Supported and subsidised by the European Union via the Clean Hydrogen Partnership the FrHyGe project brings together 17 partners and aims to test the underground storage of hydrogen in salt cavities on an industrial scale FrHyGe* is in fact the merger of two projects: GeoH2 in Manosque (France) and SaltHy in Harsefeld (Germany) the aim of the project is to test the underground hydrogen storage in salt cavities on an industrial scale The aim is to set up a demonstrator at the Manosque underground storage site (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence) and to study the replicability of this technology at another Storengy site in Germany The project will be carried out over 5 years Its first stage will involve converting a natural gas (or brine) salt cavity into a hydrogen storage system regulations) will be carried out for two years before launching construction The project will then focus on demonstrating the feasibility of injecting and withdrawing 100 tonnes of hydrogen over cycles ranging from 1 hour to 1 week in the converted cavities at the Manosque site the two cavities at Manosque will enable 6,000 tonnes of hydrogen to be stored a storage capacity of 5,200 tonnes is being planned Coordinated by Storengy *Full qualification in France of large-scale HYdrogen underground storage and replication from Germany to all European countries Want to keep up with the latest hydrogen-related news, updates and events around the world?

Former Timmins Rock captain Derek Seguin will be returning to Europe to continue his hockey career in 2023-24 but in the Netherlands rather than Germany who graduated from the Rock program following the 2020-21 campaign and spent 2021-22 with the GOJHL’s West Nipissing Lynx as an over-ager is coming off an extremely success season with TuS Harsefeld “I didn’t really know what to expect heading over there It ended up being a little bit of a weaker league than I had anticipated so I was able to put up some decent numbers “That was able to set me up to get into a better league this year.” Even though he suited up for just seven games Seguin was more than pleased with his season in Germany Catch up on all the latest news happening throughout Timmins and area with our newsletter you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc The next issue of The Daily Press will soon be in your inbox Interested in more newsletters? “I met a great group of guys, got to learn a bit about a different culture and they were very welcoming, so I had a great experience in the town,” he said. “I got to coach some kids, practice my German and overall it was a great experience.” It was Seguin’s first experience playing on a larger European ice surfaces but it didn’t take him long to get used to all that extra space. “I can’t say that if I was a defenceman I would agree with that, but as a forward there was a lot of extra ice and a lot of opportunities for some creativity in the O (offensive) zone and I got a lot of opportunities to work on my passing, my playmaking abilities, for sure.” Located south-west of Hamburg, Harsefeld is a city of 14,378. Other than language, Seguin found its inhabitants very similar to Canadians. “I think beer is a little bit more integrated into their culture but that’s about it,” he said. “Even though the city was small, we still managed to get about 700 to 800 fans a game, which is pretty remarkable. This season, Seguin will be playing for the UNIS Flyers, part of the BeNe League’s second division in the City of Heerenveen, with a population of 50,650. “It is about the size of Timmins, about 30 minutes out from Amsterdam (the capital of The Netherlands),” he said. “It is the second team in the city, so there is a league up, which is one of the reasons I took this opportunity, for the possibility of moving up halfway through the season, being called up a little bit on a loan contract.” To get ready for training camp with the Flyers, Seguin spent a great deal of his summer working out and then he took to the ice with his former NOJHL team, for the Rock’s two-week main camp to get in a little ice time. “A lot of the stuff was just off-ice, since we don’t have the ice here in the summer,” he said. “I have been doing a lot of mobility and strength work, rehabbing some nagging injuries I picked up along the way in Junior ‘A’ that I hadn’t taken the time to take care of. “Now that I am older, I am only 23, but these injuries are starting the catch up. So, I spent a lot of time rehabbing and getting back to the basics. “Then, with these boys, I was able to get back on the ice and compete.” And their former captain was pleased with the skill level he saw on the ice during the team’s two-week main camp that wrapped up on Aug. 25. “I hadn’t had the chance to watch them other than on HockeyTV (now FLOHOCKEY), but it isn’t the same,” he said. “They showed really well for a pre-season camp.” Seguin is scheduled to arrive in Heerenveen on Sept. 4 to join his new teammates. “Then, on Sept. 5, we start practice, so I will have to get over any jetlag quickly, but I am sure they will be a little bit lenient, knowing the time change and all that,” he said. “We get right into it (training camp) and then our season starts later in the month. “It will be kind of similar to this camp here. We got two weeks of on- and off-ice training, and then we will actually be playing some exhibition games in Germany and a few in Belgium, as well. “So, there will be a little bit of travelling and some team bonding and stuff.” After a year of sharpening his skills speaking German, Seguin will now have to add Dutch to his vocabulary, as well, although he noted there are some similarities between the two languages. “I was looking at their Facebook and Instagram posts and I was kind of able to decipher a little bit,” he said. “And, oddly enough, it is similar enough to English, the wording, the structure of their phrases is different, but if you are an English speaker it is easy enough to pick up and understand, not so much speak because they have a very aggressive way of speaking. “I never picked up on the (German) accent, but at least I was able to understand it.” Seguin spent four seasons in a Rock uniform — breaking into the NOJHL in 2017-18 and graduating following the 2020-21 campaign. During that time, he appeared in 160 regular-season games, scored 95 goals and added 87 assists, while spending 153 minutes in the penalty box. He also appeared in 22 playoff games, scored 10 goals and added 17 assists, while spending 28 minutes in the penalty box. transmission or republication strictly prohibited This website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.

And the main aim of our journey was our city Mykolaiv and sport center “Istoky” Scouts of Mykolaiv region prepared an interesting exciting and cognitive program of staying in "Istoky" A lot of activities and workshops were organized by them a lot of the customs and traditions of the Ukrainian people were presented and a lot of games were played It's even hard to assess how much experience and new skills each of us has got We thank all the scouts that participated in this unforgettable project.
