H2CoVE - Hydrogen Centres of Vocational Excellence
The Hydrogen Centres of Vocational Excellence (H2CoVE) project aims to equip the European workforce with the right and necessary high-quality vocational skills for industries in the emerging value chains for a hydrogen economy. Five regions will pool their knowledge and expertise to build local ecosystems for skills. The need for investments in infrastructure for production, storage and end-use applications for hydrogen is enormous, a skilled workforce is a prerequisite.
The partner regions have complementary assets and specialisations across the hydrogen value chain and will help to build capacity across Europe through cooperation. Among the objectives of the project is the aim to improve required knowledge and skills among students, workers, and the potential workforce on basic and advanced applications for the hydrogen economy, and to develop courses, modules and education programmes which answer to the needs of the industry in the partner regions at different VET levels.
Project period: 2024-2028
Regional partners: Vestland County Council, Vestland University College, Fagskulen Vestland, Saga Fjordbase, Sustainable Energy
