He holds a 5-year diploma and a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA). Both of his thesis topics are related to hydrogen technologies and hybrid RES-hydrogen power systems. Currently, he acts as external Research Collaborator at the National Center for Scientific Research DEMOKRITOS (NCSRD) and member of its Integrated Hydrogen Laboratory (H2Lab). Experienced with strong technical and engineering background in RES and Hydrogen Technologies integration to hybrid power systems including among others modelling, simulations, optimization and techno-economic analysis of such systems. Hands-on experience has been also gained on electrolysis, hydrogen compression, hydrogen storage and fuel cell units through the years of work with on-site performance evaluation of such systems and participation in national (Greece, Cyprus) and international research projects. He has over 25 publications related to RES, hydrogen and energy storage. Recent activities include participation in the TRIĒRĒS project (Towards the development of a hydRogen valley demonstratIng applications in an intEgRated EcoSystem in Greece). Additionally, his work encompasses the study for the transformation of the Hellenic Gas TSO’s (DESFA) natural gas grid into “Hydrogen ready”, alongside the development, construction, optimization, and operation of a thermal, metal hydride-based, hydrogen compressor applicable to Hydrogen Refueling Stations (HRS). Furthermore, he was a member of the working group preparing the “Techno-economic study for hydrogen use in ports” for the Greek Regulatory Authority for Energy, Waste & Water (RAEWW).
Development of an Autonomous RES-driven Hydrogen Refueling Station (HRS) The H2TRANS project is developing the first hydrogen fuel refueling station in Greece. The final facility will consist of four basic elements:
SHIPFC's main mission is to prove and show the case for large-scale zero-emission shipping through developing, piloting and replicating a modular 2MW fuel cell technology using ammonia as fuel.
HYSHIP focuses on building and scaling (to 20MW) fuel cell approaches that lower operational cost (capex) and design cost of LH2 PEM operations through the development and validation of a 2MW fuel cell liquid hydrogen ship, used in a hydrogen bunkering and supply chain, along with developing busines...
ATLAS-MHC focused on the development and evaluation of hydrogen compressors for electricity storage through upscaling a laboratory prototype metal-hydride compressor (MHC) and evaluating the pilot scale, precompetitive MHC implemented in a complete renewable energy storage system aiming to bring it ...
The main objective of the TRIĒRĒS project is the creation of a “Small Scale Hydrogen Valley”, with geographical reference to the Motor Oil Refinery of Ag. Theodoroi in Corinth. By linking the green hydrogen production unit that the MOH is developing there within the EPHYRA project, with businesses, ...
Preparation of a comprehensive study for the conversion of the natural gas network (taking all parameters into account) so that it is ready to receive hydrogen. The injection of hydrogen into natural gas networks has been widely adopted both in Europe and worldwide in order to achieve the following ...
