Fraunhofer Paper on Ukrainian Hydrogen Export Potential: "Opportunities and Challenges in the Light of the Ongoing War"
Frauenhofer Study: "Ukrainian Hydrogen Export Potential: Opportunities and Challenges in the Light of the Ongoing War": The working paper examines the opportunities and challenges for Ukraine in the field of hydrogen and power-to-x products against the backdrop of the ongoing war. Despite the conflict, the EU remains interested in Ukraine as a potential future hydrogen supplier, but Ukraine must comply with European standards and legislation for hydrogen exports. Green steel could become an important export product, and Ukraine has built infrastructure to export hydrogen and power-to-X products to Western Europe. However, some energy infrastructure and land for potential renewable energy deployment is currently occupied by the Russian military, and the uncertain duration and outcome of the war increases investment risks. Large-scale hydrogen production in Ukraine may be limited due to water scarcity and competing agricultural water uses, which could lead to higher household energy costs.
