows:
- Economic aspects of the hydrogen system
- Hydrogen safety in the gas grid
- Hydrogen and transport assetss
- Social & environmental aspects of hydrogen
The project has a total result of 26 publications including the research results.
HyDelta 1.0
12/2020 - 04/2022
HyDelta 1.0 has been the start of this overarching research programme towards a hydrogen economy in the Netherlands. The main focus of HyDelta 1.0 can be summarized as follows:
- Hydrogen safety
- Hydrogen in the gas grid
- Value chain & hydrogen admixing
The project resulted in a total of 42 publications including the research results.
