The Industrial Deep Decarbonisation Initiative, established by the UN Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and the Clean Energy Ministerial, is a coalition of governments and companies. Among its goals, it seeks to motivate governments, which are major buyers of steel, cement and concrete for infrastructure projects, to apply sustainable procurement principles and prioritise the buying of […]
This explainer by the German Heinrich Böll Foundation provides a quick overview of green hydrogen, the way it is produced, the role it can play in the energy transition, and the main challenges.
This paper underscores the need for sustainable utilities to deliver the energy transition in lower- and middle-income countries, and provides recommendations to governments and other stakeholders.
This report challenges the prevailing narrative that green hydrogen is primarily a product for export from renewable-rich and industry-poor countries; rather, it underscores green hydrogen’s potential as a catalyst for sustainable development within developing countries that can contribute to economic growth, environmental sustainability and social progress.
This report focuses on how green hydrogen and fuel cell technologies could be initially rolled out in developing countries by presenting a series of applications that could be initially deployed in some locations and later scaled up.
This paper presents a value chain approach to identify priority areas for developing national hydrogen strategies, focussing on emerging and developing economies.
These guidelines provide advice on the development of green hydrogen clusters, which are industrial clusters that share green hydrogen and renewable energy for various purposes and can significantly contribute to industrial decarbonisation.
This paper projects the future demand for green hydrogen-based steel, and finds that though short-term demand is expected to be limited, in the long term, significant growth can be expected.
