<H1>RED III EP Plenary Vote: Divorcing green hydrogen from green electricity
will only worsen the energy crisis</H1>
<P>The Plenary vote on the 14th of September 2022 covered the revision of the
Renewable Energy Directive (RED III). The vote fails to keep the EU in line to
reach its ambitious climate goals and worsens the impacts of the current energy
crisis. Promoting renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs i.e.,
hydrogen and its derivatives) without temporal correlation to renewable
electricity generation leads only to increased emissions and heftier bills for
everyday consumers.</P>
