  • The initiatives cover key areas like permits, workforce development, logistics, and local content to drive private sector investment and prepare the national ecosystem for green hydrogen projects.
  • Efforts include enhancing local firm capacity, upskilling the workforce, streamlining regulatory processes, optimizing logistics, and promoting local business participation in the hydrogen value chain.
  • By implementing these initiatives, Oman aims to become a global leader in green hydrogen, meeting its 2030 targets and contributing to the clean energy transition.
Hydrom, in partnership with the Oman Vision 2040 unit and the Ministry of Energy and Minerals, has successfully concluded a two-week Ecosystem Readiness Lab in Muscat, Oman. The lab resulted in the identification of 26 key initiatives aimed at achieving Oman's 2030 green hydrogen production targets. These initiatives, spanning across multiple sectors like permits, workforce development, logistics, and local content, are set to be submitted for approval following a final review from the overseeing steering committee. The focus areas of these initiatives include enhancing local firm capacity, upskilling the national workforce for green hydrogen projects, streamlining regulatory processes through a 'single permit' system, optimizing logistical support for hydrogen production and export, and promoting the participation of local businesses in the green hydrogen value chain. Ahmed Ibrahim Al Abri, from Hydrom, emphasized the significance of these initiatives in establishing a robust and sustainable green hydrogen ecosystem in Oman. The collaborative effort between public and private sectors is seen as a crucial step towards achieving long-term success and positioning Oman as a leader in the global green energy transition. Furthermore, the initiatives aim to drive private sector investment, foster entrepreneurial innovation, and ensure that Oman is well-prepared to capitalize on the emerging opportunities in the global green energy market. By implementing these initiatives, Oman is poised to solidify its position as a leader in green hydrogen production and export, showcasing its commitment to sustainability, economic diversification, and innovation. The nation's progress in meeting its 2030 green hydrogen targets will not only drive domestic growth but also contribute significantly to the global clean energy transition.
