🌱After adopting the framework for #renewablehydrogen in June 2023, the EU is now focusing on creating a similar framework for #LowCarbon Hydrogen (LCH). This legislation is crucial as it will complement existing renewable #hydrogen regulations, facilitate certification processes, and support infrastructure #investments. 📜The new Delegated Act (DA) is significant because LCH will play a key role in the #hydrogeneconomy, especially during the market ramp-up phase when renewable hydrogen is not yet available in sufficient quantities or at affordable prices. The DA will provide regulatory certainty needed for investments and will help phase out grey hydrogen and other fossil fuels. Get further insights in our latest #H2EQuarterly by reading the set of recommendations Hydrogen Europe has put together for the European Commission to take into consideration when drafting this document. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eV9fy39S

📄One of the priorities outlined in Belgium’s #PresidencyoftheCouncil programme back in January was “Advancing Sustainable Electricity Grid Infrastructure”. The final conclusions on the topic of #grids were adopted on the 30th of May. The adopted text, however, misses out on part of the solution by focusing only on electricity grids and leaving #hydrogen aside. 🌿It misses the opportunity for a more integrated energy #infrastructure in Europe, with a cross-sector approach allowing for accelerated development of the EU power grids, as well as providing a more cost-effective #cleantransition and greater #resilience in the #powersystem. 📢 The Hungarian presidency has announced its intention to continue tackling the issue of grids, and hydrogen’s role cannot be ignored.

🚨#CleanH2ProductionPathways: what are the most pressing #regulatory issues surrounding #cleanhydrogen? In order to secure a large-scale deployment of clean hydrogen, there are regulatory matters that must be tackled. In our analysis, we looked at the impact each of them can have on the different business cases. 👉 The deployment of clean #H2 technologies is held back by persisting regulatory barriers and the lack of a framework for calculating #GHGemissions.

#H2Highlights: TotalEnergies and Air Products have signed a 15-year agreement for the annual supply in Europe of 70,000 tons of #greenhydrogen starting in 2030. This first long-term deal follows TotalEnergies’ call for tenders for the supply of 500,000 tons per year of green #hydrogen to decarbonize TotalEnergies’ European refineries. This hydrogen will avoid around 700,000 tons of CO₂ each year. The contract awarded to Air Products is a first step towards achieving TotalEnergies' objective of reducing net greenhouse gas emissions from its operated oil and gas operations by 40% by 2030 compared to 2015 levels. https://lnkd.in/e-Trfr8y

💧🌿 RWE commissions 14 MW pilot #electrolyser: #greenhydrogen production commences in Lingen, Germany Robert Habeck, German Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Action and Stephan Weil, Lower Saxony’s Minister President, as well as Christian Meyer Lower Saxony’s Minister for the Environment, Energy and Climate Protection were present when RWE commissioned its pilot electrolyser plant. The facility on the site of RWE’s Emsland gas-fired power plant has a capacity of 14 MW. It can generate up to 270 kg of #greenhydrogen per hour using electricity from #renewable sources. Featuring two different electrolysis technologies, the pilot plant is to provide valuable insights for developing future industrial-scale #hydrogen facilities. The first large commercial electrolyser plant is already being built only metres away. As part of the GET H2 Nukleus project, a 100-MW electrolyser is to be commissioned there by 2025, with its capacity to be expanded to 300 MW by 2027.

Our latest #H2EQuarterly brings a perspective on U.S. #cleanhydrogen and its post-2025 outlook straight from Washington DC. The development of the clean #hydrogen industry in the US is facing two fundamental challenges: 💧 Blue hydrogen production development is slowed by difficulties associated with the technological and commercial maturity of #carboncapture and #storage for steam methane or autothermal reforming applications. 🍃#Greenhydrogen market near-term growth is challenged by high #electrolyser and capital costs, and other regulatory barriers. Read the article submitted by the Atlantic Council Global Energy Center for an in-depth analysis of the factors influencing the clean hydrogen market in the US, and get an insight on possible shifts in policy following the outcome of the November elections: https://lnkd.in/eV9fy39S

🎙 Our CEO Jorgo Chatzimarkakis was recently a guest of the Global Tales of Carbon Transition podcast where he shared his journey into #decarbonisation; he nuances why #hydrogen can play a role in a broader #energymix, and makes a strong call for what future forthcoming European #HydrogenStrategy in revised form could be. ☕ Coffee machine thoughts: How do we find alternative tools to contribute to the global decarbonisation plan, and what other (or younger) passionado of hydrogen can look out for. 🎧 You can listen to it here: ➡ Spotify: https://lnkd.in/g4-qYsVh ➡ Apple: https://lnkd.in/gKPgr2Zj Erik Rakhou | Joachim von Scheele | Oghosa Erhahon

🚦#CleanH2ProductionPathways: what are the main challenges of each production pathway? In our report, we analysed through a traffic light system the main challenges of each production pathway relating to #feedstock availability, #infrastructure, #TRL, scalability and #LCOH. Each indicator was assessed as presenting no significant challenge, a minor challenge or being a full challenge. Different pathways can be complementary as they encounter different challenges, check them all here in the chart below for more information ⬇ And click here to read our #CleanH2ProductionPathways report 👉 https://lnkd.in/dBqReVdv

Ørsted was one of the first movers, knowing about the challenges to integrate more #renewables into existing grids. Since they took #FID in December 2022, they experienced a lack of interest in long-term off-take at realistic prices and commercial scale. This matches with Hydrogen Europe’s observation about the risk for off-takers which is not clearly taken care of, e.g. due to insufficient regulatory incentives. Yet, without a predictable volume of off-take demand, it is not possible to create value through scale bringing costs down which is typical for large-scale developers like Ørsted. Whereas the FIDs taken over the last weeks especially in concern projects in the refinery sector, the Ørsted project in North Sweden is about the production of green fuels for the shipping industry. Currently, the targets set for the obligatory use of e-methanol in EU #maritime fleets are not stringent enough to create a sufficient degree of demand. In short: Everything but refinery projects are still way too risk exposed in order to endeavour on novel decarbonising technologies which so much have been discussed in the context of the Green Deal. Yet, rules are too complex, market making mechanisms are not underpinned by the relevant funding level and infrastructure is scheduled but not fast enough. The lessons learned from Ørsted fit very much into the analysis of the European Court of Auditors, which was welcomed by Hydrogen Europe as a manual for the upcoming European Commission to fix the shortcomings immediately during the first 100 days in office. The focus should be on timeline adaptation of three main areas: off-takers: Need speedy implementation at member state level and for EU secondary legislation. Incentives on EU level need to be maintained (or even strengthened) which is crucial to ensure effective market signals at this critical point in time for the green and clean fuel industry. funding schemes: EU needs to allocate the necessary funding to a handful of well-funded, streamlined, and targeted schemes that are simple to apply for and easy to evaluate. Early visibility and continuity on upcoming funding rounds should be made available to industry, so that project development timelines can be planned accordingly. infrastructure: #Hydrogen production at large-scale requires massive amounts of renewables input, and for gaseous hydrogen, access to pipeline infrastructure to transport the hydrogen to off-takers is crucial. Expectability of infrastructure construction and/or retrofitting needs to become clearer and more transparent. Hydrogen Europe will continue to work on improving the conditions. We are encouraged by the amount of FIDs taken only in the month of July adding up to 1 GW #electrolyser capacity to be built by 2030. But we also understand how many more projects could have been issued if the underlying legislation and funding would correspond to the needs of an Industrial #EUGreenDeal. Jorgo Chatzimarkakis
