A key indicator of Germany’s hydrogen ambitions has dimmed: despite a national target of 10 GW of installed electrolyser capacity by…

As Germany navigates the energy transition while phasing out coal, the state of Saxony-Anhalt has launched a €87 million green hydrogen subsidy program, designed to catalyze industrial decarbonisation in one of the country’s most coal-reliant regions.

Tree Energy Solutions (TES) and CPC Finland OY have established LUOTO ENERGIA OY, a joint venture aiming to build a 500 MW green hydrogen and electric natural gas (e-NG) production facility in Rauma, Finland.

Germany’s federal budget proposal for 2025 signals a major retreat from previously committed financial support for industrial green hydrogen, with funding expected to drop from €3.7 billion to just €1.2 billion through 2030—a 67.5% reduction.

Fortum and P2X Solutions have signed a sales agreement that will see hydrogen produced at Fortum’s Kalla test center supplied directly to P2X’s customers.

The final testing of the VGGT-1 exploratory geothermal well in Velika Gorica has confirmed a reservoir exceeding 100°C—potentially transforming the city’s central heating landscape.

Spain’s Castilla y León region has officially entered the hydrogen economy with the commissioning of its first renewable hydrogen production plant—delivered through a collaboration between Somacyl, Redexis, and Ingeteam, with technology supplied by H2B2 Electrolysis Technologies.

With a planned production capacity of over 3,000 tonnes per year, a new green hydrogen facility in Karmsund, Norway is positioning itself as a key enabler of regional decarbonization for both maritime and onshore industry.

ITM Power has launched a new German subsidiary, Hydropulse GmbH, that will build, own, and operate small- to mid-scale green hydrogen plants — offering industrial clients hydrogen supply without upfront capital or technology risk.

Greece has unveiled its first legal framework on hydrogen and renewable gases, signaling intent to shape its role in Europe’s low-carbon energy transition. Yet, behind the legislative milestone lies a sobering reality: absent government subsidies, the financial viability of green hydrogen projects remains uncertain.
