The Alliance is urging project promoters among its members to present their projects to the EIB.
The development of green, zero-emission hydrogen requires significant investments. Over the past eight years, the EU bank has provided over €550 million ($607 million) in direct financial support related to hydrogen technologies. This has helped mobilise over €1.2 billion ($1.3 billion) in overall investment.
The Bank has provided advisory support to projects across Europe representing over €1 billion ($1.1 billion) in potential investment. Currently, the Bank supports technologies such as electrolysers, catalysts and fuel cells.
It also finances large-scale hydrogen production, electrolysis, carbon capture and storage and hydrogen stations.
Promoters of electrolyser manufacturing and electrolyser deployment projects are invited to provide basic project information using a template.
The deadline for submitting completed forms is 5 April 2022. EIB teams will assess the information provided and select projects.
Introductions are expected to be held end-April/early May and will give project promoters the opportunity to present their projects in detail. The possibility of EIB Advisory support will be explored for eligible projects.
