UAE Leads Green Hydrogen Revolution for Global Energy Transition
Key Ideas
  • The UAE, under the guidance of its leadership, aims to become a major low-cost producer of low-carbon hydrogen, leveraging abundant solar energy resources and natural gas reservoirs.
  • The National Hydrogen Strategy aligns with broader energy transition goals and envisions local demand for low-carbon hydrogen reaching 2.7 million tonnes per annum by 2031.
  • The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority's Green Hydrogen project, powered by solar energy, has already produced 90 tonnes of green hydrogen, reducing carbon emissions by 490 tonnes.
  • With a focus on energy security and sustainability, the UAE is set to play a significant role in achieving global carbon neutrality goals through innovative green hydrogen initiatives.
The UAE is making significant strides in green hydrogen production to solidify its position as a global leader in sustainable energy. Backed by the visionary leadership of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the country's ambitious strategy aims to establish itself as a top producer of low-carbon hydrogen at a competitive cost. Leveraging its abundant solar energy resources and natural gas reservoirs, the UAE is attracting global investments in clean energy and aims to capture 25% of the global hydrogen market by 2030. The National Hydrogen Strategy integrates hydrogen as a core energy source, aligning with the UAE's broader ESG and carbon-neutral goals. The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority's Green Hydrogen project, powered by solar energy, is a pioneering initiative in the MENA region, contributing to the country's target of achieving global leadership in green energy. With a strong emphasis on reducing carbon emissions and enhancing energy efficiency, the UAE is driving the transition towards clean energy, positioning itself as a key player in global efforts to combat climate change and achieve carbon neutrality.
