RePowerEU Plan: Joint European action on gas supply security
The REPowerEU Plan aims to fast forward clean energy transition of the European Union and make Europe independent from Russian fossil fuels well before 2030. Measures related to gas supply security include:Common purchases of non-Russian gas, LNG and hydrogen via the EU Energy Platform for all Member States who want to participate as well as Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia and the Western BalkansDiversification through new partnerships with reliable suppliers, including future cooperation on renewables and low-emission gasesA legislative proposal on minimum gas storage, with an 80% filling target by 1 November 2022 and to 90% ahead of all…

Clean Energy Target
…a single national scheme. It is also intended that the Clean Energy Target will provide additional investment momentum to the deployment of renewable and other low emissions electricity generation technologies in the early years of the Australian Emissions Trading Scheme.The Clean Energy Target will cover all renewable energy technologies and those low emissions technologies that emit less than 200 kilograms of greenhouse gases per megawatt hour of electricity supplied. For example, it will include electricity generated from fossil fuels where carbon dioxide capture and storage is used.The measure will be developed as soon as practicable, for commencement no…

Moroccan Offer
Morocco offers tax and financial incentives for large-scale hydrogen projects, including up to 30% investment support and shared infrastructure. In 2024, 300,000 ha were opened for development, attracting nearly 40 applicants. The first award went to a European consortium for a 200 ktpa renewable ammonia project. In 2025, six projects were selected with a combined investment of USD 32.7 billion, involving global developers and targeting ammonia, synthetic fuels, and low-emissions steel.

The Low-Emission Transport Fund
The task of the Low-Emission Transport Fund is to finance projects to develop electromobilty (electric vehicles, charging infrastructure) and transport based on alternative fuels (CNG, LNG, biofuels and other renewable fuels). The revenues of the Fund will consist of a target grant from the state budget in an amount of up 1.5% of the revenues planned in the previous budget year from the excise duty on motor fuels and the resources provided by the electricity transmission system operator in an amount of 0.1% of the justified return of capital employed in the economic activity carried out in…

Support ultra-low emission vehicles (ULEVs)
Future transport – The NPIF will invest a further £390 million by 2020-21 to support ultra-low emission vehicles (ULEVs), renewable fuels, and connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). This includes £80 million for ULEV charging infrastructure, £150 million in support for low emission buses and taxis, £20 million for the development of alternative aviation and heavy goods vehicle fuels, and £100 million for new UK CAV testing infrastructure. In addition to the tax incentives for ULEVs in company tax and salary schemes set out in the tax chapter, from today to the end of March 2019 the government will also…
