By Joël Ruet & Antoine Goutaland – On 8th July 2020, the European Commission unveiled a 3-phases plan for Hydrogen. This is a landmark announcement for European industry with a common industrial project that could face up Asian leadership ambitions. The 3 phases consist in: (1) Enabling framework conditions for large 100 MW-range electrolyzers, and wind and solar plants dedicated to GW- scale RE H2 production before 2030, (2) Negotiations for ETS phase 4 to target renewable H2 becoming cost-competitive, to fossil fuel sector, (3) Renewable electricity production needs to massively increase as about a quarter of renewable electricity might be used for renewable hydrogen production by 2050.
