Interregional Innovation Investments Strand 2a

About NACHIP The NACHIP is an I3 project financed under the Interregional Innovation Investments call I3-2023-INV2a , which aims to accelerate innovation related to the North Adriatic Hydrogen Ecosystem (NAHV), with a focus on investments in hydrogen technologies. The goal is to strengthen the integration of hydrogen technologies into the ecosystem, boosting sustainability and enhancing the development of the hydrogen market. This project targets three main value chains (manufacturing, urban areas, and mobility) through five pilot actions: 1. Green hydrogen production from wave energy – Pag, Croatia This pilot explores the production of green hydrogen with a novel technology that captures wave energy through a system of underwater devices installed beneath the sea surface. The pilot will also feature the application of multifunctional breakwater technology, being deployed for the first time in Europe. 2. Hydrogen use in urban Areas – Velenje, Slovenia This pilot aims to establish a system for decentralized supply of energy from onsite renewables to be developed, operated and validated on a public building. The pilot focuses on integrating clean technologies through sector coupling
