In India, BioEnergy Times reported that Spain is drafting a new law to support the development of renewable hydrogen, provide investors clearer rules and adjust energy markets to include green gases, according to Ecological Transition Minister Sara Aagesen.
Aagesen said the proposed law would bring European hydrogen rules into Spanish legislation, set up a national hydrogen system and create a regulated market aimed at increasing demand for renewable hydrogen and other green gases, reports Renewables Now.
She said the legislation is intended to give investors clearer guidance over the medium and long term and support the expansion of hydrogen infrastructure. Aagesen noted that Spain has already directed more than $3 billion towards programs supporting renewable hydrogen.
Spain’s first round under the European auction support model last year awarded 126.4 million euros to two green hydrogen projects, according to the report.
