GREEN HYSLAND aims to deploy a fully-functioning Hydrogen (H2) ecosystem in the island of Mallorca, Spain, turning the island into the first H2 hub in Southern Europe. This will be achieved by producing green hydrogen from solar energy and delivering it to the end users, such as the island’s tourism, transport, industry and energy sectors, including gas grid injection for green heat and power local end-use. The development of replication experiences and business models are foreseen in five other EU islands (Madeira – PT, Tenerife – ES, Aran – IE, Greek Islands and Ameland – NL) and beyond (Chile and Morocco)

CNH2 works in WP5 (“Creation and Analysis of Impact and Development of Business Models”). In this WP, partners will evaluate the impact of deployment of H2 technologies at regional level (Mallorca and Balearic islands) at technical, economic, energetic, environmental, regulatory and socioeconomic levels. CNH2 will use up-to-date LCA methodologies to understand and quantify the life-cycle environmental performance of all technologies and process chains deployed in the project. This assessment will be used to guide the development of the project through key environmental performance indicators. Also, CNH2 participates in WP6, (“Scaling up and Replication of Hydrogen islands ecosystems across the EU”), and WP7 (“Communication, Dissemination & Exploitation”). The main objective of WP7 is increasing impact through activities of communication, dissemination and exploitation of project’s results. Education, training and capacity building are considered of key importance at communication level, to raise awareness of the main aspects of GREEN HYSLAND project. During the development and roll-out of the planned activities of the project, CNH2 and other partners, with support from local partners, will develop specific needs on technical training and educational knowledge.
