In Belgium, Hydrogen Europe, together with 16 European associations committed to the development of the hydrogen market, sent a joint statement to the European Commission asking for a reality check for European Hydrogen policy in order to adjust the course at the EU level. The entities urged the European Commission to adopt a more pragmatic and technology neutral approach to enable cost-competitive hydrogen production. They also called for the adoption of a Delegated Regulation on Low Carbon Fuels in a pragmatic, technology neutral and fair way. They also urged authorities to ensure continued financial incentives are provided to lower the cost of hydrogen and to provide support for long-term planning security by revising the European Hydrogen Strategy. The entities also noted that the commission should also work to strengthen the EU’s role in creating a global market for hydrogen by developing the international leg of the EU Hydrogen Bank.
