Energy and Utilities

Hydrogen plays a vital role in decarbonizing industries, transportation, power generation, and buildings. It also supports the integration of renewable energy into the grid and enables innovative approaches such as the decarbonization of natural gas.

 

As a cross-sectoral topic, hydrogen involves over 50 CEN and CENELEC Technical Committees. The CEN-CENELEC Coordination Group on Hydrogen ensures coordinated and efficient standardization by aligning efforts with EU policies and the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance (ECH2A) Roadmap.
