To connect potential suppliers with buyers of hydrogen and its derivatives in the EU, the Commission is, today, launching the first call for interest under the Hydrogen Mechanism.
Hydrogen and its derivatives can play an important role for sectors that are hard to decarbonise and contribute to the EU reaching climate neutrality by 2050. The mechanism covers renewable or low-carbon hydrogen and derivatives such as ammonia, methanol, certain aviation fuels (eSAF) and eMethane.
Commissioner for Energy and Housing, Dan Jørgensen said:
“Today’s call marks a new chapter in the EU’s support to the European industry and its competitive decarbonisation through renewable and low-carbon hydrogen.
By connecting buyers and sellers, this hydrogen mechanism will help us create a cleaner and competitive future for our energy and our economy.”
