This webinar is hosted by the EVERYWH2ERE project which constructs ready-to-use hydrogen fuel cell gensets as an alternative to conventional diesel generators. Organised in cooperation with ICLEI several cities have engaged in testing the genset solutions. As part of its mission, the project aims to present stakeholders with a well-balanced perspective on the potential role and use of hydrogen in different sectors. Envipark is a project partner of EVERYWH2ERE.
With the presentation of the much discussed “delegated act on the production of renewable liquid and gaseous transport fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO)”, the European Commission has provided more clarity on the origin of renewable hydrogen produced via electrolysis.
Building on the momentum of the discussion, this webinar will reflect on the possible implications of the regulation for the production of hydrogen and its end-use across different sectors by discussing:
- Considering the criteria, can Europe expand its renewable electricity production fast enough to cater to
both an increased demand for direct electrification as well as the production of renewable hydrogen? - How can end-users be sure that the received hydrogen is renewable? What certifications schemes exist?
- Given an increased share of renewables on the grid, are hydrogen solutions viable from a local
government’s perspective? - How can hydrogen solutions contribute to emissions reduction in temporary and (potentially) off-grid
events such as construction sites and festivals?
23 march from 10:00 to 12:30.
