Repowering the EU with Hydrogen Valleys: Commission presents progress towards a European hydrogen economy
The European Union has made progress towards having at least 50 Hydrogen Valleys - local industrial or transport clusters where renewable hydrogen supply feeds local demand - under construction or operational by 2030, but important work still needs to be done. Today, the Commission published a Staff Working Document outlining the strategic priorities and actions that are currently ongoing or planned.

Iliana Ivanova, Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, said:

“Clean hydrogen plays a significant role in our green energy transition and strategic energy independence. EU is at the cutting edge of hydrogen technologies thanks to long-term investment into research and innovation. Hydrogen Valleys are another important step forward. If policymakers and innovators join forces, we will achieve our aim of having at least 50 of them in operation or under construction by 2030 across the EU.”
