EEX contributed to the publication of a policy paper, together with H2Global and the universities OTH Regensburg and FAU Nürnberg, titled „Instruments for the market ramp-up of renewable hydrogen and its derivatives and the role of H2Global“. H2Global is a competition-based instrument to promote a timely and effective ramp-up of the renewable hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives market towards an industrial scale. To achieve this, H2Global sets up a physical intermediary (the Hydrogen Intermediary Company) between the supply side and the demand side. The paper sheds light on the tremendous challenges ahead when it comes to reaching the targets for the market ramp-up of renewable hydrogen and presents the authors’ view of how we can come closer to achieving them.
