The "Energy Sustainability at the SUDOE region: PEMFC-SUDOE" project responds to the challenge of ensuringsustainable energy supply at the SUDOE region through the development of PEMFC technology with theintegration of renewable sources of H2. Four PEMFC innovative prototypes for use in transport (Automobiles andbicycles), stationary sources (Stack of> 250W power supply of buildings or public lighting) and portable (Compactsystem with a capacity of > 400WH and a minimum of 50W for use in computers, mobile phones etc.) constitutethe end products that integrate the results of scientific-technical project activities.

The project will give a big boost for institutional relations in the SUDOE area between research institutions,knowledge generators, and the business sector (responsible for facilitating transfer and commercialization), andgovernments and social partners (responsible for integrating scientific advances in the policies and strategic plansinvolving citizens through strategic dissemination plans).This will only be possible from work coordinated by a highly qualified and balanced consortium (3 universities, 2research centres, 4 SMEs and 8 associate partners including government, clusters, technology platforms,partnerships for regional development and end users) with representation throughout the SUDOE region.

The creation of a Transnational network of excellence R & D + I in the field of fuel cells and energy of H2 is the bestguarantee of success and significance of the results after the completion of the project.
