H2School — hydro­gen knowl­edge to dif­fer­ent orga­ni­za­tions

H2School-project will gen­er­ate infor­ma­tion and edu­ca­tion­al mate­r­i­al about hydro­gen, its pos­si­bil­i­ties, usage, stor­ing, safe­ty issues and it’s use in full scale indus­tri­al appli­ca­tions.

This infor­ma­tion is need­ed in var­i­ous lev­els of edu­ca­tion for oper­a­tors, tech­ni­cal staff, engi­neers and even man­age­ment pur­pos­es to enable new think­ing and new ways of oper­at­ing to reduce the use of car­bon based fuels and raw mate­ri­als.

The green change from car­bon to hydro­gen will require new kind of knowl­edge and skills for var­i­ous activ­i­ties in the soci­ety, focus­ing on changes in the atti­tude through edu­ca­tion and pro­vid­ing new meth­ods for next gen­er­a­tion indus­tri­al solu­tions.

Through edu­ca­tion, the project aims to increase the num­ber of skilled per­son­nel who are capa­ble of address­ing the chal­lenges of hydro­gen tech­nol­o­gy. It also aims to raise aware­ness among tar­get groups about the use and safe­ty of hydro­gen in var­i­ous appli­ca­tions.

The use of hydro­gen presents not only sig­nif­i­cant oppor­tu­ni­ties but also sub­stan­tial tech­ni­cal chal­lenges, not to men­tion safe­ty con­cerns. With­out prop­er train­ing, com­pa­nies can­not par­tic­i­pate in the hydro­gen econ­o­my.

The project is co-fund­ed by the Euro­pean Union.
