About H2NET
The UK Hydrogen Energy Network (H2NET) was established in April 2000 as a joint collaboration between UK industry and academia interested in the development of hydrogen as an energy vector. Its principal aim is to promote research and discussion on issues connected with the development of the hydrogen energy economy. The formation of the Network was prompted by wider international developments in the technologies underpinning a hydrogen energy economy.
The Network's objectives are to enhance the current profile of hydrogen energy research in the UK by :
identifying research requirements and facilitating the development of academic/industrial collaborations in the UK
providing a forum for the discussion of research, development, and implementation issues related to hydrogen energy exploitation
These objectives are addressed through a regular series of workshops and seminars, backed up by a web site and e-mail discussion group. The Network is guided by a steering committee drawn from industrial groups and university departments.
H2NET was supported for its first 3 years (2000-2003) by a grant from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and then for 2 years by the UK Department of Trade & Industry (DTI) under contract no. U/00/00072/00/00.
H2NET is currently supported by the UK Department of Trade & Industry (DTI) under contract no. 14034676.
Membership of the Network is free to all those having a research or commercial interest in hydrogen energy. If you are interested in joining the Network, please contact Dr Geoff Dutton, the Network Director, at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon, OX11 0QX (Fax: +44 1235 446863, e-mail: a.g.dutton@rl.ac.uk) or complete and return a Membership Registration form
