Alongside several co-signatories, Bellona Europa signed a letter calling for the creation of an independent hydrogen network development entity. Developing a European network for renewable hydrogen is crucial for our energy transition and honouring the Paris Agreement.
The EU needs to establish global leadership in this essential technology to enhance energy security and rapidly decarbonise hard-to-electrify sectors. Due to its physical and economic characteristics, renewable hydrogen will not replace fossil gas one for one, and therefore cannot be governed in the same way.

Open Letter: Importance of the European Network of Operators for Hydrogen
Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries face numerous challenges in decarbonising theireconomies. Of these, the transformation of heavy industry...
While the Polish Presidency presents an opportunity to address critical challenges, its current priorities fall short of aligning European competitiveness and security with the urgent need for climate action. Bellona’s Roadmap for 2024-2029 calls on the EU to implement ambitious and science-based climate goals to achieve climate neutrality and strengthen EU security. By focusing on industrial decarbonisation, renewable energy integration, transparent climate policy, and green public procurement, the Presidency can lead the EU towards a resilient, competitive, and climate-neutral future. As such, Bellona calls on Poland to implement more concrete and ambitious climate policies and well-functioning markets for a net-zero world.
More stringent rules for ‘blue hydrogen’ based on fossil gas in the low-carbon fuels delegated act are needed to ensure a level playing field for Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin.
At COP28 last year, world leaders finally called for the beginning of the end of fossil fuels. But where do we stand now? Bellona has a longstan...
