In Germany, PV Magazine reported that the Danish Energy Agency has pre-approved a certification scheme to allow PtX producers in Denmark to certify green fuels.
PtX, also known as green hydrogen or electrofuels, involves using electricity to produce hydrogen. EU legislation requires these fuels to be certified in order to be described as “green.”
The European Commission has not yet finalized its certification scheme for PtX producers, causing concern about a lack of certification for upcoming Danish projects. The Danish Energy Agency said its certification system should remove this uncertainty and allow production to start this year, according to the report.
The agency has described the approval process as a “short-term transitional solution.” It will be replaced by the European Commission’s certification system, which is expected later this year, the report added.
