As we approach 2030, the European Commission must act decisively to meet #climategoals, with clean and sustainable #hydrogen playing a central role. In an OpEd for Euractiv, our CEO Jorgo Chatzimarkakis highlights the importance of hydrogen in decarbonising #hardtoabate sectors, #transport, and #energystorage. What still needs to be done? 🚫Remove regulatory barriers Eliminate hurdles in the delegated act for #renewablehydrogen to accelerate sector scaling. ⏳Simplify processes early A streamlined regulatory approach in the first 100 days of the new Commission will be transformative for the sector. 💶Increase financial support Invest in early-stage deployment, supporting first movers and critical #infrastructure for transportation, distribution, and storage. 🌍Harmonise global standards Align EU definitions of #cleanhydrogen with international frameworks to promote cross-border #trade and #investment. 🤝Focus on international cooperation Strengthen global partnerships to ensure Europe remains a leader in clean hydrogen #innovation and #technology. By taking bold action, we can accelerate Europe’s transition to a #sustainable, #competitive energy future. https://lnkd.in/ebSd7EYG

As 2024 comes to a close, #H2Europe would like to wish everyone a merry Christmas, a joyous holiday season, and a happy new year! 🎄🎆   Let us celebrate not just the joy of the season but also the promise of a cleaner and greener tomorrow. The work is far from over, but we can be confident in the continued commitment of our members and partners to clearing the way for us to advance to net zero, with #cleanhydrogen as an enabler.   We look forward to continuing our work together in 2025! 🤝

#H2Highlights - In September 2024 the BMW Group and the Toyota Motor Corporation joined forces to develop a new generation of #fuelcell powertrain technology. Sharing a vision to advance the #hydrogeneconomy, the two companies have extended their collaboration to drive this locally #zeroemission innovation forward. 🤝💧 The pathway to unlocking the full potential of #hydrogenmobility includes its use in commercial vehicles and the establishment of a refuelling infrastructure for all mobility applications, including #hydrogen-powered passenger vehicles. Recognising the complementary nature of these technologies, the BMW Group and the Toyota Motor Corporation are supporting the expansion of both hydrogen refuelling and battery electric vehicle charging infrastructure. By fostering demand and working with partners to scale up #lowcarbon hydrogen production, distribution, and refuelling facilities, BMW and Toyota aim to encourage a sustainable #hydrogensupply chain. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dWWrjM8N

bp has taken the final investment decision (#FID) to build a 100MW #greenhydrogen plant at its #refinery in Lingen Germany. Supported by funding from the Important Projects of Common European Interest (#IPCEI) programme, the plant could produce up to 11,000 tonnes of green hydrogen per year, for use in bp’s own refineries and other industrial customers in the region. The project will also be connected to Germany’s planned 9,040km #hydrogen core network. 📷 bp 👉https://lnkd.in/e3iyq8Pb
