In this analysis, REPowerEU is placed within the context of EU’s strategic planning during the past 22 years, the focus of this research being on the transition to a hydrogen economy. The research reviews some challenges that may affect the implementation of REPowerEU and proposes their classification into three categories depending on their nature. The conclusions provide some solutions for overcoming these challenges and a couple of recommendations for Romania as a member of the European Union.
