EU hydrogen strategy

Another medium and long-term opportunity for PGNiG is the European Commission’s plans regarding the development of a hydrogen market in the European Union.

In its strategy of July 2020, the Commission points to the key role of low-emission fossil-based hydrogen (produced from fossil fuels including natural gas) with carbon capture in CCUS units on the way towards full decarbonisation of hydrogen18. As the vast majority of hydrogen used by industry today is made via steam methane reforming, PGNiG seems to be naturally positioned to engage in the process. Hence the projects undertaken by PGNiG  to enable industrial storage of hydrogen and transmission of hydrogen through the gas distribution network.
