They argue that overly rigid rules on additionality, spatial and temporal correlation are stalling projects, causing cancellations, and putting Europe at risk of missing its hydrogen deployment targets while global competitors surge ahead. EU rules for renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO) require electrolyser operators, from 2028, to use new renewable assets in the same [...]

Advocating natural gas at the outset of a green hydrogen and renewables-oriented two-day summit may have seemed an unlikely topic to greet many of the 2,000 delegates in the Palais de Congress auditorium. But Dr. Leila Benali’s comments signalled a focus on pragmatism in maintaining hydrogen’s momentum amid challenging market conditions. “We cannot talk seriously [...]

H2 View understands that the Haru Oni e-fuels facility in Chile’s Magallanes region is the world’s first operating e-fuels plant. It combines a Silyzer 200 electrolyser, a Siemens Gamesa 3.4MW wind turbine powering the electrolysis process, and Methanol-to-Gasoline technology. The RFNBO certificate was issued by the German body ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) and [...]

Developers bidding for European Hydrogen Bank (EHB) support will face tougher requirements in the upcoming third auction, as the Commission moves to curb project dropouts. After projects selected for subsidies in the first two EHB auctions dropped out, Alexandre Paquot, Director of Innovation for Clean Growth and Low Carbon Economy – DG CLIMA, European Commission, [...]

The company reported over 370 hydrogen deliveries in France, Germany and Sweden – double the number from H1 2024, representing 22MW of installed capacity across its sites. Backed by a €65m ($70m) cash position and a 9.3 GW project pipeline, Lhyfe expects its full-year 2025 revenue to double in comparison to €10m ($10.8m) in 2024. [...]

Electric Hydrogen’s first 100MW electrolyser plant is set to begin producing hydrogen at Infinium’s large-scale e-fuels plant in Texas in December 2025. In a showcase session at European Hydrogen Week, Electric Hydrogen’s Senior Vice-President, Global Commercial, Jason Mortimer, said the plant was nearing mechanical completion ahead of passivation next month. The installation at Infinium’s Project [...]

As the Programme Management Office (PMO) partner, the multinational infrastructure firm will ensure Project Union runs smoothly at a programme level for National Gas, keeping it on budget, on schedule, and properly managed. “Aecom will deliver advisory capability and resourcing support to help build a high-performing PMO function for delivery of the East Coast section,” [...]

Allowing flexible grid rules could reduce green hydrogen production costs by 30% to €4/kg ($4.70) in Spain, according to Moeve’s Hydrogen Director. Speaking at European Hydrogen Week, Joaquín Rodriguez showed the Spanish oil and gas firm’s proposal to minimise green hydrogen production costs, without major changes to RFNBO rules. He said the additionality and temporal [...]

Under its agreement with developer ACWA Power, Kent will provide technical oversight and assurance for the project, which is scheduled to have its first phase come online in 2030. Kent is expected to work alongside the Técnicas Reunidas–Sinopec joint venture (JV). The JV is carrying out a 10-month study for the front-end engineering and design [...]

Alongside the Road Haulage Association (RHA) and the Construction Plant-hire Association (CPA), the letter has urged ministers to set demand targets and fund early infrastructure to close the cost gap with diesel fuel. Currently, the trade bodies underline that hydrogen’s role in transport policy is limited. Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) qualify as zero-emission under [...]
