In May, the Japanese parliament approved the Hydrogen Society Promotion Act and the CCS Business Act into law. These two bills are Japan's first laws relating to the business of hydrogen and the business of carbon capture and storage respectively.

Never Waste a Green Electron Again!⚡️Green Hydrogen from Sun & Wind Power Surplus 💚 Encouraging everyone to work in the green energy sector 💡 Head of Communications
The Japanese government aims to make the country a carbon-free society by providing subsidies that narrow the price gaps between #hydrogen and existing fossil fuels such as natural gas. On May 17, the Japanese parliament enacted a bill that defines the allocation of 15-year subsidies for locally produced and imported low-carbon hydrogen. 🇯🇵 Japan, like 🇩🇪 Germany, is a global industrial powerhouse with no fossil fuel natural resources. Hydrogen is an essential piece for achieving a decarbonised and efficient green energy mix.

🚀 Day 1 at the Hydrogen Americas 2024 Summit: so far, so good! The main message is clear: “Momentum is growing,” and “the time for hydrogen market lift-off is now.” 🌍 All speakers have emphasized the need for policies designed to close the cost gap between traditional fuels and hydrogen, making it easier to use hydrogen and support the energy transition. We saw examples like the American 45V tax credit system and Japan’s big fund for hydrogen projects, which are helpful as we are in the early stages in drafting our own Green Hydrogen Law in Venezuela. This is a key chance for Venezuela to explore alternatives to the traditional oil market and slowly move towards a more eco-friendly energy approach. #HydrogenSummit #GreenHydrogen #EnergyTransition #Venezuela #SustainableEnergy

Japan’s parliament has approved two bills to support hydrogen development and establish a legal framework for carbon capture and storage, paving the way for the government to roll out measures to incentivize projects and encourage offtake. The new legislation marks a big step forward for Japan, the world's fifth-largest CO2 emitter, to develop a hydrogen economy and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

Energy Lawyer| PHD Researcher on Green and Low-Carbon Hydrogen at the University of Eastern Finland| MSCA THERESA Doctoral Network|
🌟 Exciting Announcement! 🌟 I am delighted to share that my latest research article, co-authored with Kim Talus and Jaqueline Pinto, is now published in The Journal of World Energy Law & Business and is available in #openaccess! 📚 Title: “Realism at the end of the rainbow? An argument towards diversifying #hydrogen in EU regulation”. 🔗 You can read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/ezdkcvGG Our study provides practical insights into the EU’s decarbonization efforts. We argue that a broader range of hydrogen pathways, rather than a sole focus on #RFNBOs, is essential for rapidly developing a hydrogen market. Our findings underscore the importance of diversifying hydrogen pathways to facilitate trade, reduce fragmentation, and accelerate the growth of the hydrogen market. 🌍💡 I am grateful for the support of the THERESA MSCA Doctoral Network, The Center for Climate Change, Energy and Environmental Law - CCEEL, and Oxford University Press.
