Hydrogen and renewables is the 14th component of the Climate Transition pillar from Portugal's Recovery Plan. The EUR 370 million budget will be used to reduce the country's energy dependence while ensuring economic growth and supporting employment in the energy sector. It is composed of the following initiatives:

Reform

The National Hydrogen Strategy (EN-H2) will create incentives to promote the gradual introduction of hydrogen, with targets for the 2030 horizon:

-10-15% injection of green hydrogen into natural gas networks

-2-5% of green hydrogen in the energy consumption of the industry sector

-1-5% of green hydrogen in the energy consumption of the road transport sector

-3-5% of green hydrogen in the energy consumption of the domestic maritime transport.

-1.5-2% of green hydrogen in the final energy consumption

-2-2.5 GW of installed capacity through electrolysis

Investments

- Hydrogen and renewable gases (EUR 185 million): the investments will support projects related to the production of gases from renewable sources

- Development of renewable electricity in the Madeira Archipelago (EUR 69 million): the objective is to prepare the electrical system to a thermoelectric power plant phase-out.

- Energy transition in the Azores (EUR 116 million): the goal is to increase energy self-sufficiency by promoting renewable energies (mainly geothermal), energy storage systems and energy services contributing to a decentralized production.

Global Oil Security Looks Shakier as Conflicts Hit 45 Million Bpd of Supply

Almost half of the world’s oil supply is produced in regions currently engaged in hot conflicts, Reuters reported this week. The situation raises questions about long-term oil supply security and the limits to diversification. The Middle East, of course, is the most obvious and most disruptive example. While oil prices on speculative markets have remained capped by trader optimism, the physical supply of the vital energy commodity has been severely compromised, leading to rationing and emergency releases from storage across the world. Meanwhile,…

MIT Uses AI to Challenge a Century-Old Process for Mass Ammonia Production

Ammonia production consumes as much as 2% of the world's energy and generates roughly 1.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, largely because the industry still relies on a century-old process powered by fossil fuels. Roughly 80% of the 200 million metric tons of ammonia produced globally every year goes into nitrogen fertilizers, with the rest used in plastics, textiles, explosives and other industrial chemicals. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have now developed a new method that uses AI and quantum-mechanical…

Equinor Targets 27% International Production Growth by 2030

Alongside boosting exploration and production offshore its home market Norway, Equinor is pursuing an international growth strategy, aiming to significantly increase its overseas oil and gas output by focusing on fewer but more lucrative regions such as the U.S., Brazil, and Angola. In recent years, Equinor has streamlined and high-graded its portfolio outside Norway, selling assets and positions in Azerbaijan and Nigeria, to name a few. But Equinor has kept and grown its U.S., Brazilian, and Angolan businesses, and plans to keep these growing…

Octopus Boss Warns UK Is Too Exposed to Global Gas Prices

Octopus boss Greg Jackson has called on Andy Burnham to deliver “urgent reform” to the energy market to protect households from “volatile” gas prices. Jackson, founder of the UK’s biggest household electricity supplier, said: “The government’s decision to take VAT off electricity and remove some of the levies from bills has helped soften the blow this winter, but bills are still too high. “Britain remains far too exposed to volatile global gas prices. The wars in Ukraine and Iran have created an unprecedented…
