Germany's government has proposed a law to accelerate the development of hydrogen projects and infrastructure to achieve its goal of carbon neutrality.
Germany ’s government approved on Wednesday a draft law to enable faster development of hydrogen projects and infrastructure by fast-tracking permitting and environmental checks for hydrogen production, storage, and transportation, government sources told Reuters. The so-called Hydrogen Acceleration Law will give hydrogen projects priority in approvals, simplify permitting, and fast-track environmental impact assessments.
In a 2023 update of the National Hydrogen Strategy, Germany raised the target for hydrogen electrolysis capacities from 5 gigawatts GW to 10 GW by 2030, assuming that hydrogen demand in Germany will increase to 95-130 terawatt hours TWh by 2030, from around 55 TWh per year in 2023. The Strategy also sets out how hydrogen demand is to become even greater between 2030 and 2045.
