**🌱 HYDROGEN BANK: CONSULTATION ON THE SECOND AUCTION** The European Commission is launching a consultation with stakeholders on the conditions for the upcoming auction of the Hydrogen Bank. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between the cost of hydrogen production and the price consumers are willing to pay. Here are the key points of this consultation: - Producers will be able to apply for a fixed premium per kilogram of hydrogen produced. - The premium ceiling is set at €3.50/kg for this auction, down from €4.50/kg previously. - The subsidy will be granted for a maximum period of ten years. - The total budget for this auction could reach approximately €2.2 billion. - Part of the budget will be reserved for synthetic fuels in the maritime sector. Stakeholders are invited to provide feedback on the proposed conditions by June 6. Additionally, an event with these stakeholders is organized by the Commission on June 12 (registration until May 24). 🔗 [Auction Conditions](https://lnkd.in/eqvKVrSp) 🔗 [Consultation Registration](https://lnkd.in/eqvKVrSp) #GreenHydrogen #EnergyTransition #EU #Consultation #Sustainability
