Gulf Energy Information’s Global Energy Infrastructure (GEI) database is tracking > 1,400 active H₂ projects globally. Most projects are in Western Europe, followed by Asia and the U.S. In total, these three regions account for 80% of active H₂ projects globally, with Europe accounting for nearly 50% of all H₂ projects. Within Europe, most H₂ projects are in the UK and Germany. These two countries comprise nearly 40% of active H₂ projects in the region. The UK and Germany are followed by Spain (11%), the Netherlands (10%), France (7%), Norway (6%) and various other Western European countries (22%). The significant number of capital projects in the H₂ sector is a result of European directives to mitigate carbon emissions in all facets of the region’s industrial sectors, with an end goal of carbon neutrality.
