Hydrogen in education: H2inO

These video clips walk you through the hydrogen chain, exploring its journey from production to its role as a feedstock in chemical (and biochemical) plants. With H2inO, we bring hydrogen and sustainable energy closer to young people in primary and secondary education. We support educational initiatives across the GroenvermogenNL regions by sharing knowledge and insights, fostering connections and helping successful initiatives scale up. This enables students to discover the role they can play in shaping the energy system of the future. Together, we make hydrogen visible, relevant and inspiring for the next generation that will drive the energy and hydrogen transition forward. All educational materials developed through H2inO are particularly well suited for use within the Techkwadraat regions and the Sterk Techniekonderwijs (STO) regions.

The animation explains the nature of hydrogen and the part it could play in driving our economy.

Jeroen, a project engineer, explains how hydrogen plants will soon produce an adequate supply of hydrogen in this video.

Marjolijn, a project developer, explains how wind energy and solar power can be harnessed to generate green hydrogen in this video.

Lars, a student, describes his research into environmentally friendly hydrogen technologies in this video.

Suzanne, a technical researcher, explains her research into safety and gas pipelines in this video.

Raoul, an electrical technician, gives details of his work on cutting-edge hydrogen-powered vehicles in this video.

Tim, a teacher, describes various ways of using hydrogen as a raw material in this video.

Teachers and communication professionals in education spend their days designing and improving teaching materials and messaging for programmes involving technology, potentially with an emphasis on hydrogen technology. When deciding on matters like developing lesson materials and teaching resources, it’s vital to ensure they resonate with what inspires young people.
