The Federal government of Nigeria has taken significant steps towards harnessing the potential of hydrogen production in the country. The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Ekperikpe Ekpo, emphasized the country's abundant natural resources and strategic position for industrial transformation in the clean energy sector. The development of a national hydrogen policy is aimed at integrating hydrogen into Nigeria's energy mix and establishing the country as a key player in the global hydrogen economy. The policy is expected to bring economic benefits like revenue diversification, job creation, investment attraction, and industrial growth, ultimately boosting economic development. Additionally, the focus on hydrogen aligns with Nigeria's decarbonisation goals and contributes to global climate change mitigation efforts. The collaboration among stakeholders, including government officials and partners like GIZ, underscores the importance of developing a robust hydrogen industry in Nigeria, leveraging existing infrastructure for hydrogen production and distribution. This initiative not only supports economic advancement but also emphasizes environmental sustainability and infrastructural development for energy storage, fuel cells, and transportation systems.
