By 2030, 10 tons of clean hydrogen annually: Von der Leyen

(ANSA) - BRUSSELS, 26 GEN - "From 2030, we intend to produce 10 million tons of clean hydrogen per year by ourselves and import another 10 million tons. This is an ambitious but feasible goal. Therefore, the project here in Hamburg is a pilot project for Europe. In addition, the European Hydrogen Bank has a new auction system. All this will greatly boost the whole European hydrogen economy." EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said this at the Climate Forum in Hamburg.
    "All this comes against a background of a real boom in renewable energy - she added -; solar capacity increased by 50 percent in 2022 compared to the previous year. In 2023, it increased by another 40 percent. This means that the expansion of solar energy is far ahead of schedule until 2030. The same is true for wind power. We have significantly accelerated the approval process at the European level," von der Leyen explained. (ANSA).
