The Green Deal Industrial Plan: opportunities and challenges for the green hydrogen and electricity storage sectors - Publication by the Energy and Climate Chair

Each academic year, the students of the course ‘European Energy, Climate Governance and the Green Deal’, are challenged to write a contribution for a total of ten coaches working in the field of EU energy and climate policies, either in Brussels or elsewhere in or around the EU.

Out of these ten papers, two contributions were selected for publication, on the basis of their quality and policy-relevance. The papers are bundled in a thematic issue on the EU Green Deal Industrial plan.

This publication includes the following papers:

  1. "The Net-Zero Industry Act: a key driver for EU industrial leadership in green hydrogen?" By Blanca Méndez Egea and Soeren Schneider
  2. "The Energy Storage Sector: Perspectives on the IRA and the EU Green Deal Industrial Plan"
    By Luca Izzo, Olivier Levy and Damien Lopopolo

During the preparation of this paper, the students discussed the topic with their coaches: Miguel Muñoz (Head of Climate Policies and Alliances at Iberdrola) for Blanca Méndez Egea and Soeren Schneider and Patrick Clerens (Secretary General at the European Association for Storage of Energy, EASE) for Luca Izzo, Olivier Levy and Damien Lopopolo.
