European energy coalition calls for €1B natural hydrogen exploration programme

A coalition of over 30 European energy firms, led by natural hydrogen exploration company Mantle8, has urged European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to support a €1 billion exploration programme for natural hydrogen. The letter, presented at European Hydrogen Week in Brussels, warns that Europe risks falling behind the US, Australia and other regions in natural hydrogen exploration.

The coalition seeks clearer EU regulations, with priorities including explicit recognition of natural hydrogen in the 2026 Energy Union package and a European Natural Hydrogen Initiative.
