THERESA

The THERESA project (Training for a Hydrogen Economy based Renewable Energy Society in the Anthropocene) is funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme. It will establish a doctoral research programme focused on the systematic legal analysis of hydrogen economy. PhD candidates will receive training in regulatory intervention on hydrogen, which is a complex and growing field of regulation characterised by a highly fragmented legal framework.

As an emerging economy, hydrogen presents risks, uncertainties and legal and academic challenges that need to be addressed. In this regard, THERESA has a triple focus: reduce sectoral fragmentation, promote the sustainable use of hydrogen and stimulate social engagement to the hydrogen economy. In order to achieve the objectives of the project, a methodology based on doctrinal and comparative analysis as well as empirical legal research will be used.
