Hydrogen projects within the framework of IPCEIs - H2 Hy2Infra - GreenMotionSteel (Duisburg)

The IPCEI (Important Project of Common European Interest) on Hydrogen was launched in 2020 to promote the market ramp-up of green hydrogen.

In the course of this project 23 EU Member States as well as Norway collaborate to interlink European hydrogen projects and to benefit from spill-over effects at a European level.

In the meantime, four IPCEI Hydrogen “waves” with 18 involved countries have been registered at the EU level. 1,5 billion from the RRF will support some of the overall 62 projects in Germany. The German plan will support integrated hydrogen projects along the entire value chain.

The measure is articulated around production, transport and storage of hydrogen, as well as on hydrogen applications (in industry and mobility). New electrolysis capability will be built to produce renewable hydrogen in locations where sufficient renewable electricity is available.
