Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--As many countries and heavy industries decarbonize, demand for green hydrogen is growing rapidly. The global market for hydrogen is expected to rise in the next 10 to 20 years and quantifies chances for the six current member countries of the Africa Green Hydrogen Alliance (South Africa, Kenya, Mauritania, Egypt, Mauritania, Namibia, and Morocco).
Mauritania is being competitive in both local and international markets as this country is enriched with outstanding solar and wind resources, ample space, and a well-chosen geographical position. Furthermore, it is estimated that Namibia is well positioned to produce low-cost green hydrogen and ammonia due to various major developments taking off in domestic and international markets. The key project includes the 3-gigawatt Luderitz (Tsau Khaeb) project, valued at US$9.4 billion.

Similarly, South Africa also is well placed to become a green hydrogen economy with a key project underway in Coega at the Nelson Mandela Port. Subscribers can click here for more details.
