New data and studies highlight accelerating global hydrogen infrastructure — from trade corridors and backbone projects to regulatory harmonisation and shifting gas market dynamics. The global hydrogen infrastructure landscape is rapidly evolving as lower gas prices, network investments, and new policy frameworks converge to shape the next growth phase. In energy markets, softening LNG prices […]
China has introduced its first direct state funding mechanism for green hydrogen and e-fuels — a move that could reshape global clean-fuel economics. On 14 October 2025, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) issued the Decarbonisation Project in State Budget Administration Method, which for the first time allows state funds to cover up to […]
The latest H₂ Market Radar by Team Consult shows a marked slowdown in hydrogen project momentum across Northwest Europe. While 128 electrolysis plants (503 MWel) are now in operation, 18 projects have been cancelled since late 2024 — signalling a phase of consolidation after years of rapid announcements. The report cites a declining risk appetite […]
Chile’s finance committee has adopted amendments to the draft law promoting green hydrogen, meaning the bill now moves to the full chamber before passing to the senate. Key details include: A new tax-credit scheme totalling up to US $2.8 billion, to be allocated via six annual tenders between 2025 and 2030 (starting with about US […]
Westwood’s October Compass flags a policy pivot: Germany will support all low-carbon hydrogen (incl. CCUS) and replace rigid capacity targets with demand-driven goals – while H2Global expands auctions (incl. a joint DE–NL auction for pure hydrogen) and restarts e-methanol imports. In the UK, a £448m UK SHORE package targets maritime decarbonisation (H₂, ammonia, methanol, electrification, […]
The Clean Hydrogen Partnership has selected 15 Hydrogen Valleys from 11 countries for Project Development Assistance (PDA)—9 “PDA light” (early-stage, 6 weeks) and 6 “PDA plus” (toward feasibility/FID, 12 weeks). Expert teams (Roland Berger with Worley) will help on commercial, technical, regulatory, and governance tracks, with work starting in November, subject to a collaboration declaration. […]
Australia’s new bioenergy feedstock strategy proposal excludes used cooking oil (UCO), municipal waste and non-biogenic inputs—explicitly including green hydrogen used for power-to-liquids fuels. Instead, the plan backs agriculture/forestry-derived feedstocks (canola, tallow, biomass, sugar cane, sorghum) and prioritizes HEFA over FT/ATJ/PtL pathways, alongside the A$1.1bn Cleaner Fuels Program. Hydrogen projects can still pursue separate support via […]
FactSet finds that, despite global headwinds, Asia-Pacific and Europe are the only regions meaningfully moving green hydrogen projects into mature stages (FID/construction/commissioning/operations). In 2025 to date, APAC advanced ~824 ktpa H₂e while Europe advanced ~157 ktpa. India’s pipeline is skewed to green ammonia for fertilizers; China’s is diversified (refining, chemicals, transport—including marine fuels); and Europe […]
On October 1, 2025, the Federal Cabinet adopted the draft Hydrogen Acceleration Act to speed up the development of hydrogen infrastructure and reduce bureaucratic hurdles. The law addresses the ENTIRE HYDROGEN SUPPLY CHAIN: from production to import, storage, and transport. The law covers, among other things, onshore and offshore electrolyzers, import facilities for hydrogen (and […]
