About the Hydrogen Technology Collaboration Programme (Hydrogen TCP)
The Hydrogen TCP was established in 1977 under the IEA’s auspices to pursue collaborative hydrogen research and development and information exchange among its member countries. Through the creation and conduct of some forty Tasks, the Hydrogen TCP has facilitated and managed a comprehensive range of hydrogen R&D and analysis activities. The Hydrogen TCP was, prior to 2020, known as the Hydrogen Implementing Agreement (HIA).
The Hydrogen TCP envisions a hydrogen future of a clean sustainable energy supply that plays a key role in all sectors of the global economy with a 40+ year operating history, 26 Contracting Parties (24 countries + European Commission and UNIDO) and 7 Sponsor Members, and significant accomplishments to its credit, the Hydrogen TCP is the premier global resource for technical expertise in hydrogen R&D.
