In May, the EU Commission plans to present its plans for a hydrogen bank. Internal documents from the Directorate-General for Energy (DG ENER) show that the European Hydrogen Bank is expected to auction contracts for difference or fixed premiums for hydrogen projects. Epico KlimaInnovation, the Konrad Adenauer Foundation (KAS) and Guidehouse have examined these models for a European Hydrogen Bank in their report earlier this year. They conclude that a double auction model would only be suitable under certain circumstances.
