Relevant Funding programmes for the Hydrogen Industry
In addition to the existing grants programme, the EC has developed a new support mechanism of competitive bidding (auctions). IF Hydrogen Auction is designed to cost-efficiently support the production of renewable fuel of non-biological origin (RFNBO) hydrogen within the European Economic Area.
Clean Hydrogen Partnership
Also known as Clean Hydrogen Joint Undertaking is a public and private partnership that supports European R&I activities in hydrogen technologies. It aims to strengthen and integrate EU scientific capacity to accelerate the development and improvement of advanced clean hydrogen applications and to support the EU Green Deal and Hydrogen Strategy.
The CETPartnership programme aims to empower the clean energy transition and foster collaboration among innovative businesses, promoting cross-border projects for clean energy transition. It offers funding covering 50-75% of project costs, making it an ideal step for SMEs pursuing international projects.
Focus is on innovative low-carbon technologies and processes in energy intensive industries with the objective of launching industrial solutions to decarbonise Europe and support its transition to climate neutrality. For all projects sizes, applicants can get up to 60% of the total project capital expenditure.
Connecting Europe Facility (CEF)
A key deliver to the European Green Deal and a EU's decarbonization objectives for 2030 and 2050. With a total budget of €20.73 billion for 2021-2027, the CEF drives economic growth and competitiveness through targeted infrastructure investment supporting the development of the trans-European networks.
Breakthrough Energy Catalyst
Aims to raise €840 million to fund emerging climate technology projects that significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions but are currently too costly to scale. The projects include large-scale demonstrations and unique industrial initiatives for clean technologies aligned with the European Green Deal and 2030 climate goals.
