Description
The European Hydrogen Bank is an initiative to facilitate the EU's domestic production and imports of hydrogen. It aims to unlock private investment in the EU and in third countries by addressing investment challenges, closing the funding gap, and connecting future renewable hydrogen supply to consumers. Its domestic pillar is implemented through the Innovation Fund.
Please note:
The views and information presented at this event, as well as the accompanying materials, reflect the views of the Commission services responsible for preparing the upcoming Innovation Fund auction. The purpose of this event is to provide potential applicants with preliminary guidance in preparing their submissions ahead of the official call for proposals, which is scheduled to be published at the end of 2026.
The official call for proposals, including the auction's call document, will be the definitive documents applicants must abide by. In case of any discrepancies or inconsistencies between this event's materials and the official call documents, the latter will take precedence.
