About the H2V Facility
About the H2V Facility
Funded by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, the Hydrogen Valley Facility (H2V Facility)aims to unlock transformative support for Hydrogen Valleys on their way to final investment decision (FID), to support the European Commission's aspirational target of having 50 valleys operational or under construction in the EU by 2030. Roland Berger together with its consortium partners Worley and Inycom were mandated by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership for the set-up and implementation of the H2V Facility. The H2V Facility delivers via three pillars dedicated non-financial support from 2025 until 2030:
- The Hydrogen Valley Platform features European and global hydrogen flagship projects in different maturity stages (pre-FID, under construction and in operations) and provides dedicated insights into hydrogen project development
- The H2V Knowledge Centre is a self-service and interaction platform for the broader hydrogen community, thereby providing dedicated content, knowledge products and formats for exchange on best-practices for projects at different pre-FID maturity levels
- The Project Development Assistance (PDA) is directed to Hydrogen Valleys to advance them from idea to concept (PDA light programme track) and from concept to feasibility stage and ultimately to FID (PDA plus programme track)
