Advent Technologies, an innovation-driven leader in the fuel
cell and hydrogen technology sectors, is pleased to announce that
its wholly owned subsidiary, Advanced Energy Technologies S.A., has
received the formal invitation from the Greek Ministry of Economy
and Finance to immediately submit the requested documentation for
its Green HiPo Important Project of Common European Interest
(“IPCEI”) project.
After Advent submits the requested documentation, the Greek
Ministry of Economy and Finance is expected to proceed with the
disbursement of a €24 million state aid package from Greece’s Just
Transition Fund (JTF) for the implementation of the Green HiPo
project. Expenses related to the project are eligible for
reimbursement retroactive to June 15, 2022, the date of
notification to the European Union’s Directorate-General for
Competition of Greece’s participation in the IPCEI Hy2Tech program.
Advent will also look to secure additional funding to round out the
full €60 million which was authorized under the IPCEI’s project
budget.
Advent was one of only eight small and medium-sized entities
(“SMEs”) to have received ratification within Europe under the
“IPCEI Hy2Tech” program. The project's direct participants will
cooperate closely through numerous planned collaborations with more
than 300 external partners, such as universities, research
organizations and SMEs across Europe.
The Green HiPo project involves the development, design, and
manufacture of state-of-the-art HT-PEM fuel cells and electrolysers
for the production of power and green hydrogen, respectively. The
project will be based in the Western Macedonia region of Greece and
will be instrumental in the region's transition to a greener
economic model. A new state-of-the-art facility in Kozani, Greece
will be home to fuel cell and electrolyser production. It will
contribute to the economic development of the region and help
Europe achieve its current target of 10 million tons of renewable
hydrogen production by 2030.
Dr. Vasilis Gregoriou, Chairman and CEO of Advent
Technologies, commented: "The long anticipated invitation or
“call” for the Green HiPo project from the Greek State has finally
arrived. Green HiPo, alongside other initiatives slated for
implementation in Western Macedonia, represents a very real
opportunity for the region to transition from a coal-dependent
economy to a more environmentally friendly economic model. We are
excited to continue working with our partners across Europe to move
forward towards energy security and independence, with hydrogen
technologies playing a crucial role."
