Project description
The aim of the project is for AMPO to gain a foothold both in the industrial market in which H2 is handled under high pressure and/or high and low temperature conditions, and in the transport and storage area, where complexity of sealing and operation are critical. The project is to be taken forward within the scope of the Basque Hydrogen Corridor (BH2C), of which AMPO is a member.
The project includes the following lines of action:
- industrialisation and design of valves for high pressure hydrogen gas service;
- development of valves for pipeline transport of gas with extremely low emission levels;
- system integration in the hydrogen refuelling filling system;
- development of manual or actuated valves for biomass service (circular economy); and
- design and development of manual or actuated valves for synthetic fuels service (new renewable fuels).

Impacto medioambiental
The development of hydrogen technology as part of this project will be essential in the context of the European Green Deal and the green economy, thereby helping to support efforts to mitigate climate change. Apart from its potential as an energy carrier in decarbonising electricity, heat, transport and certain industrial processes, green hydrogen also represents a high added-value feedstock for many industries that currently use it as such in their production processes.
As part of this initiative, the project is also expected to provide valuable equipment for handling fluids derived from organic waste and/or CO2, helping to obtain mostly gases that can be injected into the market as fuel or feedstock for various industries.
