GVNL Perspective Online | How can the production of sustainable aviation fuel take off?
De luchtvaart draagt bij aan de opwarming van de aarde. Om dit tegen te gaan zal de EU de sector verplichten om in toenemende mate duurzame vliegtuigbrandstof (SAF) te gebruiken. Deze brandstof zal deels geproduceerd worden met groene waterstof. Het is nog een hele puzzel om deze nieuwe productieketen op poten te zetten.
Kick-off of HyCARB. “Unique project to make chemistry more sustainable”
On Wednesday 11 March the kick-off of HyCARB took place: a major project within the R&D programme of GroenvermogenNL. A broad consortium of knowledge institutions and dozens of companies gathered in Utrecht to collaborate on innovative, practical solutions for the sustainable and clean production of carbon-based chemicals.
GVNL Perspective Online | Fueling green hydrogen: how to secure project financing
Groene waterstof werd ooit gepresenteerd als heilige graal voor een duurzame toekomst. Inmiddels kijken de meeste mensen er wat nuchterder tegenaan. Zo ook investeerders en financiers
GVNL Perspective Online | Europe’s smart hydrogen hub
The Netherlands has been a trading nation for centuries, thanks to its strategic location, strong ports and well-developed infrastructure. This now gives the country a unique opportunity to become Europe’s smart hydrogen hub. However, significant challenges in infrastructure still need to be addressed. René Peters, Business Director Energy Infrastructure at TNO, explains.
GVNL Perspective Online | A distinctive approach to the R&D programme: one call, one consortium, one project plan
Het R&D-programma van GroenvermogenNL kent een bijzondere aanpak. In de calls worden inschrijvers uitgedaagd om één consortium te vormen en te werken aan één integraal plan. Sandra de Keijzer, hoofd Chemie en Natuurkunde bij NWO, en Paulien Herder, bestuurslid van GroenvermogenNL, lichten de keuze hiervoor toe.
GVNL Perspective Online | The manufacturing industry tests and proves innovations
The pilot programme of GroenvermogenNL supports the manufacturing industry through matchmaking and financial resources, for example via the DEI+ scheme. By the end of 2025, eight DEI+ projects had been approved, with a total of more than €30 million in subsidy and nearly €70 million in investment from industry. Specifically for the manufacturing industry, there is the IMKE scheme: the Investment Subsidy for the Manufacturing Industry in a Climate Neutral Economy. The IMKE scheme is intended for the production of electrolysers and electrolyser components. In 2025, two IMKE projects were launched.
GVNL Perspective Online | H2 Academy for Resato Hydrogen Technology
With the magazine GVNL Perspective, we make visible how the hydrogen transition is developing from ambition to implementation. In this online series, we share articles from the first issue of GVNL Perspective, featuring expert insights, inspiring stories from pioneers and examples of innovation that show how the Netherlands is realising the promise of green hydrogen step by step, driven by a shared determination to move forward.
AMMONEX pilot takes next step towards green hydrogen from ammonia
Duiker Clean Technologies and Plant One have signed a cooperation agreement for the realization of the AMMONEX pilot plant in Rotterdam. With this agreement, the location at Plant One is formally reserved, allowing the project to move into the next phase: the construction and testing of an innovative ammonia cracking reactor for the production of green hydrogen. The plant is expected to be ready for initial testing in the summer of 2027.
