We will try to address some of these challenges from a legal perspective. An example of a specific European legal system is the Industrial Emissions Directive or the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive6. This legal system, which must be implemented in a binding manner by all Member States, provides for the establishment of `rules for the integrated prevention and control of pollution from industrial activities` and `to prevent or, where this is not possible, to reduce emissions to air, water and land and to prevent the generation of waste in order to achieve a high level of protection of the environment as a whole`. A noble and desirable objective in itself, it has opted for the taxonomy of all industrial activities submitted to it, and only “research activities, development activities or experimentation with new products and processes”. As a result of this taxonomy, the “production of inorganic chemicals, such as (…) Hydrogen”7 is subject to the Industrial Emissions Directive whenever it is “on an industrial scale”. While this example is illustrative, it allows us to shed light on how legal systems are fighting innovation, especially as they move towards a greener energy system as a whole. Lawmakers and regulators need to consider the specifics of regulating innovation and rush to avoid taxonomy as a panacea for all the diseases and pains they find in their daily activities. States must swiftly adopt innovation-friendly framework conditions that allow the target set in the 2nd Renewable Energy Directive of a full two-year approval period for power plants to also apply to hydrogen projects at supply level.
