From Collaboration to Real-World Change
Contributing to Projects That Drive Transformation
OUR PROJECTS
ICN contributes to EU and international projects that turn cleantech innovation into measurable climate impact — shaping, funding, and delivering real-world results with cities, corporates, and clusters.
Aurora
AURORA seizmic KIC is a two-year EIT Higher Education Initiative project that embeds social entrepreneurship into the AURORA European University Alliance. By enhancing the seizmic APP platform with EIT resources and adding an AI mentor, the project aims to engage 4,000 students, ten startups, and 20 student venture teams.
Hyco2
HyCO2 is a three-year European project advancing next-generation metal hydride hydrogen compression. Supported by €5 million from the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, it will demonstrate high-capacity, oil-free compression up to 900 bar, enabling scalable, sustainable hydrogen infrastructure across Europe.
HI2 Valley
HI2 Valley is ICN’s flagship energy project — a six-year initiative uniting 50 partners across Austria to build Europe’s leading industrial hydrogen ecosystem. Supported by €20 million in Horizon Europe funding and nearly €600 million in total investment, it is a defining step toward large-scale decarbonisation and clean energy leadership.
