Welcome to HySelect
Solar Hydrogen via the Hybrid Sulphur Cycle
This European project will demonstrate the production of hydrogen (H2) by splitting water via concentrated solar technologies (CST) with an attractive efficiency and cost, through the Hybrid Sulphur cycle (HyS) and will introduce, develop and operate under real conditions a complete H2 production chain.
Product
Solar Hydrogen Production
Recent developments and innovations from the consortium partners will be implemented to achieve highly efficient, long-term & cost-competitive concentrated solar energy driven thermochemical hydrogen production.
Energy Source
Concentrated Solar Technology
Use of concentrated solar radiation as a heat source through the solid particle receivers’ technology and in particular the innovative centrifugal receiver CentRec® developed and patented by DLR.
Innovation
Hybrid Sulphur Cycle
The ambition of HySelect is to close the technical gaps and provide the missing links in the overall, complete HyS cycle technology concept, for a realistic overall evaluation of the technology and its scaleup.
Project Partners
A multi-disciplinary project consortium with experienced project partners from research institutions and industry.
European countries
An international project with partners from Germany, Greece, Finland, Italy and Austria.
Project duration
The project has started at the beginning of 2023 and is planned to finish by the end of 2026.
Overall budget
The project is co-funded by the European Union and supported by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership.
A Research project funded by the European Union and the Clean Hydrogen Partnership
The Clean Hydrogen Joint Undertaking is a collaboration between the European Commission, Hydrogen Europe, and Hydrogen Europe Research. Its objective is to fund research and innovation projects in hydrogen technologies to accelerate the development and optimization of advanced clean hydrogen applications in the EU.
