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🏭👣 Image
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 Image

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

ec.europa.eu/commission/pre…
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
Hydrogen qualified as a #rfnbo can already count towards the European renewables targets in transport, as well as the proposed #rfnbo targets for industry and transport discussed as part of the Fit-for-55 package 2/23

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.👇
#RenewableHydrogen.
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.
