Workshop: “Advancing EU infrastructure through the national implementation of the EU Decarbonised Gas and Hydrogen Package: Connecting policy, financial support mechanisms and market creation”
The workshop focused on the needs to scale up hydrogen infrastructure to ensure a resilient, decarbonised European energy system. The event highlighted the regulatory, financial, and technical measures needed to unlock investments and facilitate market scale up. Discussions were centered on aligning national strategies with European objectives, securing investments, and addressing barriers to project development.
