Subsidy scheme for the use of hydrogen (derivates) for electricity production

The subsidy scheme aimed at achieving a CO₂-free electricity system by 2035, with approximately €1 billion allocated from the Climate Fund. It emphasizes the importance of CO₂-free dispatchable power to ensure a reliable electricity supply when renewable sources are unavailable. Hydrogen is highlighted as a key CO₂-free energy carrier to replace natural gas in gas-fired power plants. The scheme aims to open before 2030, with funds available until after January 1, 2031.
