Green NGOs and renewable fuel producers: Commission must resist pressure to reopen the rules governing renewable hydrogen

2025 marked an important milestone for EU hydrogen policy: with the entry into force of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/2359 (‘Low-Carbon fuel Delegated Act’), the EU hydrogen regulatory framework, which has been in the making for several years, is now complete.

The completion of this framework provides much needed regulatory certainty to producers, offtakers and investors, and it is considered crucial for a successful market rollout.

We are writing to express our concerns about recent calls from some industrial and political stakeholders to bring forward the review of the requirements on additionality, and temporal and geographical correlation ahead of the foreseen 2028 deadline. In this context, we urge the European Commission to refrain from reopening or accelerating the review of these requirements before that date.
