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.
This database presents the current status, policy barriers, and key innovations for electrification of mobility, heating and cooling, and hydrogen production.
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.
This report provides background information and guidance on the types of behavioural changes needed to advance access to clean cooking, and ways to promote these changes.
This blog and inforgraphic present the results of a World Bank study on the decision-making journey towards adopting and using clean cooking solutions in Rwanda, Madagascar and Ghana.
This study investigated (1) What marketing messages are effective at increasing willingness to pay for a more efficient stove in rural Uganda; (2) What sales offers (e.g., free trial and time payments) increases willingness to pay and uptake; (3) What effects does ownership of an efficient stove have on the use of old and new […]
This is a cam[paign strategy to engender behavioural change and the increased uptake of clean cooking solutions in Kenya.
