The European Commission is set to introduce a groundbreaking tool to connect European hydrogen buyers with suppliers, both local and international. This initiative comes at a pivotal time as Europe is witnessing the construction of large-scale electrolysers and the signing of initial operating agreements. The platform will gather and analyze data on hydrogen trends and pricing, offering crucial insights to buyers and suppliers. Not limited to renewable hydrogen, it will encompass low-carbon hydrogen and its derivatives, aiming to enhance market transparency and promote investments. The European Hydrogen Bank will host this platform for five years, seeking to streamline interactions between market players. The Commission's objective is to expedite investment decisions and contractual agreements by enhancing the visibility of demand dynamics. Similar to existing platforms for strategic raw materials, this tool is anticipated to catalyze market activities and drive strategic collaborations. The process of selecting a capable IT platform supplier is already underway, with plans for a contract finalization by year-end and implementation by mid-2025. This development is poised to revolutionize the hydrogen market landscape in Europe, fostering innovation and sustainability.
