The projects are part of the EU’s Hy2Infra initiative, which encompasses 33 initiatives from several of the bloc’s member states.
Germany’s national and regional governments will put some EUR 4.6 billion into the German hydrogen infrastructure IPCEIs.
“The German national government considers it essential to strengthen Germany’s hydrogen economy along the entire value creation chain,” said German Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Action Robert Habeck in a statement. “The German IPCEI hydrogen projects are a central element of the core hydrogen network. Together with private companies and Germany’s regional states, we can now start making this a reality.”
