OIES – Challenges and Opportunities Posed by the EU’s 42 Percent Renewable Hydrogen Target by 2030

The main theme of the report concerns the European Union's plans to increase the share of renewable hydrogen in industrial use to 42% by 2030.

Key findings include a discussion of the challenges and opportunities associated with achieving this goal, including the need to stimulate demand for renewable hydrogen in industrial and transport sectors. It is noted that the RED III directive sets sectoral targets for renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs), including renewable hydrogen, for the first time.
