Europe urged to step-up its renewable hydrogen game

The Renewable Hydrogen Coalition (RHC), as the voice of the value chain, encompassing renewable energy suppliers, start-ups, investors, and industrial offtakers dedicated to making Europe the global leader in renewable hydrogen solutions, has called on the European decision-making realms and leaders to scale up incentives, funding opportunities, and market fundamentals for clean technology, especially the landscape surrounding hydrogen made from renewable sources.

During Renewable Hydrogen Summit on December 4, 2025, Dan Jørgensen, Commissioner for Energy and Housing, reaffirmed the European Commission’s commitment to ramp up renewable hydrogen in Europe, as RHC called for a ‘new deal’ for the sector to maintain Europe’s first-mover advantage amid growing global competition.

The summit declaration outlined urgent actions for policymakers to create effective demand incentives for products made with renewable hydrogen, enhance supply, develop electricity and hydrogen infrastructure, and ensure public funding supports scaling up to meet the European Union (EU) goals.
