Signed today at the UK Embassy in Berlin by Minister for Energy Efficiency and Green Finance Lord Callanan and the Federal Republic of Germany&#8217;s State Secretary for Energy, Philip Nimmermann, the Joint Declaration of Intent will see the two governments work together to try and boost international trade in hydrogen.<\/p>\n<p>The two governments said they will look to accelerate the role of low-carbon hydrogen in their nation&#8217;s energy mix, adding they hope to showcase to other countries how the fuel source can play an integral role in accelerating the net zero transition. They added they are committed to working together to further advance the development of ground-breaking low carbon and green hydrogen technologies, which they said could support new jobs and low-carbon investment.<\/p>\n<p>Both governments said the co-operation agreement would build on their previous investment in the fledgling low carbon hydrogen sector. For example, in the UK the government is supporting new low-carbon hydrogen production with capital from the \u00a3240m Net Zero Hydrogen Fund and planned revenue support from the upcoming Hydrogen Production Business Model.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, in Germany the government is supporting implementation of the National Hydrogen Strategy with funding from Climate and Transformation Fund. Callanan said the UK and Germany were &#8220;natural partners in making low-carbon hydrogen a cleaner and more sustainable way to power up our societies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This agreement will underpin the development of this new fuel not just for our respective countries but also for an international trade that could be transformative in our work towards achieving net zero emissions by 2050,&#8221; he added. &#8220;It is through these partnerships that we can move away from expensive fossil fuels &#8211; and in doing so boost our energy security.&#8221; His comments were echoed by Nimmermann, who said that &#8220;with this declaration we are on our way to jointly help developing the European and international markets for hydrogen&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our cooperation will not just involve trading of hydrogen and its derivates, but also cooperation on technologies and innovation in this field, which will be of mutual benefit for both Germany and the UK,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Hydrogen is of the highest importance for us to meet our goals regarding emission reduction. Also, it is a great opportunity for business. I am looking forward to a successful partnership.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The leaders agreed &#8216;five pillars of collaboration&#8217; as part of the partnership, including accelerating the deployment of hydrogen projects for industry and consumers; establishing international leadership on hydrogen markets; setting new safety and regulations to aid trade in hydrogen; and increased spending on research and innovation projects covering hydrogen production through to end use. The leaders said they would also look to promote trade in hydrogen, plus related goods, technologies and services, and undertake a joint market analysis to support planning and investment by government and industry.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership was welcomed by Steve Scrimshaw, vice president for Siemens Energy UK&amp;I and a member of the UK government&#8217;s Hydrogen Advisory Council and the Green Jobs Delivery Group, who said the UK and Germany had a &#8220;proud track record&#8221; when it comes to advancing green energy develoment. He added that while &#8220;ramping up the hydrogen economy will take time&#8230; closer cooperation between countries such as the UK and Germany will help accelerate the scale and pace that is needed&#8221;. &#8220;The sustainable decarbonisation of industry is unthinkable without renewable hydrogen that is why partnerships like this are so important,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>The news comes just days after the International Energy Agency published a major new report warning that governments around the world needed to step up efforts to provide the policies and subsidies that would enable the delivery of the growing global pipeline of green hydrogen projects. The report warned that without urgent action from government rising costs and policy uncertainty risked undermining investment in projects that will prove critical to meeting global climate goals.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.businessgreen.com\/news\/4129121\/uk-germany-ink-hydrogen-partnership\">Business Green<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/uk-and-germany-ink-new-hydrogen-partnership\/\">UK and Germany ink new hydrogen partnership<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1038,623,883,579,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-117211","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-germany","tag-hydrogen","tag-partnership","tag-uk","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117211","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117211"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117211\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117211"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117211"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117211"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
