EU renewable consumption grew in 2025, with Nordic zones leading all member zones in renewable usage share, per Renews.biz. The report does not break out a single headline percentage for EU-wide consumption, but the directional trend across 2025 is confirmed. Nordic performance reflects both high hydro availability and sustained wind output across the region.
Separately, Recharge News reports that Meta has been removed from a major global clean energy scheme following a gas procurement spree, a signal that additionality and matching requirements in voluntary clean energy frameworks are tightening. Corporate offtakers with significant gas exposure now face direct credentialing risk under these schemes.
On the supply side, the PosHYdon pilot project has begun producing green hydrogen at a North Sea gas platform, per pv magazine. The project is the first offshore green hydrogen pilot in the North Sea and sits alongside advancing waste-to-hydrogen, electrolyzer, and hydrogen corridor projects across Europe.
