JRC

The Joint Research Centre (JRC) is the science and knowledge service of the European Commission. It provides independent, evidence-based science and knowledge, supporting EU policies to positively impact society. JRC scientists work closely with other Commission departments, EU institutions and agencies, as well as with scientific partners and policy organisations in Europe and internationally. They offer scientific expertise and competencies from a wide range of scientific disciplines in support of almost all EU policy areas. The Battery and Hydrogen Technologies Unit is based in Petten (The Netherlands). It is part of the Directorate for Energy, Transport and Climate, supporting EU policies in the field of sustainable, safe, secure and efficient energy production, distribution and use. Fostering sustainable and efficient mobility in Europe and providing scientific and technical analyses in support to integrated air quality, climate and related policies are also in the area of activities.
