Oulu GH2 – Accel­er­at­ing the Green Hydro­gen Econ­o­my in Oulu and North­ern Fin­land

The project aims to cre­ate an oper­a­tional mod­el for a cen­tral­ized hydro­gen econ­o­my inno­va­tion ecosys­tem in the Oulu and North­ern Ostro­both­nia region. The objec­tive is to con­nect com­pa­nies, research, devel­op­ment, and inno­va­tion actors, as well as the pub­lic sec­tor, in a col­lab­o­ra­tion that pro­motes, devel­ops, and enables the launch of future hydro­gen busi­ness activ­i­ties in the region.

The project effec­tive­ly inte­grates a busi­ness-dri­ven busi­ness ecosys­tem with a research-dri­ven knowl­edge ecosys­tem while estab­lish­ing links with nation­al and inter­na­tion­al stake­hold­ers.

The oper­a­tions of Oulu GH2 and the hydro­gen econ­o­my inno­va­tion ecosys­tem will con­tin­ue active­ly through busi­ness clus­ter col­lab­o­ra­tion, around which sci­en­tif­ic and com­mer­cial fol­low-up projects, such as those relat­ed to tech­no­log­i­cal solu­tions, will be built.

The project is co-fund­ed by the Euro­pean Union.
