Joint effort to deliver a sustainable system based on green hydrogen
About GroenvermogenNL
Within GroenvermogenNL, the R&D programme is supporting efforts to tackle technical ambiguities, accelerate cost reduction, and foster the development of innovative business models for green hydrogen. There are seven distinct research themes encompassing industrial, applied, and fundamental research.
GroenvermogenNL’s pilot programme is being used by the manufacturing sector to test and validate innovations. In this context, we use matchmaking and harness resources such as the DEI+ scheme. The programme involves projects covering the complete hydrogen chain, including production, transport, storage, and industrial applications.
GroenvermogenNL’s scaling-up programme is designed to jump-start ongoing hydrogen (electrolyser) projects by leveraging specific schemes and facilitating knowledge sharing, while also promoting the development of new demonstration projects. We are also developing a national facility for testing the endurance of green hydrogen equipment.
GroenvermogenNL’s Human Capital Agenda aims to ensure that there is an adequate pool of hydrogen professionals equipped with the requisite knowledge and skills. We actively collaborate with the education sector, businesses, government agencies and knowledge institutions to transform technical innovations into practical skills for the workforce.

Building a skilled and flexible workforce for the hydrogen economy of tomorrow
Ensuring professionals have the right hydrogen knowledge and skills at the right time is crucial to making the hydrogen transition a success. That’s the mission of GroenvermogenNL’s Make Hydrogen Work program. On June 24, educators, policymakers, and industry leaders came together at the Let’s Make Hydrogen Work event to build a strong learning culture. The main question of the day: how can we make hydrogen a driving force in our workforce?
Launch of the International Hydrogen Guide: Excelling in Hydrogen
During the 2025 World Hydrogen Summit in Rotterdam, the latest edition of the international hydrogen guide Excelling in Hydrogen was officially launched. This annual English-language publication showcases how the Netherlands positions itself internationally as a frontrunner in the hydrogen transition. GroenvermogenNL is proud that two of the six highlighted flagship projects were made possible in part through funding from our programme.
