Dutch government launches hydrogen subsidy scheme

October 12, 2023 |

In the UK, renew.biz reported that the Dutch government is starting a subsidy scheme for smaller electrolysis projects for the production of hydrogen with sustainable energy.

The government noted that subsidies for $266 million should provide 100MW of electrolysis capacity.

The government hopes to use this money to help realize 5 to 10 smaller projects throughout the country, the report stated.

Only projects up to 50MW are eligible in order to maximize the number of participants, it added.

Climate and Energy Minister Rob Jetten said: “We are taking major steps to realize the major hydrogen ambitions in the Netherlands.

“I am very pleased that we can now also support smaller hydrogen projects. This should give the knowledge and experience with hydrogen production in the Netherlands a big boost,” Jetten added.
