The European Commission has approved a €400 million Spanish state aid program to support the growth of renewable hydrogen production. This scheme, facilitated through the EU Hydrogen Bank's auction mechanism, aims to enhance electrolyzer capacity by up to 345 MW and target an annual production of 221,000 tons of renewable hydrogen in Spain. In parallel, collaborations and agreements are being forged to drive renewable hydrogen initiatives across Europe. The Iberian Gas Market has partnered with Pexapark to introduce the first renewable hydrogen price index, Mibgas Ibhyx, while Axpo, Isab, and Enego are joining forces to develop the Hynego project in Sicily, starting with a 100 MW electrolyzer and a sizable investment that could scale to 300 MW. Moreover, HDF Energy, in cooperation with Indonesian entities, is embarking on a study to decarbonize Indonesia's maritime sector using domestically produced green hydrogen. Meanwhile, both France and the UK are adjusting their national hydrogen strategies to align with evolving industry landscapes. France has revised its electrolyzer capacity targets for 2030 and 2035, acknowledging the slow deployment of hydrogen solutions amidst global competition and alternative decarbonization technologies. On the other hand, the UK government has advanced 27 hydrogen projects in its second Hydrogen Allocation Round, envisioning significant private investments by 2029 to establish the UK as a leader in clean energy.
