The SHIMMER project was presented at the EU Hydrogen Research and Innovation Days 2025, held on Tuesday, 25 November in Brussels (Belgium). The event brought together experts, policymakers, and innovators to discuss the role of hydrogen in Europe’s energy transition.
Huib Blokland, Project Manager in Energy Transition at TNO, represented the project in the panel titled “Cross-Cutting Aspects – Safety and Pre-Normative Research for Standardisation.” During his intervention, he presented the consortium’s progress in identifying the technical and regulatory gaps that still limit the safe integration of hydrogen into existing multi-gas networks across Europe. The presentation consisted of an overall review of the project, checking the carried out activities in each Work Package.
Our presence at this event demonstrates the level of research being carried out in our project, the results of which will serve to secure the use of hydrogen in Europe’s energy system. The project has also had the opportunity to exchange insights with stakeholders and other EU-funded projects, all focused on accelerating Europe’s clean hydrogen transition.
