The glass industry will have to be completely decarbonized in the next 30 years. The lifetime of a glass furnace is about. 12-15 years. So it is urgent to start innovating because the year 2050 is only 2 furnaces away. H2GLASS aims to create the technology stack that glass manufacturers need to (a) realize 100% H2 combustion in their production facilities, (b) ensure the required product quality, and (c) manage this safely. H2GLASS will address the challenges related to NOx emissions and high flame propagation speed, process efficiency, and supply of H2 for on-site demonstrations. Digital Twin techniques will be critical for risk-based predictive maintenance, optimized production control, and combustion system control. Hydrogen will be supplied by a portable electrolyser co-funded by the industrial demonstrators, and the oxygen produced will be reused in the process. The H2GLASS technologies and design solutions will be validated up to TRL 7 on 5 industrial demonstrators from 3 segments (container glass, flat glass and glass fibre), which together represent 98% of the current glass production in the EU. The expertise of partners such as Steklarna Hrastnik, PTML Pilkington, Owens Corning and Stara Glass representing the State Of The Art (SOTA) in the use of H2 in the glass process will be an asset for the H2GLASS Consortium. A demonstrator for the aluminum industry (HYDRO) will prove the transferability of the basic solutions and underlying models to energy-intensive industries that have similarities with the glass manufacturing process, thus strengthening the impact of the project. In EU the Glass and Aluminium industries employ >400.000 people in Europe, generate > 3.5B€ and emit ca.21.5 Mt CO2e. The innovations generated by H2GLASS will potentially create 10.000 new jobs and unlock 1 - 5B€ revenues for glass technology deployment, >17B investments and 200.000 new jobs for green H2, and cut emissions by ca.80%.

玻璃行业必须在未来 30 年内实现完全脱碳，玻璃熔炉的使用寿命约为 12-15 年，因此距离 2050 年只剩下 2 个熔炉的时间了。玻璃制造商需要 (a) 在其生产设施中实现 100% H2 燃烧，(b) 确保所需的产品质量，以及 (c) 安全管理 H2GLASS 所需的技术堆栈将解决这一问题。与氮氧化物排放和高火焰传播速度、过程效率以及现场演示的氢气供应相关的挑战对于基于风险的预测维护、优化生产控制和燃烧系统控制至关重要。 H2GLASS 技术和设计解决方案将在来自 3 个领域的 5 个工业演示机上进行高达 TRL 7 的验证。 （容器玻璃、平板玻璃和玻璃纤维），合计占欧盟当前玻璃产量的 98%。 ）在玻璃工艺中使用氢气将成为 H2GLASS 联盟的一项资产。铝工业演示器 (HYDRO) 将证明基本解决方案和底层的可转移性。与玻璃制造工艺相似的能源密集型产业模型，从而加强了该项目的影响。在欧盟，玻璃和铝工业在欧洲雇佣了超过 400,000 名员工，产生超过 3.5B 欧元，排放约 21.5 吨二氧化碳当量。 H2GLASS 产生的创新将有可能创造 10,000 个新就业岗位，并为玻璃技术部署、>17B 投资和绿色氢能创造 20 万个新就业岗位，排放量减少约 80%。
