EU Passes Legislative Initiative in Support
of Green Hydrogen Economy
The European
Parliament passed an historic legislative initiative committing the
legislative body of Europe to a 5-part program to usher in a renewable
energy era, a green hydrogen economy and Third Industrial Revolution. FOET
drafted the declaration and spent three years mobilizing the Parliament’s
support for the landmark legislative initiative.
The Parliamentary declaration was the first in EU Parliamentary history to
be supported by all six of Europe’s leading political parties as well as by
the Chairpersons of all the relevant Parliamentary committees and the
President of the EU Parliament.
FOET established an
unprecedented coalition of European environmental associations, renewable
energy associations, business and trade organizations and associations, and
secured the support of the Assembly of the European Regions (AER),
representing Europe’s 260 regional governments, for the Parliamentary
Declaration.
