OIES Podcast – Challenges and Opportunities for Renewable Hydrogen in Europe
Description
In this latest OIES podcast James Henderson talks to Anne-Sophie Corbeau about the EU’s plans for renewable hydrogen, with a particular focus on the industrial sector. The discussion starts with a description of the current state of the hydrogen market in Europe before defining the nature of renewable hydrogen in particular and explaining why it is being given such a high priority by the EU. The targets set in the RED III directive are then discussed, before we move on to the actions being taken by individual member states to implement them and the implications of the divergences that are emerging between countries. We then look at particular sectors which are being affected by the new initiatives and look at the question of cost competitiveness and the need to incentivise demand in order to support the transition process. Finally, we examine the need for new infrastructure and assess whether enough is being done to ensure that the full hydrogen value chain is in place.
