CONSORTIUM
The HyPactor project brings together partners with complementary expertise: experts in
testing processes for compressed gaseous hydrogen (CGH2) storage in full composite
vessels (CEA, WRUT), a gas company operating CGH2 technologies (AIR LIQUIDE),
a pressure vessel supplier (HEXAGON), experts in characterisation, particularly nondestructive testing (ISA, WRUT, CEA) and experts in modelling (NTNU), leading actors
in international RCS development (HEXAGON, AIR LIQUIDE, IS, CEA), and an expert in
European R&D collaborative project management (ALMA CG).
