Indo-Danish Research and Innovation Cooperation: Call for Proposals on Cutting-Edge Hydrogen Technologies

September 06, 2024

The Department of Science and Technology (DST), Ministry of Science and Technology, Government of India, and Innovation Fund Denmark (IFD) have announced a joint call for project proposals focusing on cutting-edge hydrogen technologies.

Areas of Research

The aim of this India-Denmark call is to enhance value creation through research and innovation in the development of new technologies, solutions, services, and business models related to cutting-edge hydrogen technologies, particularly in:

Green fuels for transport and industry (Power-to-X, etc.)
Solutions to convert renewable electricity into products that can reduce emissions in sectors where there are no cost-effective fossil energy alternatives

Projects can contribute to:

Green hydrogen production, storage, and utilization based on renewable energy
Electrolyser and fuel cell innovations, including boosting production efficiency and finding cost-effective alternatives to rare materials
Manufacturing electrolyser/fuel cell components and system integration
Underground hydrogen storage, compressed tanks, and material-based storage solutions
Decarbonization of industries such as refineries, steel, and ammonia production
Non-electrolysis-based hydrogen production systems/technologies
Power-to-X-system integration with the broader energy system
Forecasting studies, policy interventions, and techno-economics in the hydrogen energy value chain

Funding Information

The successful projects will be jointly funded by India and Denmark. The Danish counterpart will be funded by Innovation Fund Denmark (IFD), while the Indian counterpart will receive funding from DST. A total of 20 million DKK (Denmark) and 200 million INR (India) will be allocated to support 3-7 joint research and innovation projects, each lasting up to 3 years. Co-financing and participation of public and/or private enterprises are encouraged.

Eligibility Criteria

Scientists, Engineers, and Technologists working in universities, academic institutions, R&D institutions, and laboratories with adequate infrastructure to conduct R&D
PIs should have relevant experience, as demonstrated by previous prototype commercialization, development, or field knowledge
