Foundational Process
On 23 January 2024, 36 infrastructure operators met for the first time to discuss the ENNOH statutes and kick-off the ENNOH foundational process. These operators are Hydrogen PCI project promoters, European Hydrogen Backbone initiative members, and other designated operators. Two Member States (MT, CY) joined later. All future HTNOs are welcome to join the foundation process. The operators are currently working to successfully set up ENNOH whilst meeting the deadlines and obligations set in the H2/Decarbonised Gas Regulation, ensuring a transparent, inclusive and open process.
ENNOH shall consist of Hydrogen Transmission Network Operators or, in those Member States where HTNOs are not present yet, by an entity designated by the Member States
