Shaping the energy transition in the Euregion using sustainable hydrogen
During this event on Friday 21 October at the Brightlands Chemelot campus in Geleen, various speakers will talk about the opportunities of hydrogen for numerous parties in the Euroregion in general and Dutch-Limburg in particular.
Next to that LIOF will facilitate matchmaking so you will have plenty of opportunities to meet Euregional parties active in the field of hydrogen!
