Re: Fusion Fuel Green plc (the “Company”)

Dear Directors,

1. Basis of Opinion

1.1 We have acted as Irish legal counsel to the Company, a public limited company organised under the laws of Ireland with registration number 669283 in connection with the preparation of a registration statement on Form F-3 (the “Registration Statement”) and the prospectus contained therein filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act 1933, as amended (the “Act”), on 6 February 2024 and amended on or about the date hereof relating to the proposed offer and sale of up to 46,852,518 of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares of $0.0001 each in the capital of the Company (the “Shares”), such Shares issuable by the Company upon the conversion of convertible notes (the “Notes”) and the exercise of warrants (the “Warrants”) to be issued by the Company pursuant to a securities subscription agreement dated 21 November 2023 by and among the Company and the selling shareholders party thereto (the “Securities Subscription Agreement”), and which Shares the Company agreed to register with the SEC pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated 21 November 2023 by and among the Company and the subscribers party thereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The matters described in this paragraph are hereinafter referred to as the “Transaction”.

1.2 This Opinion is solely for the benefit of the addressee of this Opinion and may not be relied upon, used, transmitted, referred to, quoted from, circulated, copied, filed with any governmental agency or authority, disseminated or disclosed by or to any other person or entity for any purpose(s) without our prior written consent.

In particular, we express no opinion on the laws of the European Union as they affect any jurisdiction other than Ireland.

(a) a corporate certificate dated 8 March 2024, executed by the secretary of the Company (the “Corporate Certificate”);

(d) a copy of the Securities Subscription Agreement; and

4. Qualifications

The opinions set out in this Opinion are subject to the following reservations:

Enforcement and binding effect

4.1 The description of obligations in this Opinion as “enforceable” refers to the legal character of the obligations assumed by the relevant party under the relevant instrument. It implies no more than the obligations are of a character which the laws of Ireland recognise and will in certain circumstances enforce. In particular, it does not mean or imply that the relevant instrument will be enforced in all circumstances in accordance with its terms or by or against third parties or that any particular remedy will be available. In particular (without limiting the foregoing):

6

(a) the binding effect and enforceability of the obligations of the Company contemplated under any of the Shares may be limited by liquidation, insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, court protection, examinership, moratoria, reorganisation, reconstruction, company voluntary arrangements, fraud of creditors, fraudulent preference of creditors or similar laws whether in Ireland or elsewhere affecting creditors’ rights generally;

(b) the binding effect and enforceability of the obligations of the Company under any of the Shares may also be limited as a result of the provisions of the laws of Ireland applicable to contracts held to have become frustrated by events happening after their execution, and any breach of the terms of any document by the party seeking to enforce such document;

(c) enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity. In particular, equitable remedies are not available where damages are considered to be an adequate remedy; the remedy of specific performance is discretionary and will not normally be ordered in respect of a monetary obligation; and injunctions are granted only on a discretionary basis and accordingly we express no opinion on such matters;

(d) claims may become barred under the Statute of Limitations 1957 or may be or become subject to the defence of set-off or counterclaim;

(e) enforcement will be subject to netting, claims and attachment and any other rights of another party to a contract; and

(f) enforcement may be limited by reason of fraud.

4.2 Where any obligations of any person are to be performed in jurisdictions outside Ireland, such obligations may not be enforceable under Irish law to the extent that performance thereof would be illegal under the laws of any such jurisdiction or contrary to public policy under the laws of any such jurisdiction and an Irish court may take into account the law of the place of performance in relation to the manner of performance and to the steps to be taken in the event of defective performance.

4.3 Where a judgment creditor seeks to enforce his judgment, he can only do so in accordance with the applicable rules of Irish courts. The making of an execution order against particular assets, such as a charging order over land or a beneficial interest therein or most types of investment or a third party debt order over a bank account or certain other debts, is a matter for the Court’s discretion.

General Matters

4.4 A determination or a certificate as to any matter provided for in the Securities Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement may be held by an Irish court not to be final, conclusive or binding if such determination or certificate could be shown to have an unreasonable, incorrect or arbitrary basis or not to have been given or made in good faith.

4.5 Where a party to the Securities Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement is vested with a discretion or may determine a matter in its opinion, Irish law may require that such discretion is exercised reasonably or that such opinion is based upon reasonable grounds.

7

4.6 A particular course of dealing among the parties or an oral amendment, variation or waiver may result in an Irish court finding that the terms of the Securities Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement have been amended, varied or waived even if such course of dealing or oral amendment, variation or waiver is not reflected in writing among the parties.

4.7 The effectiveness of any provisions of the Securities Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement excusing a party from a liability or duty otherwise owed are limited by Irish law, particularly in relation to a fundamental breach of the contract.

4.8 We express no opinion as to any obligation which the Securities Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement may purport to establish in favour of any person who is not a party thereto.

4.9 Any provision of the Securities Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement which constitutes, or purports to constitute, a restriction on the exercise of any statutory power by any party thereto or any other person may be ineffective.

4.10 To the extent that any matter is expressly to be determined by future agreement or negotiation, the relevant provision may be unenforceable or void for uncertainty.

Due Diligence and Searches

4.11 Other than the Searches, we have not conducted any other searches whatsoever. We have conducted no due diligence nor have we reviewed or considered the regulatory status or compliance of the Company or any other person or body corporate. We have not conducted any due diligence on any person or body corporate, and in particular have not considered any due diligence on any of the parties to, or direct or indirect beneficiaries of, the Securities Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement or enquired or investigated as to whether they hold appropriate licenses or approvals.

Yours faithfully,
