H2CITIES

Join to learn more about the H2CITIES project and EOI for cities in Visegrad Group countries to become hydrogen living labs

H﻿2CITIES ProjectHydrogen adoption has been plagued by a circular conundrum: high production cost, low demand, no infrastructure, and cities lacking knowledge, relations, and capacity to adapt to hydrogen. In response, the H2CITIES project, funded by the EIT, will create Hydrogen Living Labs in two cities. The final objective of H2CITIES is to support the transition to H2 in cities for clean transport and accessibility of all citizens. This is the first step of a complex and multi-step transition that will culminate when fully clean/green H2 is used. Each H2City selected will benefit from up to five types of hydrogen vehicles on their streets from among buses, waste trucks, shuttles, lightweight public services, private cars, and logistics trucks. The Candidate Cities will also have direct funding to support their engagement and adoption. Innovators will demonstrate new products, build out supply chains, test new components and work with local community and citizens on adapting to a new hydrogen economy. H2CITIES will break the circular conundrum to build a replicable roadmap for other cities to add hydrogen into their existing Net Zero strategies. The project provides a unique opportunity for cities to place themselves at the forefront of the EU Hydrogen Valley strategy. The H2CITIES project is also an umbrella programme for wider engagement beyond the immediate funding available. H2CITIES will fund two cities in the immediate workplan. Additionally, it will create a city reserve list to be used when additional funding is allocated. E﻿xpression of InterestThe H2CITIES project has launched a Call for Expression of Interest for cities in Visegrad Group countries - Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. H2CITIES will support two selected cities to become hydrogen living labs where at least 5 hydrogen vehicles will be tested and demonstrated. To help applicants with the preparation and submission of their proposals, EIT Urban Mobility will present informative events that will provide an overview of the H2CITIES project, the Call for EOI content, scope, eligibility, the submission and evaluation procedures, timelines, and financing. T﻿he session will include a keynote speech from Dr. Maria Nelson, Head of Innovation and Sustainability from the Aerospace Technology Institute.Additionally, H2CITIES project industry partners will present: -﻿ János Onódi, Mobility &amp; Innovation Production- Lamberto Salvan, Business Development Manager of Alkè- Dr. M﻿arkus Hirth, Head of Business Development of KONTAKT-ElektroSessions specifically focussed on the Expressions of Interest will be held in local Visegrad Group country languages:<a href="https://www.eventbrite.es/e/h2cities-eoi-information-session-czech-language-tickets-622439602607">EOI info session / Czech language session</a>: 17 May 2023, 14:00 - 15.30 CET<a href="https://www.eventbrite.es/e/h2cities-eoi-information-session-slovakian-language-tickets-622439953657">EOI info session / Slovakian language session:</a> 18 May 2023, 14:00 - 15.30 CET<a href="https://www.eventbrite.es/e/h2cities-eoi-information-session-polish-language-tickets-622440625667">EOI info session / Polish language session:</a> 19 May 2023, 14:00 - 15.30 CET<a href="https://www.eventbrite.es/e/h2cities-eoi-information-session-hungarian-language-tickets-622440906507">EOI info session / Hungarian language session:</a> 22 May 2023, 14:00 - 15.30 CETM﻿ake sure to familiarise yourself with the Expression of Interest call manual available here: <a href="https://www.eiturbanmobility.eu/call-for-expression-of-interest-h2cities/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.eiturbanmobility.eu/call-for-expression-of-interest-h2cities/ </a>
