Project for the production of green hydrogen

Publicada el agosto 1, 2023marzo 3, 2026 por BasqueScience

It has a contribution of 1.5 million euros from CIEMAT and will be carried out at the Vitoria-Gasteiz School of Engineering. (Autor: Ainhoa López-Abadía Urresti)

The Centre for Energy, Environmental and Technological Research (CIEMAT) has awarded a 1.5 million euro grant for the offshore wind energy development and green hydrogen production project at the Vitoria-Gasteiz School of Engineering. During the visit by CIEMAT technicians, the vice-rector of the Alava Campus, Manoli Igartua, the director of the School, Zuriñe Gómez de Balugera, and those responsible for the project, Unai Fernandez Gámiz and Ekaitz Zulueta, were present.

The project will be carried out over two years and aims to develop and optimise the technology for the generation of renewable energy, mainly offshore wind and solar photovoltaic energy, in different situations and environments, as well as the production of hydrogen from these sources. To achieve this, a scientific infrastructure will be acquired and installed at the facilities of the Vitoria-Gasteiz School of Engineering to develop and test the techniques required to improve the efficiency of renewable energy generation systems and reduce the cost of hydrogen production from these sources.

In addition, the infrastructure proposed for the project will allow the development of new algorithms based on Artificial Intelligence in order to make the green hydrogen production process more competitive. CIEMAT is a Public Research Organisation attached to the Ministry of Science and Innovation through the General Secretariat for Research, mainly focused on the fields of energy, environment and related technological fields.

Proyecto para la producción de hidrógeno verde

Cuenta con una aportación de 1,5 millones de euros del CIEMAT y se desarrollará en la Escuela de Ingeniería de Vitoria-Gasteiz.

Técnicos del CIEMAT (Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas) han visitado las instalaciones de la Escuela de Ingeniería de Vitoria-Gasteiz con motivo de la subvención otorgada para el desarrollo del proyecto ‘Energía eólica offshore para el ensayo y el desarrollo energético de energías renovables e hidrógeno verde’. En la vista han estado acompañados por la vicerrectora del Campus de Álava, Manoli Igartua, la directora de la Escuela, Zuriñe Gómez de Balugera, y los responsables del proyecto Unai Fernandez Gámiz y Ekaitz Zulueta.

El proyecto, que se extenderá a lo largo de dos años, consiste en el desarrollo y optimización de la tecnología para la generación de energía renovable, fundamentalmente energía eólica offshore y solar fotovoltaica, en diferentes situaciones y/o entornos, y la producción de hidrogeno a partir de esas fuentes.

Para ello se va a adquirir y montar en las instalaciones de la Escuela de Ingenieria de Vitoria-Gasteiz una infraestructura científica que permita desarrollar y testar el conjunto de técnicas necesarias para hacer que los sistemas de generación de energía renovable sean más eficientes y, por tanto, se pueda reducir el precio de la producción de hidrogeno a partir de esas fuentes.

Así mismo, la infraestructura que se plantea instalar para el proyecto va a permitir desarrollar nuevos algoritmos basados en Inteligencia Artificial para hacer más competitivo el proceso de producción de hidrógeno verde.

La ayuda concedida por el CIEMAT de los Fondos de Resiliencia asciende a 1,5 millones de euros. El CIEMAT es un Organismo Público de Investigación adscrito al Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación a través de la Secretaría General de Investigación, focalizado principalmente en los ámbitos de la energía y el medio ambiente y los campos tecnológicos relacionados con ambos.

Projet de production d’hydrogène vert

Il bénéficie d’une contribution de 1,5 million d’euros du CIEMAT et sera développé à l’école d’ingénieurs de Vitoria-Gasteiz.

Le Centre de recherche énergétique, environnementale et technologique (CIEMAT) a accordé une subvention de 1,5 million d’euros au projet de développement de l’énergie éolienne offshore et de production d’hydrogène vert de l’École d’ingénieurs de Vitoria-Gasteiz. Lors de la visite des techniciens du CIEMAT, le vice-recteur du campus de l’Alava, Manoli Igartua, la directrice de l’école, Zuriñe Gómez de Balugera, et les responsables du projet, Unai Fernandez Gámiz et Ekaitz Zulueta, étaient présents.

Le projet, qui se déroulera sur deux ans, vise à développer et à optimiser la technologie de production d’énergie renouvelable, principalement l’énergie éolienne offshore et l’énergie solaire photovoltaïque, dans différentes situations et différents environnements, ainsi que la production d’hydrogène à partir de ces sources. Pour ce faire, une infrastructure scientifique sera acquise et installée dans les locaux de l’école d’ingénieurs de Vitoria-Gasteiz afin de développer et de tester les techniques nécessaires pour améliorer l’efficacité des systèmes de production d’énergie renouvelable et réduire le coût de la production d’hydrogène à partir de ces sources.
