        Environmental Transformation Fund (ETF)

        The Stern Review of 2006 concluded that three elements of policy are required for an effective global response to the threat of dangerous climate change: The pricing of carbon, Support for innovation and deployment of low-carbon technologies, and Removing the barriers to energy efficiency. The Environmental Transformation Fund (ETF) is part of the second element of the then government response, in the UK and internationally, to create a GBP 1.2 billion fund for the three years from April 2008 to March 2011. The international fund disbursed GBP 800 million over the three years, focusing on projects that supported…

        Hydrogen Production Delivery Roadmap

        Sets the vision for hydrogen production in 2035 and some the intermediate targets including (a) 4 GW of production from CCUS and 6 GW from renewables; (b) annual allocation rounds for electrolytic projects between 2025 and 2030; up to 1.5 GW in HAR3 and 4; review of the deployment trajectory by 2025 to update targets and actions as necessary

        Hydrogen strategy

        Focus on renewable and nuclear hydrogen. Hydrogen demand expected to reach levels of 24-55 ktpa by 2030 and 110-305 ktpa by 2050. Import by pipeline from mid-2030s. Strategy defines measures with timeline for completion across 9 areas including a certification scheme that should be in place by 2025, financial support for production from 2025 to 2030, exemption from grid fees, and exemption from CO2 tax for hydrogen used as a fuel

        Hydrogen roadmap for green hydrogen

        Target to install 3 GW of electrolysers by 2040 and establish regulations for domestic hydrogen use and potentially for export to international markets. Investment needs of USD 3-5.7 billion by 2030

        Concept for the development of the hydrogen industry

        Recognizes hydrogen's contribution to reaching carbon neutrality and reducing GHG emissions. Production target of 10 ktpa by 2027, 18 ktpa by 2029 and 25 ktpa by 2030 with at least 50% of renewable hydrogen. Export targets of 5, 10, and 15 ktpa increasing from 2028 to 2030. Other 2030 targets include 100000 m3 of hydrogen storage and one HRS

        Hydrogen Power Generation Bidding Market - Clean - Round 2

        In 2025, a second hydrogen auction will award 3 TWh of low-carbon hydrogen and 1.3 TWh of hydrogen-based power (no GHG criteria) under 15-year contracts starting in 2028. The auction is open to imports and various technologies, with bid price (60%) as the main evaluation factor, alongside certification (14%), local content (6%), and emissions reduction (4%). Applications close between July and September 2025, with results expected by November. Key changes include FX indexation and flexible volume adjustments. Around 15 projects are expected to be supported.

        Regulatory proposals for geologic hydrogen

        The Government is currently reviewing regulations to determine whether changes are needed to support natural hydrogen exploration and the development of orange hydrogen. Any updates to the regulatory framework are expected to begin in mid-2025. Two main options are being considered: one would classify hydrogen as a mineral, giving private owners the rights to develop it; the other would exclude hydrogen from that definition, allowing its development to focus on broader goals like reducing emissions or enhancing energy security.

        National Hydrogen Strategy Preliminary Guidelines

        Published by the Ministry of Economic Development, the National Hydrogen Strategy Preliminary Guidelines set the vision and targets for hydrogen penetration toward a decarbonized and sustainable economy.

        By 2030, the ambition is to reach a 2% hydrogen penetration in final energy demand, including applications in long-distance freight transport, heavy industry, refineries and blending into the gas grid. To supply this demand, 5 GW of electrolysis capacity is expected to be installed in the same period.

        By 2050, the target goes to 20%, including also energy storage in the power sector and residential buildings applications.

        Up to EUR 10 Billion…
