In our response to the EU Commission's proposed rules on electricity sourcing criteria for renewable hydrogen, we recognise the European Commission’s goal to standardise the criteria for the production of renewable hydrogen and advocate for a pragmatic regulatory approach that will underpin rapid deployment. To meet the EU’s decarbonisation objectives, rapid deployment of hydrogen and its derivatives is needed across hard-to-abate sectors.
In our consultation response, we encourage the European Commission to draft the text in such a way that avoids ambiguity and multiple interpretations. We also advocate for an extension of the proposed deadline on the use of waste fossil carbon for the production of such fuels. We welcome the European Commission’s efforts to establish a standard methodology for calculating the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions savings for Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin (RFNBOs) and Recycled Carbon Fuels (RCFs), as these are key to achieving the EU’s ambitious GHG reduction targets.
