France is taking a significant step towards reducing emissions in the transport sector by proposing ambitious renewable hydrogen quotas. The country's ecological transition ministry has introduced the IRICC mechanism, aiming to replace the existing system with specific quotas for renewable and low-carbon hydrogen use. These regulations, in line with the EU's renewable energy directive, set targets for fuel suppliers to meet across different transport sectors, with renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs) expected to reach 1.5% by 2030 and 2% by 2035. France's proposal, which exceeds EU requirements, also includes specific targets for synthetic fuels in aviation and maritime industries, leveraging its nuclear power capacity for production. Stakeholders have the opportunity to engage in the consultation process until June 10, providing feedback on the proposed penalties and quotas. The penalties for non-compliance could drive adherence to the targets, with hefty fines proposed for falling short of RFNBO quotas and larger greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. Overall, the consultation signifies France's commitment to advancing renewable hydrogen use in the transport sector and aligning with EU regulations for a greener future.
