Projects supplying hydrogen to the EU will have to prove compliance with delegated acts criteria to qualify as RFNBOs
Certifhy seeks EU approval for certification scheme
If approved, certificates will be a tool for producers to prove hydrogen and its derivatives were produced in compliance with EU criteria
EU-backed hydrogen certification initiative Certifhy has submitted its voluntary scheme for renewable fuel of non-biological origin (RFNBO) certification for approval by the European Commission. If granted, the certificates “will be an essential tool for economic operators willing to prove that hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives have been produced in compliance with EU [Renewable Energy Directive 2: Red 2] and Red 2 delegated acts criteria”, Certifhy says. “With this new major milestone for Certifhy, we are rapidly progressing towards our ambition of becoming a major pure player in the field of hydrogen and e-fuels certification,” says Matthieu Boisson, Certifhy’s project coordinator. “
