A Roadmap for the Deployment of EU Hydrogen Valleys
Summary
The Clean Air Task Force (CATF) recommends that the EU prioritise 'no regrets' industrial sectors for hydrogen deployment, utilize all clean production pathways (including 'blue' hydrogen), and site production close to consumption to minimize transport inefficiencies. The report emphasizes that public funding should be matched to projects that provide socio-economic benefits to local communities and that a comprehensive EU database should be established to ensure transparency and collaboration.
Key insights
- Hydrogen deployment should be prioritised for 'no regrets' sectors where it is essential for industrial processes or where no other cost-effective decarbonisation options exist. First-order priority sectors include crude oil refining, petrochemicals, ammonia (fertiliser), methanol, and steel and iron production.
