Hy2Market to Be Showcased at ICSET 2025 in Lipari

From 22 to 26 June 2025, the island of Lipari (Italy) will host the International Conference on Sustainable and Environmental Technologies (ICSET 2025). The event brings together more than 250 international experts, researchers, and innovators working on hydrogen, renewable energy, decarbonisation, and sustainability.

Hy2Market will be featured prominently in the programme through a dedicated session:

Session 18 – Hydrogen Economy in EU Demonstration Project: Hy2Market

Wednesday, 25 June | Chair: Dirk Koppert (New Energy Coalition) & Francesco Sergi (CNR-ITAE)

This session will present the work of Hy2Market partners from across Europe who are accelerating the uptake of hydrogen solutions through over 15 pilot and investment projects. The session features a keynote presentation and six contributions, covering innovations across the hydrogen value chain—from production and storage to industrial use and clean transport.
