ECOHYDRO ECONOMIC MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF RECYCLABLE COMPOSITE MATERIALS FOR DURABLE HYDROGEN STORAGE

Our focus extends from production to end-use, emphasizing the critical role of storage and transportation in realizing hydrogen's potential as a sustainable energy vector.

Through collaboration with leading experts and industry partners, ECOHYDRO aims to revolutionize hydrogen storage. Our approach integrates advanced materials, smart monitoring systems, and innovative manufacturing processes. By leveraging recyclable composite materials, in-situ polymerization, and predictive maintenance techniques, we strive to reduce whole life costs, enhance safety, and increase the service life of hydrogen storage solutions.

Join us on this journey towards a greener, more sustainable future. Together, we can unlock the full potential of hydrogen as a cornerstone of Europe's clean energy landscape.

  • Standardized inspection and repair methods: Through the integration of smart monitoring systems and predictive maintenance techniques, we seek to enhance the safety and longevity of hydrogen storage infrastructure, minimizing downtime and maximizing efficiency.
  • Cross-application utilization: ECOHYDRO is committed to promoting the re-use of hydrogen storage assets across multiple applications, fostering resource efficiency and reducing waste.
  • Increased storage capacity: Our project endeavors to demonstrate the feasibility of larger-scale, cost-effective storage solutions for aboveground and road transport applications, enabling greater adoption of hydrogen as an energy carrier.
  • Optimized onboard storage: With a focus on heavy-duty trucks and aviation, ECOHYDRO aims to develop lightweight, high-capacity storage systems, unlocking new possibilities for hydrogen-powered transportation.
  • Environmental impact reduction: Throughout our research and development process, we prioritize environmental sustainability, striving to minimize the carbon footprint and ecological impact of hydrogen storage technologies.

Join us in our quest to revolutionize hydrogen storage and propel Europe towards a cleaner, greener energy future. Together, we can make a difference.
