Together with NOW GmbH and the Project Management Organisation Jülich, the Federal Ministry of Digital and Transport (BMDV) is preparing a funding call for the production of hydrogen for the transport sector.

The funding call is scheduled to be published in January 2023 as part of the Market Activation Guideline of the National Innovation Programme Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology (NIP II).

The programme provides funding for electrolysis plants for the production of hydrogen for the transport sector using electricity from renewable energy sources. Funding is available for up to 45% of the capital expenditure for the construction of electrolysis plants for the production of hydrogen for the transport sector.

Applications for funding are expected to be possible until 31 March 2023. Successful projects are to be approved in the same year. The BMDV is allocating a total of €80 million to support the market ramp-up of electrolysis plants.

Further information will be published together with the call for funding. Contact the Renewable Fuels Team at NOW GmbH ().
