HI2 Valley
The HI2 Valley (Hydrogen Industry Inland Valley) is Europe's first hydrogen valley focused on industrial applications in Styria, Upper Austria, and Carinthia. With 48 national and international partners 588 million euros will be invested in the HI2 Valley by 2030 to drive CO2 reduction, implement real projects, and play a central role in Europe’s hydrogen system.
The comprehensive project plans to achieve national and European climate targets, energy independence, and a transition to clean energy. The HI2 Valley will create about 1,000 jobs and contribute significantly to the decarbonization of energy-intensive industries.
As one of the largest energy storage operators in Europe, RAG Austria is a pioneer in hydrogen production, storage and utilization and thus part of the HI2 Valley.
