Jorgo Chatzimarkakis, CEO of Hydrogen Europe, expressed gratitude after receiving a gold medal for promoting hydrogen from Ulco Vermeulen, representing the Dutch consortium Mission H2, during an event in the Netherlands.
The Dutch National Olympic Committee (NOC*NSF) has extended its collaboration with Mission H2 until Paris 2024. This partnership aims to further boost the hydrogen movement in the Netherlands, supporting the country’s energy transition.
“A big thanks..What an honor to receive the gold medal for the promotion of hydrogen out of the hands of Ulco Vermeulen representing the Dutch consortium Mission H2 (Missie H2)”
Under the campaign banner “Netherlands Hydrogen Land 2030,” Mission H2 and TeamNL hydrogen are working to accelerate the adoption of hydrogen as a clean fuel. Ulco Vermeulen of Gasunie and initiator of Mission H2 stated, “Since the start of Mission H2 in 2019, a lot has happened in the field of hydrogen. Our goal is to initiate a broad movement for the energy transition. Now we have to keep going.”
Mission H2 is committed to transitioning to hydrogen, which can be produced from various domestic resources, including natural gas, nuclear power, biomass, and renewable power such as solar and wind. The partnership with NOC*NSF aims to make sports more energy-efficient and enable TeamNL athletes to compete sustainably.
Chatzimarkakis expressed his honor and encouragement to continue working towards a cleaner world based on hydrogen. He looks forward to numerous hydrogen applications at the Olympic Games in Paris.
