Africa’s place in the emerging hydrogen economy. Hydrogen, as an energy carrier, is not new in Africa and around the world. It has a long history of uses, particularly in the metal, chemical and fertilizer industries. However, as the global pursuit of carbon-neutrality targets intensifies, the production of ‘clean’ hydrogen, has emerged as a key …
Africa is rich in all forms of renewable energy, all of which includes solar, wind, geothermal, and hydropower. This puts the continent in an advantaged position in using clean energy technologies, in the pursuit of sustainable development, energy access, energy security, and low-carbon economic growth and prosperity across the entire region. Africa has a priority …
As the global pursuits for green hydrogen advances, several countries have begun to position themselves for its demand or supply. Germany has expressed that it is willing import up to 50% of its green hydrogen needs from more competitive sources, while countries in Africa are preparing to meet this demand among others. Germany needs green …
