Legal Frameworks for Europe's Hydrogen Future - A Conversation with Jaqueline Pinto
<p>In this episode of Green Transitions, Professor <strong>BradleyLadewig</strong> speaks with <strong>Jaqueline Pinto</strong>, aleading legal expert in European hydrogen policy and regulation.</p><p>Jaqueline is a <strong>lawyer and researcher specialising in energy regulation and the legal dimensions of the hydrogen economy</strong>. She focuses on the development of <strong>hydrogen valleys</strong>—regional ecosystems that integrate production, storage, distribution, and end-use of renewable hydrogen across borders—and explores how EU and national legal frameworks can accelerate or hinder their growth. Herwork contributes to shaping <strong>policy instruments, certification schemes, and cross-border cooperation models</strong> that underpin the emerging hydrogen market.</p><p>During the discussion, Brad and Jaqueline explore:</p><ul><li>⚖️ The <strong>regulatorylandscape for hydrogen in Europe</strong>, including the evolving EU directives, delegated acts, and national implementation pathways;</li><li>🌍 How <strong>hydrogen valleys</strong> can act as testbeds for integrated, multi-sector energy systems and cross-border governance;</li><li>🧭 The <strong>legal challenges of defining renewable hydrogen</strong>, ensuring traceability, and aligning withRED III and the EU taxonomy;</li><li>🤝 The importance of <strong>interdisciplinary collaboration</strong>between lawyers, engineers, and policymakers to ensure that Europe’s hydrogen transition is both technically feasible and legally robust.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This episode offers a rare and insightful look at how law and policy shape the real-world deployment of hydrogen projects — from local valleys to the European market scale.</p><p>🎧 Tune in to learn how Europe’s legal architecture is being built to support a decarbonised, hydrogen-based future. </p>
