Conference: A Legal Framework for Renewable Hydrogen
Cooperation and Mutual Recognition to Speed up the Transition
29.08.2023, 15:00-19:30h
In June, the EU Commission's Delegated Acts were successfully passed, and last year, the USA implemented the Inflation Reduction Act. As we anticipate the integration of EU regulations into national law over the next few months, the conditions for producing green hydrogen in individual countries are becoming clearer. Now, the focus lies in establishing legally binding certificates for hydrogen consumers, providing evidence of their purchase of sustainable hydrogen. Several countries are developing certification systems, and a global analysis has examined eleven standards by the World Energy Council and dena.
We would like to delve into the current status of these standards and the challenges involved in their market implementation. Questions arise about ensuring globally recognised standards if the diversity persists, and how quickly legally binding certificates can be issued to companies.
We will explore the European and North American perspectives from the viewpoint of institutions, associations, legislators, as well as hydrogen users in the industry. We cordially invite you to an afternoon of insightful discussions on imports, exports, and certification systems.
The event will be conducted in English.
