Hydrogen imports to Europe are in planning and pipelines are being built. The EU gas grid is switching to hydrogen, starting with a core hydrogen network

The ambitious initial objective was to reach 20m tons of hydrogen from both imports and domestic production by 2030

Some initial thoughts on the new #hydrogen import cost study by Florian Egli

Electrolyser CAPEX provided by study - despite various questions, did not appear to be as bad as Keith Patch implies

However, the report has some severe inconsistencies, even at €3.20/kg

They have lobbied for the tightest possible regulations, blocked any possible #hydrogenimports, and strategically lobby against a decade of EU policy ⬇️
