EU’s Clean Industrial Deal: What’s in it for Hydrogen?

The EU Commission rolled out the Clean Industrial Deal, a major push to keep European industries competitive while staying on track with climate goals. So, what does this mean for hydrogen?

There are 4 key milestones to watch:

  • – Q1 2025: Delegated Act on Low-Carbon Hydrogen
  • – Q2 2025: Launch of the pilot Hydrogen Mechanism
  • – Q3 2025: 3rd European Hydrogen Bank
  • – By end of 2025: Review of RFNBO rules

Also, by the end of this year, the Industrial Decarbonisation Accelerator Act will introduce voluntary labeling of low-carbon products, kicking off with steel in 2025.

These steps reinforce the EU’s commitment to hydrogen while reshaping the industrial landscape. What needs to follow now is the swift implementation of new measures while avoiding clashes with existing legal frameworks, ensuring visibility and confidence for market players and investors.

Exciting time to watch how the European hydrogen and industrial landscape unfolds!
