Development of sustainability criteria for hydrogen and its derivatives at global level: Support the European Commission in international dialogues

Sustainability dimensions for green hydrogen imports

At other countries' expense?

Presentation by Dr. Roman Mendelevitch and Christoph Heineman, Oeko-Institute's Annual Conference 2022, 22. June 2022, dbb forum, Berlin

Sustainability dimensions, blind spots in current regulation and certification, and potential solutions for hydrogen imports to Europe

Comparing sustainability of RES- and methane-based hydrogen

The regulatory landscape for the sustainability of hydrogen in the EU can be compared to a complex construction site in an early stage of development, where the overall goal is clear, some foundations and cornerstones have been or are being built, but several important elements still need to be deve

Hydrogen fact sheet – Gulf Cooperation Countries (GCC)

The GCC countries (Saudi Arabia, Oman, United Arab Emirates UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain) all have investigated the option to export hydrogen or derivatives. However, there are no specific hydrogen strategies published, while strategies are planned or under preparation in Oman, Kuwait and UAE.

Hydrogen Fact Sheet – North African Countries

All the North African countries in scope (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt and Mauretania) see the option of exporting green hydrogen or derivatives based on RES-E. However, their current electricity systems show high specific CO2-emissions due to high shares of coal or natural gasfired electricity

Hydrogen fact sheet – Argentina

Argentina offers some of the largest potentials for low costs hydrogen based on renewable electricity in the world. This is due to high average wind speeds and in addition high solar irradiation throughout large areas of the country. However, transport distances to major offtake regions such as Euro

Critical Review of the IPHE Working Paper “Methodology for Determining the GHG emissions associated with the Production of hydrogen”

This paper provides a critical review of selected aspects of the draft IPHE methodology. The purpose of this paper is to provide an input to people involved in the consultation process concerning the draft IPHE methodology. The main questions of interest discussed in this paper are: Does the meth
