The European Commission unveiled the Clean Industry Deal on February 26, 2025, as a strategic response to challenges impacting Europe's industrial competitiveness and sovereignty. This initiative is crucial for the large-scale deployment of the hydrogen sector, with a focus on finalizing regulatory frameworks, ensuring competitive electricity supply, and enhancing funding and risk management for projects. Philippe Boucly, President of France Hydrogene, applauds the initiative for recognizing the importance of hydrogen in industrial sustainability. He stresses the need for fairness in treatments towards renewable and low-carbon hydrogen. The Deal aligns with broader European efforts to balance decarbonization with reindustrialization, urging France to maintain its commitment to clean hydrogen leadership.
