Harmonising hydrogen networks quality standards across Europe

Hydrogen networks in Europe will need common quality rules to keep cross-border flows efficient and safe. This study maps purity levels, contaminants and infrastructure bottlenecks, and weighs 98 %, 99.5 % and 99.97 % hydrogen specifications against costs and end-user needs. This European Commission-commissioned study provides the technical backbone for future hydrogen networks by analysing how production routes, pipelines, storage […]

Digital engineering for hydrogen pipelines

Hydrogen pipelines will be built and repurposed at massive scale over the next decade, but traditional engineering methods are too slow and costly. This presentation outlines why a fully digital design-to-construction-to-integrity workflow is essential to accelerate Europe’s emerging hydrogen backbone. The report highlights the scale of planned hydrogen pipeline development, including 11,600 km by 2030 and 40,000 km by 2040, […]

Hydrogen derivatives market demand for Baltic Sea ports

Baltic Sea ports are emerging as strategic hubs for future hydrogen derivatives such as ammonia and methanol, driven by shipping decarbonisation and industrial demand. This study assesses which fuels will dominate, expected trade flows and the infrastructure ports will need to capture this market opportunity. The report analyses the market potential for hydrogen derivatives in the Baltic Sea region, including […]

Green hydrogen production under RFNBO criteria

RFNBO rules on additionality, geographic correlation and temporal matching will strongly influence how green hydrogen is produced and where projects are built in Europe. This report quantifies how these criteria change system costs, electrolyser operation, renewable build-out and project-level economics. The study examines the impact of RFNBO criteria for green hydrogen production from both a European system perspective and a […]
