    On December 2, the European Commission said that the EU and Japan will strengthen cooperation on clean hydrogen development and promote the construction of
    an international hydrogen market.

    "As leaders in hydrogen technology, the EU and Japan will work together for the sustainable and economical production, trade, transport, storage, distribution and use of renewable and
    low-carbon hydrogen," the European Commission said.
    Cooperation between Europe and Japan will help create a rules-based, transparent global hydrogen market that does not distort trade and investment
    .

    This follows the signing of a Green Alliance agreement by the EU and Japan in 2021 to accelerate decarbonization efforts
    in both economies.
    Its strategic partnerships cover trade, climate change, energy, environment and sustainable finance frameworks
