Objective
Across the EU a large number of hydrogen projects have been announced. This will considerably contribute to the EU goal of 55% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 and allow the EU to de-fossilise its energy system. With a high number of projects progressing to realisation, public institutions responsible for permitting, including licensing and safety analysis of hydrogen projects, will play a crucial role in processing the permitting formalities. The EU Net-Zero Industry Act, though, specifically calls for permitting procedures to take no longer than 18 months. However, there is still widespread uncertainty with local public institutions, as to which regulatory framework applies and how projects are to be classified, assessed, and monitored. Local lack of expertise, lack of knowledge, lack of experience with assessment frameworks, and reluctance to enter risks with innovative projects are further obstacles to providing rapid pathways to a de-fossilised European energy system.
The PermittHy project targets this challenge by supplying guidance and training to public officials evaluating such hydrogen project applications, and issuing building and operating permits. We expand this audience by also addressing all other staff involved in permitting processes, including certification bodies, engineers tasked with writing applications, or typical stakeholders involved in permitting processes, such as fire brigades and first responders.
The project will
- focus on giving guidance on evaluation, licensing and permitting procedures for hydrogen projects;
- create educational material in 18 official EU languages;
- deliver trainings online and in person across 25 Member and 4 Associated States; and
- supply hands-on, practical hydrogen safety training.
PermittHy will be working closely with the Net-Zero Hydrogen Academy and the European Hydrogen Academy to deliver its services to the widest audience possible.
