Summary/Scope

The Cretan-Aegean Hydrogen Valley is an ambitious project with the aim of revolutionising the use of hydrogen on the Greek island of Crete and the rest of the country. It aims to establish a production and distribution centre for green hydrogen, allowing for the reuse of energy stored in the grid through fuel cells and Green H2 Road Transport. The EU-funded CRAVE-H2 project covers all the necessary steps in the hydrogen value chain, ranging from production to high-pressure storage and distribution to hydrogen filling stations, as well as potential other off-takers. The project will be located at the port of Atherinolakkos and will facilitate the 580 MW Aegean Wind Energy project, along with the new Greek-Egypt electricity transmission interconnection, introducing cost-effective African PV power into Greece.
