The European Union wants to build 40 gigawatts of green hydrogen electrolyzers by 2030, and estimates that 80 to 120 gigawatts of solar and wind will be needed to power them. That’s a fresh headache for Europe’s grid operators. That makes it the largest green hydrogen proposal on the drawing board thus far.

On that count, the new announcements made positive progress, with policy measures and investment announced for a range of sectors including heat pumps, energy efficiency, carbon capture, hydrogen, zero emission vehicles and floating offshore wind. The first challenge facing the government is to plug outstanding policy gaps.

Beginning in 1958, these were augmented by nuclear power plants, which have operated nearly continuously to pay off their large capital investments. Unlike coal and nuclear, solar and wind are variable; they provide power only when the sun and wind are available. Innovations that make 100% clean power possible.
