About Global Hydrogen Network of Networks (NoN): Research and Education Accelerated by Connections in Clean Hydrogen (REACH2)
We are a network of networks and research institutions whose goals are to promote the research and education of hydrogen based clean energy. In addition, with various institutions we are seeking to:
- collaborate
- innovate
- research
- create
- share knowledge
As a result of the challenges of the 21st century and lessons from our past, we are creating a coalition of partners that will help accelerate and converge innovation in clean hydrogen (H2) technology such as fuel cells. We plan to do this through facilitating the development of next generation of devices, an intellectually renowned workforce and create global trends in clean energy for today and most importantly tomorrow.
Network Goals

Our goals are to provide innovative ideas for clean energy, to invite discussion on a global scale to secure a better sustainable energy future where everyone has has access.
World Class Research

At the REACH2, our goals are to help provide top tier and top notch research with peer academic institutions and internationally renowned industry partners.
Our Global Impact

The global challenges for sustainable and clean energy is impacting everyone on a global scale. As a result, we want to ensure that our research goes beyond borders.
