In this paper we explore the role of hydrogen in the energy transition, including its potential, recent achievements, and challenges to its deployment. We also offer recommendations to ensure that the proper conditions are developed to accelerate the deployment of hydrogen technologies, with the support of policymakers, the private sector, and society.
The Hydrogen: Closing the Cost Gap report, developed with the analytical support of McKinsey & Co, highlights that, despite a challenging environment for clean hydrogen, the effective implementation of existing policies could support uptake of ~8 Mt p.a. of clean hydrogen across the European Union, the United States and East Asia by 2030.
Hydrogen Insights 2024 offers the Hydrogen Council’s latest perspective on the industry’s evolution. It highlights key trends from the past four years and shares the latest data on global hydrogen project deployment across the value chain.
Africa enjoys world-class renewable resources, with capacity factors up to 69% for wind power and 25% for solar power, as well as excellent geothermal and hydro resources, coupled with abundant land area.
