Contact ThomasTechForH2 is a new centre for excellence, built to create a Swedish ecosystem perfectly adapted to provide rapid advances in technology concerning transport solutions fuelled with hydrogen propulsion. The centre will contribute to knowledge building and education, and accelerate the introduction of new technology for fossil-free transportation.
Vision: "TechForH2 is an internationally leading excellence centre for application driven multidisciplinary hydrogen research with focus on heavy transport that accelerates the transition to a sustainable energy system by building on national strengths for global impact."
TechForH2 is coordinated and led by Chalmers, which owns the centre together with RISE. The industry partners involved in the centre's activities are Volvo, Scania, PowerCell, Johnson Matthey, Oxeon, GKN Aerospace, Insplorion, Siemens Energy and Stena.
The total budget is SEK 162 million over a five-year period in the first stage, with the possibility of an extension for another five years.
TechForH2’s way to configure its efforts is to start up five multidisciplinary research projects. These projects address three research fronts, i.e., technology integration, technology development and cutting-edge technology innovation. Among these five projects, RISE contribution is focused on the following research areas:
The other two multidisciplinary research projects in TechForH2 are “Fuel cell development and integration” and “The future of hydrogen – societal challenges”.
