H2!Raum - Mittelstand Ruhr 2030

Location Fraunhofer Institution IEG Bochum

In March 2023, the BMBF-funded project "T!Raum - TransferRäume für die Zukunft von Regionen" (T!Space - Transfer Spaces for the Future of Regions) launched the initiative "H2!Raum Mittelstand Ruhr 2030" (H2R) for the implementation of transfer tasks in the field of hydrogen in the Ruhr region. The implementation is carried out by a consortium of Westphalian University, the Fraunhofer Institute for Energy Infrastructures and Geothermal Energy IEG and other partners.

H2R aims to promote the decarbonisation of energy production and use with the help of regeneratively produced hydrogen. To this end, the transfer space is to be gradually established as a regional demonstration, innovation and competence centre for hydrogen systems. H2R involves numerous medium-sized companies and aims to develop and test transfer formats with their associated activities and service modules in an agile form of cooperation and different structures. In this way, the initiative aims to deliver results on a broad energy transition for SMEs.
