1/ Welcome to the bi-weekly #CleanTechEU thread!🧵👇
This week is a dive into the recently adopted #hydrogen delegated act on #additionality, what we asked for, why, and what made it to the final text & what got lost in compromises.🔎

2/ 1st things 1st: making #RenewableHydrogen means needing #RenewableElectricity ⚡️
When connecting an electrolyser to most of #EU’s electricity grids, the #H2 produced will have a very high #CarbonFootprint🏭👣

3/ But, this can be fixed. Here are a few rules that can ensure that #hydrogen produced on the grid has a minimal climate impact:
➕additionality
⌛️temporal matching
🗺️geographic correlation

The criteria for the production of #renewablehydrogen have been adopted. You can find the press release here:

The delegated acts define the criteria and methodology to determine whether gaseous hydrogen or hydrogen-based fuels can be classified as a “renewable fuels of non-biological origin” #rfnbo 1/21
1/9 Dedicating #RenewableElectricity to #Hydrogen cannot free the EU from #RussianGas.⚠️ What can, is using renewable electricity efficiently.

2/9 How we use each TWh of electricity has a huge impact on whether we break free⛓️ from #RussianGas.
Using it in #HeatPumps displaces three times more fossil gas than using it to produce.👇

3/9 #REPowerEU foresees the total installed wind 🌬️& PV ☀️capacity to increase from today’s 360 GW to almost 1000 GW + 80 GW of renewables earmarked for #H2.
This will produce over 1000 TWh of electricity⚡️ per year. That’s the 🇫🇷 & 🇩🇪 demand combined.
