EU’s hydrogen economy struggles to pick up pace https://www.euractiv.com/section/energy-environment/news/eus-hydrogen-economy-struggles-to-pick-up-pace/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #additionality #hydrogen #hydrogenbank #hydrogeneconomy

The EU is putting in place a regulatory framework to support our #hydrogenmarket. @IRENA’s recent report on #smartelectrification highlights many of our policies to support #additionality, hydrogen certification & interaction between #electricitymarketdesign & #renewablehydrogen.

RT @renewableH2EU: With +60 signatories, we call on @europarl_en
@EUCouncil & Member States to support the adoption of the #DelegatedAct on #Additionality

Industry needs it to kickstart the #RenewableHydrogen market in 🇪🇺. We need it now. Later will be too late.

@JohanEmpa I know you are a keen advocate of #carbonremoval, but I beg you walk the fine line between doing your best with what is available (aka #greenserver, #treeplanting) and promoting the belief that buying #greencredits or paying into #carbonoffsets will actually REMOVE carbon from the atmosphere. It wont'. #Additionality is barely alive, in fact I'd argue it's long dead. #reduceemissions first, aka #stopflying.

Would less coal be burnt in Germany if excavations in #Luetzerath stopped or would the coal just quietly be imported from elsewhere? I wonder what would happen if protests were successful.

Today in #Lützerath hundreds of people came to oppose the coal mining industry.

The crowd managed to get a bagger to stop.

Thousands more people will join in the coming days ✊
