Detailed rules will define what renewable hydrogen is in the EU
On Monday, February 13, the European Commission proposed detailed rules defining renewable hydrogen. Two delegated acts required under the Renewable Energy Directive were adopted for this purpose.
Will geothermal energy be used to produce green hydrogen?
So far, there has been little talk in the industry about using geothermal energy to produce hydrogen. Due to the technical advancement of the installations and lower costs, projects have focused primarily on solar and wind energy. Nonetheless, one of the first consortiums to produce hydrogen from geothermal was announced last year.
The updated RED II increases the share of renewables in the EU energy mix to 45% by 2030.
On July 13, the European Parliament’s Committee on Industry, Research, and Energy (ITRE) presented a proposal to update the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive, increasing their share of member states’ energy mixes by another 5% over the Fit for 55 climate package proposed just a year ago.
Objective 4: Production of hydrogen in new installations
One might assume that Poland has long been ahead of most countries in the ongoing European race for hydrogen. For years, it has been among the leaders in its production, not only in Europe but also in the world, producing approximately 1 million tonnes of hydrogen per year. Nothing could be further from the truth.
SES Hydrogen becomes a member of the Polish-Spanish Chamber of Commerce
The cooperation aims to establish relations and business contacts on the promising hydrogen and renewable energy market in Spain.
Objective 1. Implement hydrogen technologies in the energy industry. Is hydrogen the answer to the energy crisis?
The Polish energy sector requires transformation. Experts have been proving for a long time that the outdated thermal energy sector no longer meets climate requirements and will soon start generating significant losses, also in economic terms. An immediate modernization of current plants is necessary, and as the Polish Hydrogen Strategy shows, hydrogen is one of the most important tools for its implementation.
