Data from the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy revealed that South Korea's demand for hydrogen in the mobility sector has seen a significant increase, with consumption reaching 6,389 tons from January to September, a substantial rise from the previous year. This surge is attributed to the growing number of hydrogen buses in the country. Deputy Minister for Energy Policy, Lee Ho-hyeon, highlighted the increasing opportunities for people to engage with hydrogen products in daily life. To support the hydrogen mobility industry, the government intends to closely monitor the market and collaborate with relevant stakeholders. The Korea Petroleum Quality & Distribution Authority plans rigorous on-site inspections at hydrogen facilities nationwide to ensure market stability and consistent supply. This strategic focus on hydrogen reflects South Korea's commitment to advancing sustainable energy solutions and fostering innovation in the mobility sector.
