A new European Commission communication proposes an EU hydrogen
strategy. Together with five recently announced national strategies
and a strong statement from the Pentalateral Forum, this represents
a new and positive framework for companies that are now developing
hydrogen projects as a key part of their energy operations.
The timing is significant. All the strategies were published
after the start of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis,
between March and July 2020.
Taken together, these strategic proposals give a strong signal
that hydrogen and decarbonization of gas are integral to
medium-term "green recovery" packages and are needed to meet
Europe's 2030 and mid-century net-zero carbon targets.
The strategies clearly describe governments' intentions for
hydrogen; they each propose specific project support measures, and
all stages of the hydrogen value chain are covered.
The strategies envisage a major role for low-carbon gas in the
energy system of the future. Moreover, they anticipate the
development of an intra-EU and internationally traded market for
hydrogen within 10 years.
