Darina Blagoeva is the team leader for the electrolyser and fuel cell group at the JRC's Petten site, within Directorate C – Energy, Mobility and Climate of the European Commission. She holds a PhD and brings more than two decades of experience in physics and materials science, acquired across academia, research institutions and consultancy. Over the past twelve years at the European Commission she has focused on the criticality of raw material supplies, particularly in relation to low carbon energy and transport technologies, with a strong emphasis on hydrogen during the last six years. Currently, she leads the electrolyser activities in Petten, including experimental pre-normative research on electrolyser and fuel cell systems that supports the Clean Hydrogen Undertaking and the ongoing standardisation efforts in Europe.
