The EAH team had the pleasure of speaking with Susana Moreira about H2Global’s plans to transform how Europe buys green fuels.
Susana Moreira is the Executive Director and Co-Chair of H2Global Stiftung. The H2Global Foundation is dedicated to fostering international cooperation and raising awareness about the H2Global mechanism and other market-based tools among governments worldwide to support their climate goals. It is also the body that has developed and now runs a unique double-sided auction mechanism, that aims to encourage global production of green fuels by providing long term certainty to project developers and allowing customers to purchase shorter term contracts, at prices that reflect market rates. In just three years, the H2Global instrument, implemented by Hintco, has mobilized over €5.86 billion from government sources to compensate for the price difference between supply and demand.
To hear more about Susana, H2Global and how they are hoping to unlock some of the worlds largest eFuel projects, don’t miss this week’s episode!
