"We have confirmed that Ukraine is ready to participate in the development of a joint plan with Europe for decarbonisation through the use of the hydrogen economy to achieve climate neutrality of the continent", said Yaroslav Demchenkov.
During the visit of the Ukrainian delegation led by Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine Olha Stefanishyna to Brussels on May 17-21, 2021, Deputy Minister for European Integration Yaroslav Demchenkov held a series of meetings with representatives of EU institutions, many of which concerned cooperation in the field of hydrogen energy.
In particular, the participants discussed involvement of international partners in the development and implementation of pilot projects, as well as the assessment of the potential of gas transmission system of Ukraine for the transportation of a combination of hydrogen and natural gas.
"Our partners believe that one of the largest projects to which we can join more actively is the Blue Danube. This is a large integrated project to create a supply chain of "green" hydrogen. There is a potential for cooperation between Ukraine and Romania, Bulgaria and other Danube countries," said the Deputy Minister.
