Climate neutral,
justified and sustainable
H2 transition
The project maps the current situation of the hydrogen transition in Finland and the system-level bottlenecks associated with it. Alongside this, the environmental, technical-economic and social effects of the hydrogen transition are examined. The points of convergence of the hydrogen transition with the bio- and circular
economy are evaluated from the perspectives of resource use and sufficiency. Answers and alternatives are sought for these themes, which strengthen the flexibility, resilience and fairness of solutions in our society.
