Since January 2025, the free training programme ‘Green Hydrogen for technical profiles’ is being developed as part of the European project FUTURETECH_H2, in which CATEC participates, a cross-border initiative between Portugal and Spain that seeks to train the green hydrogen value chain.
In the framework of the European project FUTURETECH_H2, CATEC have participated in the town of Barrancos (Portugal) in a day of exchange of experiences between the students of the technical and non-technical training courses in green hydrogen, organised in parallel in Spain and Portugal for professionals from Alentejo and the cross-border area of Andalusia.
The Implementation and Monitoring Committee of the Futuretech_H2 project, led by the Federation of Metal Entrepreneurs (FEDEME), held on Wednesday 4th December, a new coordination meeting, in which CATEC was represented by our colleague Rocío Baya Arenas, Engineer of the Automation and Robotics Unit.
Members of the FUTURTECH_H2 consortium, including CATEC, participated last June 28th in the 1st Group Meeting of local agents of the European project Green Hydra ‘Improving Policies for engaging SMEs in the green hydrogen ecosystem’, held at the Club Cámara Antares, in Seville.
The Futuretech H2 project, framed in the 3rd Call of the Interreg VI-A Spain-Portugal Program (Poctep) 2021-2027, recently presented a diagnosis on the current state and prospects of the green hydrogen sector in the regions of Andalusia and Alentejo. This study, led by the Advanced Center for Aerospace Technologies (Catec), reveals a significant “potential for the development of necessary technologies and equipment in this crucial sector for the energy transition".
The project "FUTURETECH_H2: Promotion and Technological Development of the Green Hydrogen Industry," part of the 3rd Call for the Spain-Portugal Cross-Border Cooperation Program Interreg VI-A (POCTEP) 2021-2027, in which CATEC participates, now has its own corporate website, which can be accessed at: www.futuretech-h2.eu.
