Delegated acts on hydrogen are looking to phase out CCU provisions in RFNBOs too early, according to consultation responses
A number of firms have objected to a clause in the EU’s delegated acts on hydrogen that they say will limit investment decisions on some hydrogen projects.

RFNBOs are produced by combining green hydrogen with CO₂. That CO₂ can come from industry, classed as non-sustainable, or direct air capture (DAC), classed as sustainable.
