Advent Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADN) (“Advent”), an innovation-driven leader in the fuel cell and hydrogen technology space, is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Advent Technologies S.A. has received an update from the Greek State regarding the implementation of the Green HiPo IPCEI Hy2Tech project (the “Green HiPo Project”).

In a letter dated November 13, 2023, signed by the Governor of the Just Transition Special Authority (“JTSA”), a division of the Greek State, Advent received confirmation of the Greek State’s continued commitment to the Green HiPo Project in line with Advent’s July 18, 2022, IPCEI EU ratification announcement, and an updated funding plan for the Green HiPo Project. The plan outlines a current budget of EUR 60 million, with 40% of that funding (EUR 24 million) as a grant from Greece’s Just Transition Fund to launch the Green HiPo Project.

Advent will submit a summary report to the Greek State setting forth its revised funding plan in light of the Greek State’s update concerning this initial grant. Once submitted, Advent expects that this initial grant will commence and the successful implementation of the Green HiPo Project will begin in earnest.

The Greek State’s initial funding will be part of the broader €5.4 billion development package authorized by the European Commission in July 2022. The Green HiPo Project is one of 41 projects sharing this funding as part of the broader group of projects under the IPCEI Hy2Tech.

Dr. Vasilis Gregoriou, Advent’s Chairman and CEO, commented: “We express our sincere appreciation to the Greek State for its continued commitment to a transition away from coal and towards a green energy future. The Advent team eagerly looks forward to the commencement of the Green HiPo Project, anticipating its significant role in advancing the Hy2Tech program and supporting Europe’s decarbonization and energy independence objectives.”
