The European Commission has introduced the Hydrogen Mechanism under the EU Energy and Raw Materials Platform to boost the competitiveness of Europe's industry. This strategy is part of a broader initiative to ensure a secure energy supply, diversification, and decarbonisation. The mechanism aims to facilitate the market development of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen, along with its derivatives like ammonia, methanol, and electro-sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF). By empowering market participants through matching and aggregating demand and supply, the mechanism will support infrastructure development needs and provide access to financial information, thereby assisting in the EU's decarbonisation and energy independence objectives. The Hydrogen Mechanism not only enables industry players to seize competitive opportunities but also contributes to enhancing security of supply and advancing decarbonisation efforts. Stakeholders can engage with the platform by registering and subscribing, with the first demand and supply matching session planned for September 2025. Additionally, upcoming mechanisms like the Raw Materials Mechanism and the Gas Mechanism will be introduced in the following months. Hydrogen is gaining recognition for its vital role in decarbonising industries where reducing carbon emissions is crucial but challenging. The EU's ambitious targets, including achieving climate neutrality by 2050 and reducing reliance on Russian fossil fuels by the end of 2027, highlight the importance of hydrogen and its derivatives. The EU/2024/1789 Regulation mandates the establishment of a mechanism under the European Hydrogen Bank to support hydrogen market development until 2029, aligning with the region's long-term sustainability goals.
