The replication studies explore how the H2SCORE concept can be adapted and transferred to different local energy systems beyond the demonstration site in Quarona (Italy).
Evaluate the technical, economic, environmental, and social feasibility of hydrogen‑based long‑duration storage across diverse community settings.
Examine renewable mixes, demand profiles, and climatic constraints to understand how local factors shape system design and operation.
Assess how hydrogen can enhance flexibility, resilience, and security of supply, especially in constrained, off‑grid, or weak‑grid environments.
Define suitable configurations and sizing strategies for electrolysers, hydrogen storage solutions, and fuel cells across different applications.
Provide scenario modelling, techno‑economic assessments, and qualitative insights to guide informed decision‑making for local stakeholders.
Assess the feasibility of hydrogen in northern remote communities by examining off‑grid conditions, harsh climate challenges, and logistical constraints to reduce fossil‑fuel reliance and improve long‑term energy autonomy.
