Launch of the HAPPIS project: Polymeris supports skills development for the hydrogen sector

Already recognized worldwide for its research on hydrogen combustion engines—notably through the ANR Delhyce industrial chair, the OpenLab Energetics (with Stellantis) and Soonly (with Phinia) joint laboratories, and the France 2030 Hyceval and PL-H2 projects—the University of Orleans is taking a new step forward by committing to the development of training for the hydrogen sector.

As part of the call for expressions of interest “Skills and Jobs of the Future,” an application was submitted in December 2023 by the University of Orleans, in collaboration with the University of Tours, INSA Centre-Val de Loire, the Orleans-Tours Academy, the Centre-Val de Loire Region, the CARA, S2E2 and Polymeris competitiveness clusters, as well as Centres Sciences and the Elles Bougent association. This consortium was selected for the HAPPIS project – Hydrogen: Industrial Applications and Safety, which aims to meet the skills needs of the hydrogen sector by 2030.

Polymeris, as a competitiveness cluster, will play an active role in supporting the project by facilitating links between industrial, academic, and regional players to ensure that the training offered is in line with the sector's specific needs.
