Broad value chain coverage: Covering multiple steps of the value chain from hydrogen production to storage, transport and off-take.

Supply of more than one end use: Showcasing the versatility of hydrogen by covering more than one end sector or application in the mobility, industry and energy sector.

Large in scale: Setting up two-digit multi-million EUR investment projects that are beyond mere pilot/demo projects as well as scalable or replicable.

Clean hydrogen production: Following a zero/low-carbon hydrogen production pathway.

Geographically defined scope: Creating hydrogen ecosystems that cover a specific geography, from local/national activities to international outreach.

Project feasibility: Projects have to be under real project development, i.e., advancing on a feasibility study level.
