World Hydrogen Summit 2025

TNO at the World Hydrogen Summit 2025

Green hydrogen is essential for a sustainable, climate-neutral future. Yet, stakeholders across the Netherlands, Europe, and the globe face similar challenges:

• How do you deliver hydrogen to the right place, at the right time, and at acceptable costs?
• How do you build a robust hydrogen value chain when investments are still high-risk and infrastructure remains in flux?

TNO is addressing exactly these challenges – with innovation, integrated solutions, and collaboration as key enablers. From production and energy infrastructure to transport and industrial applications, we work together to make the hydrogen chain scalable, affordable, and reliable.

Accelerating green hydrogen – from lab to market

TNO develops innovations, technologies, models, and partnerships that help fast-track the deployment of green hydrogen. Key areas include:

• Efficient hydrogen production through novel electrolysis technologies
• Smart energy infrastructure and transport solutions
• Storage for flexibility and supply security
• Hydrogen hubs connecting production, distribution, and end-use
• Applications across industry, mobility, and international energy flows

The energy transition doesn’t stop at national borders. That’s why we collaborate with public and private partners in the Netherlands, across Europe, and worldwide to build a resilient hydrogen economy.

Through facilities such as the Faraday Lab, the Hydrohub MW Test Centre, and the Fieldlab Industrial Electrification, we help scale technologies from the lab to the market. In doing so, we are laying the foundation for robust value chains and accelerating the system transformation required for widespread hydrogen deployment.

Driving innovation through EU programmes

TNO plays a leading role in EU programmes, port clusters, industrial value chains, and cutting-edge storage solutions. From IPCEI Hydrogen to system integration within national infrastructure, we bridge the gap between technology and large-scale implementation.
