The award was presented by Luis Gállego, Director of ERCROS Sabiñánigo, to Cristian Barón Vidán for his outstanding Bachelor’s Thesis titled “Feasibility Study of the Integration of Power-to-Gas Technology in the Glass Industry”.
The research was co-supervised by Jorge Perpiñán Hinarejos and Begoña Peña Pellicer, and funded through a grant from the INVESTIGO program, coordinated by Pilar Lisbona. The project explores innovative decarbonization strategies for energy-intensive industries, focusing on the integration of Power-to-Gas technology to produce renewable hydrogen and synthetic methane. The study demonstrates the potential of this approach to significantly reduce CO₂ emissions in the glass manufacturing sector.
