It follows from the new report made by Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research (ISI) and published by European Commission. The report entitled The impact of industry transition on a CO2-neutral European energy system
“The transformation of the chemical sector is the primary driver of hydrogen demand in the long-term. In both main scenarios, it is projected that 1042 TWh of hydrogen will be needed as feedstock in the chemical industry”, the authors of report said.
“The demand for hydrogen as a feedstock starts to take off from 2025 with demonstration and pilot projects, leading to 50 TWh of H2 by 2030. The scaling up is expected to accelerate between 2030 and 2040, with H2 demand for feedstocks reaching 405 TWh by 2040.”
“By 2050, approximately 75% of the hydrogen demand for feedstock will be concentrated primarily in northern Europe, with the largest consumers being Germany (218 TWh), France (139 TWh), the Netherlands (139 TWh), Belgium (94 TWh), and the United Kingdom (87 TWh)”, stated in the report.
