TRIATHLON Kick-Off Meeting
January 26Great project starts with a great kick off!
TRIATHLON is a Horizon Europe project, which aims to develop disruptive approaches to design low-emission hydrogen-electric powertrains for megawatt class aircraft.
Funded by the European Union and CINEA – European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency, the project involves 8 partners:
• Materials Innovation Institute M2i (Project coordinator)
• Delft University of Technology (Technical coordinator)
• Technische Universitaet Dresden
• Ergon Research
• Sabanci Universitesi
• Cryomotive
• Lithoz
• AMIRES (Dissemination and exploitation activities)
The project’s Kick-Off meeting, held at Delft Technical University, Faculty of Aerospace Engineering, on 23-24 January 2024, was marked by insightful discussions on the project plan and expected impacts. Participants also had the privilege of exploring the university’s Materials Laboratory, the SAM XL Collaborative Research Centre, and the workspace of Aero Delft students crafting their aircraft.
TRIATHLON can also count on an impressive External Advisory Board, which will bring in their expertise along the project, featuring industry excellences such as Safran, H2Pulse, Avio Aero, and Ge Turkey, who provided invaluable insights into the project’s workplan during the Kick-Off Meeting.
Also, the Project Officer, Hugues Felix, joined the meeting and supported the consortium in setting priorities.
TRIATHLON is ready to take off!
