Regional liaisons and learning communities

In 2023, the six industrial clusters started work on their regional roadmaps. For 2024, the key focus was the delivery of the roadmaps, complete with a multi-year action plan and an investment agenda. In 2025, implementation will commence in each region, driven by robust partnerships. To this end, the call entitled Op Weg Naar de Toekomst. Learning communities als aanjagers voor de groenewaterstofeconomie (The road to the future: Learning Communities as drivers of the hydrogen economy) has been officially opened.

Read all about the regional roadmaps

We identify seven regions that broadly correspond to the Netherlands’ industrial clusters. In every region, one or more liaisons bring together consortiums made up of companies, educational institutions, and research organisations to fast-track skill development in their respective regions. GroenvermogenNL facilitates coordination between the regions at national level.

To accelerate the green hydrogen transition, fresh insights from innovations must be swiftly incorporated into education programmes and training courses to equip professionals with essential expertise and skills. Within GroenvermogenNL, innovation institutes and research institutes work hand in hand with businesses and educational institutions to make this happen. That takes place in learning communities.
