International Green Hydrogen Report 2022

The desires surrounding the use of hydrogen are growing – and with them the legal questions that arise in this context. For these are as diverse as the usability of hydrogen.

A successful energy transition can only be achieved by combining security of supply, affordability and environmental compatibility with innovative climate projection. This requires an alternative option to the fossil fuels that are still predominantly used at present.

Hydrogen has a key role to play in the energy transition. This is because, in addition to numerous other advantages as a renewable energy carrier, it makes it possible to significantly reduce CO2 emissions.

In our latest International Green Hydrogen Report, we highlight some of the key legal areas surrounding hydrogen including regulation, contracts, intellectual property and cooperation as well as provide information on the latest developments in numerous countries.

Our hydrogen-focused team has already successfully supported and strategically advised various projects on the practical use of hydrogen technology. We generally work in cross-jurisdictional teams and cooperate with technical consulting where necessary. Following this approach, we can support you as a strong and competent legal adviser in the implementation phase that has now begun and bring an optimised change in the use of energy sources together with you.

If you have any questions, please get in touch with Sibylle Weiler, Head of International Green Hydrogen Group at Bird & Bird.
