The Roundtable for Hydrogen Transmission and Distribution of the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance, supported by the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs, has published its Learnbook on Hydrogen Supply Corridors which provides industry expertise and knowledge of the development of the six potential hydrogen import corridors as visualised in the REPowerEU Action Plan.
The corridors mentioned in the Learnbook are the South Central one, the Iberian one, the North Sea one, the Nordic-Baltic one and the Eastern and South-eastern one. In
addition the Leanrbook includes a dedicated chapter on Germany as a key arrival and convergence point for all corridors.
“The Learnbook provides a very clear and detailed overview of the hydrogen
infrastructure-related initiatives in the EU,” commented Jean Bergevin, Directorate-General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs Senior Expert. “It is a solid basis for further collaboration among stakeholders and for discussions on how to optimally connect hydrogen suppliers and consumers.”
The Learnbook was developed to materialise the theoretical, by applying practical industry
expertise and knowledge within three key areas: first, to identify the potential and specificities of each corridor; second to provide a visual representation of each corridor with a list of planned hydrogen transmission, distribution, storage, terminal and production/demand projects; lastly, to identify region-specific bottlenecks and provide recommendations to mitigate them.
