ENVIPARK
Environment Park (ENVI) is Turin’s Science and Technology Park dedicated to the environment. ENVI promotes sustainable innovation and supports companies who want to invest in clean technologies, providing expert technical advice in: advanced energy systems, energy efficiency and green construction, green chemistry, and technology transfer for clean industrial solutions.
Within its spaces, ENVI manages a 500sqm large laboratory dedicated to hydrogen R&D, developed in conjunction with Politecnico di Torino and Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia. The laboratory infrastructure can accommodate around 12 test benches equipped with different gas lines (hydrogen, methane, nitrogen etc) and advanced safety systems. ENVI can also work on fermentation tests and anaerobic digestion of biomass for the production of biohydrogen and biomethane. ENVI labs are open to companies requiring support in the development of innovative products and processes. ENVI is therefore the reference point for the local hydrogen ecosystem, working also with local authorities, research organisations, enterprises and the civil society. ENVI is also the manager of cluster CLEVER, the innovation cluster on clean technologies (120 associates).
ENVI contribution within H2SHIFT project
ENVI is in charge of the communication, dissemination and exploitation activities of the project, from coordinating the set up and management of the website and the social network accounts to the support to the launch of the project’s Open Calls to the liaison with the hydrogen ecosystem of companies who can access the OITB services, amongst others. In cooperation with the project partners, ENVI will ensure that the project is widely known both to the general public and the R&I community also through participation to sector events and fairs, and technical articles and publications raising awareness of the opportunities offered.
