Historic analogues suggest that emergency-like policy measures could foster high growth rates, expediting a breakthrough and increasing the likelihood of future hydrogen availability. However, EU targets require unprecedented growth rates, according to a group of German and US researchers. September 26, 2022 Sergio MatalucciA group of German and US researchers claim that green hydrogen and derived electrofuels will likely supply less than 1% of final energy by 2030 in the European Union and by 2035 throughout the world, if electrolysis grows as quickly as wind and solar power did in the past.“By 2040, a breakthrough to higher shares is more likely, but large uncertainties prevail with an interquartile range of 3.2% to 11.2% (EU) and 0.7% to 3.3% (globally),” said the researchers. They suggested that short-term scarcity and long-term uncertainty will slow investments in hydrogen…
