How does shaping hydrogen and CO2 infrastructure sustain industry decarbonisation? Meet Vincent FLON from Fluxys to find out

H2 & CO2 pipeline backbones are key to supporting the sustainable decarbonisation of industry and the further development of industrial activities.
Pipeline infrastructure allows for an efficient and cost-effective transmission of the gases between production/emission and demand/usage zones. Enabling running activities to be kept in place and allowing for the further development of industrial plants in the most appropriate locations for each industrial activity, the pipeline is the perfect bridge for conveying the molecules and achieving optimal industrial symbiosis.
Fluxys is ready to build the gas network of the future. Its H2 & CO2 transmission infrastructure, with transparent and non-discriminatory access conditions, and cost-efficient repurposing opportunities, will unlock new solutions for the industry in its efforts to achieve sustainable recovery and growth. Fluxys intends to roll-out the necessary infrastructure from 2024, through close collaboration with the industry. The development will start with local pipeline networks in different clusters to support the development of circular re-use of carbon (CCU projects) and to enhance other industrial synergies.

Vincent FLON holds a Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering, with specialisation in Energy, from the Catholic University of Louvain. During his Masters, he also studied at the Delft University of Technology.
He started his career at Fluxys in 2016 as Project Manager for the development and construction of one of the largest LNG tanks in Europe and gas compression facilities in Zeebrugge.
Since January 2020, he has been working as Innovation Projects Developer at Fluxys and is currently in charge of developing hydrogen and CO2 transmission and conversion projects.
One of his leitmotifs is "turn challenges into mutual opportunities".

Each Master Session will take up to 2 hours from 9.30AM till noon and will be themed according to the following specific subjects:
Session #1:  CCU – Mineralisation – Hydrogen Programme: 20 May
Session #2: Energy storage and batteries recycling Programme: 27 May 2021

The detailed programme and list of speakers are available here.
