After years of record announcements, frantic policy development and the establishment of substantial public support mechanisms, the clean hydrogen sector is nearing an inflexion point. Many clean hydrogen projects have [...]
If estimates and targets are to be believed, roughly 6 to 10 million tonnes of hydrogen will be imported into the EU every year by the end of the decade, [...]
In the 2020 EU ‘Hydrogen Strategy’ the European Commission formally identified renewable hydrogen as a key tool to decarbonise the European energy system and other hard to abate sectors. Since [...]
Low-carbon hydrogen is expected to play a key role in the European energy transition. The production of hydrogen using electricity in an electrolysis process is a promising route. However, depending [...]

Over the last two years, the European Union (EU) has made clear its intention to incorporate a large portion of low carbon and renewable hydrogen in the energy mix, from [...]
Additionality is a key requirement for the renewables based electricity to be used by electrolysers to produce renewable hydrogen. Additionality could be defined as the requirement that renewables-based electricity used [...]
Methane pyrolysis is an endothermic process, in which methane at very high temperatures decomposes into gases, liquids, and solids. It is a well-established process that is now being optimised to [...]
In this Policy Brief, we will tackle two questions: i) what potential does hydrogen (H2) have for our 2030 and 2050 economics, and ii) which are the production technologies and [...]
Energy guarantees of origin (GOO) will be an essential instrument in the context of the Commission’s forthcoming legislative proposals on the regulatory framework for facilitating the emerging low and renewable [...]
In 2015, the Paris Climate Agreement and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) propelled the world into fast track mode towards achieving the sustainability goals. Three decades from now, the [...]
