"According to the study for the National Strategy Plan, the annual turnover of the hydrogen supply chain is estimated to reach, in Greece, 10 billion euros in 2050, leading to the development of the Hydrogen Economy," said the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport Christos Staikouras at the Hydrogen Conference: The Hydrogen Economy: Prospects, Possibilities and Opportunities for Greece.

According to Mr. Staikouras, "our country has the ideal conditions for the production of the new fuel, i.e. wind and solar fields, which can provide it with the energy lead in Europe (Crete - creation of Hydrogen Valleys)" . As he pointed out, according to research, "hydrogen can cover 20% - 50% of energy demand in transport, and 5% - 20% in European industry by 2050". He even added that in Greece, the development of green hydrogen is expected to be directed, as a matter of priority, to the heavy road transport and aviation sectors.

As Mr. Staikouras announced, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment and Energy, have issued a Joint Ministerial Decision, which describes the procedures for licensing and operating hydrogen stations and added that the secondary legislation will be supplemented by a second Joint Ministerial Decision which will concern the terms and conditions, as well as the safety specifications for the start of operation of hydrogen repair and maintenance workshops, as well as the relevant Presidential Decree for the start of the profession of maintenance and repair technician for vehicles powered by hydrogen.

Finally, according to the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, the goal is to create at least 26 hydrogen filling stations in our country by 2030. As he said, this is an effort in which there will be competence of several Ministries, such as the National Economy and Finance, the Interior, the Environment and Energy, Shipping and Infrastructure and Transport, as well as organizations such as AADE. "This proves how complex, but at the same time how important, the project is to institutionalize hydrogen as a transport fuel," he concluded.
