What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Netherlands updated its National Energy System Plan, which affects the targets for gaseous hydrogen demand within the country. The plan reduced the central estimate for 2040 gaseous hydrogen demand from 460 petajoules to 200 petajoules, marking a reduction of approximately 57% since the 2023 plan.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

This revision signals a major pivot in the country's long-term energy strategy regarding hydrogen. The reduced targets indicate that applications are limited, with hydrogen largely phased out of dispatchable electricity generation and specific industrial heat applications.
