Ngokusho kwesitatimende esivela kwiKhomishini yaseYurophu, uMthetho wokuqala ovumelayo uchaza izimo ezidingekayo ukuze i-hydrogen, amafutha asekelwe ku-hydrogen noma ezinye izithwali zamandla zihlukaniswe njengamafutha avuselelekayo angewona awemvelo (RFNBO). Lo mthethosivivinywa ucacisa isimiso "sokwengeza" se-hydrogen esibekwe ku-EU Renewable Energy Directive, okusho ukuthi amaseli kagesi akhiqiza i-hydrogen kumele axhunywe ekukhiqizweni kukagesi okusha ovuselelekayo. Lesi simiso sokwengeza manje sichazwa ngokuthi "amaphrojekthi wamandla avuselelekayo aqala ukusebenza kungakabi yizinyanga ezingu-36 ngaphambi kwezikhungo ezikhiqiza i-hydrogen kanye nezinto eziphuma kuyo". Lesi simiso sihlose ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ukukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen evuselelekayo kukhuthaza ukwanda kwenani lamandla avuselelekayo atholakala kugridi uma kuqhathaniswa nalokho osekukhona kakade. Ngale ndlela, ukukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen kuzosekela ukususwa kwe-carbonization futhi kuhambisane nemizamo yokufaka ugesi, ngenkathi kugwema ukufaka ingcindezi ekukhiqizweni kukagesi.
IKhomishini yaseYurophu ilindele ukuthi isidingo sikagesi sokukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen sikhuphuke ngo-2030 ngokufakwa okukhulu kwamaseli amakhulu e-electrolytic. Ukuze kufezwe isifiso se-REPowerEU sokukhiqiza amathani ayizigidi eziyi-10 kaphethiloli ovuselelekayo emithonjeni engeyona eyezinto eziphilayo ngo-2030, i-EU izodinga cishe ama-TWh angu-500 kagesi ovuselelekayo, okulingana no-14% wamandla asetshenziswa yi-EU ngaleso sikhathi. Lo mgomo ubonakala esiphakamisweni sekhomishini sokuphakamisa umgomo wamandla avuselelekayo ube ngu-45% ngo-2030.
UMthetho wokuqala ovumelayo uphinde uveze izindlela ezahlukene abakhiqizi abangabonisa ngazo ukuthi ugesi ovuselelekayo osetshenziselwa ukukhiqiza i-hydrogen uhambisana nomthetho wokwengezwa. Uphinde wethule amazinga aklanyelwe ukuqinisekisa ukuthi i-hydrogen evuselelekayo ikhiqizwa kuphela lapho futhi lapho kukhona amandla avuselelekayo anele (okubizwa ngokuthi ukubaluleka kwesikhathi kanye nendawo). Ukuze kucatshangelwe izibopho zokutshalwa kwezimali ezikhona kanye nokuvumela umkhakha ukuthi uzivumelanise nohlaka olusha, imithetho izofakwa kancane kancane futhi iklanyelwe ukuba ibe lukhuni ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.
Umthethosivivinywa wokugunyazwa kwe-European Union ngonyaka odlule wawudinga ukuhlangana kwehora phakathi kokuhlinzekwa kukagesi ovuselelekayo nokusetshenziswa kwawo, okusho ukuthi abakhiqizi kuzodingeka bafakazele njalo ngehora ukuthi ugesi osetshenziswa emaseli abo uvela emithonjeni emisha evuselelekayo.
IPhalamende laseYurophu lenqabe ukuxhumana okuphikisanayo ngehora ngoSepthemba 2022 ngemuva kokuba inhlangano yezohwebo lwe-EU Hydrogen kanye nemboni ye-hydrogen, eholwa yi-Council for Renewable Hydrogen Energy, ithe ayisasebenzi futhi izonyusa izindleko ze-hydrogen eluhlaza ze-EU.
Kulokhu, umthethosivivinywa wokugunyazwa kwekhomishini ubeka engcupheni lezi zikhundla ezimbili: abakhiqizi be-hydrogen bazokwazi ukufanisa ukukhiqizwa kwabo kwe-hydrogen namandla avuselelekayo ababhalisele wona njalo ngenyanga kuze kube uJanuwari 1, 2030, bese kuthi ngemva kwalokho bamukele izixhumanisi zamahora kuphela. Ngaphezu kwalokho, lo mthetho ubeka isigaba sokuguquka, okuvumela amaphrojekthi e-hydrogen aluhlaza asebenza ekupheleni kuka-2027 ukuthi akhululwe enkokhelweni yokwengezwa kuze kube u-2038. Lesi sikhathi sokuguquka sihambisana nesikhathi lapho iseli likhula futhi lingena emakethe. Kodwa-ke, kusukela mhla lu-1 kuJulayi 2027, amazwe angamalungu anenketho yokwethula imithetho eqinile yokuncika esikhathini.
Ngokuphathelene nokubaluleka kwendawo, uMthetho uthi izitshalo zamandla avuselelekayo namaseli kagesi akhiqiza i-hydrogen abekwa endaweni efanayo yethenda, echazwa njengendawo enkulu kunazo zonke (ngokuvamile umngcele kazwelonke) lapho abahlanganyeli bemakethe bengashintshanisa khona amandla ngaphandle kokwabiwa kwamandla. IKhomishini ithe lokhu kwakuwukuqinisekisa ukuthi akukho ukuminyana kwegridi phakathi kwamaseli akhiqiza i-hydrogen evuselelekayo namayunithi kagesi avuselelekayo, nokuthi kufanelekile ukufuna ukuthi womabili amayunithi abe sendaweni efanayo yethenda. Imithetho efanayo iyasebenza ku-hydrogen eluhlaza engeniswa e-EU futhi isetshenziswe ngohlelo lokuqinisekisa.
