A ABHIC (Brazilian Association of Hydrogen and Sustainable Fuels), the Sapiens Park and the UFSC Photovoltaics (Photovoltaic Solar Energy Laboratory of the Federal University of Santa Catarina) carried out, last Friday (10), a workshop to search partnerships for the projectHydrogen in the context of the Brazilian electricity sector”.

O event, authored by ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency), referring to call number 023/2024, was accomplished in the auditorium of laboratory from the Photovoltaic/UFSC, at Sapiens Parque.

According to entities, the workshop aims to goal explore the details of process in registration in projects supported by PDI (Research, Development and Innovation Program), focusing on the integration of renewable hydrogen production systems in a sustainable manner.

The event approached topics like challenges and the perspectives for articulation international, the scientific aspects It is technological, in addition to the commercial issues, legal and regulatory of hydrogen, among other relevant topics in the sector. 

In addition to seek partnerships for the project, the event promoted also a discussion with experts about the emerging opportunities in the field of hydrogen, especially in the context of the project. 

Second Sergio Costa, founder and president of ABHIC and one of the event’s participants, “is essential to unite efforts It is knowledge in favor of development of the chain of hydrogen at the Brazil. By means of events like this, it is possible to connect companies, O public Power It is experts in the topic to search make projects viable of this segment”. 

Other meeting details

During the workshop, participants also had the opportunity to have a technical visit with a detailed view of the facilities of the Green Hydrogen laboratory at Fotovoltaica/UFSC.

The laboratory has electrolyzers for the production of green hydrogen, powered by photovoltaic systems integrated into the building that houses the laboratory. 

The green hydrogen produced is used for the production of green ammonia and power generation through fuel cells. Furthermore, all the water used in the process comes from rainwater collected by the laboratory. 

“Thus, the laboratory building is also an equipment in itself, as it houses the green H2 and NH3 production equipment, at the same time as it captures all the water and electrical energy for these energy-intensive processes on its roofs and facades. ”, explained the association.  

Participating in the workshop were Sérgio Augusto Costa, president of ABHIC; Eduardo Vieira, president of Sapiens Parque; Frederico Taves, director of Science, Technology and Innovation at Sapiens Parque and technical director at ABHIC; Karla de Paulo, Financial Director of ABHIC; and Juliano Froehner, secretary of International Articulation of Santa Catarina, 

Also present was Ricardo Rüther, professor and coordinator of the Photovoltaic Solar Energy Laboratory at Fotovoltaica/UFSC; Lucas Nascimento, researcher at Fotovoltaica/UFSC; Maíra Mallmann, researcher at Fotovoltaica/UFSC, and João Tanan, Operations director at Cerumar Capital.

  1. Attention, I have already managed to develop a battery model that RECHARGE ITSELF, it does not need external connections for it. We finally have the end of the toters for recharging. This battery model will be used for combustion or ELECTRIC vehicles.
