The urgent need for a sustainable energy transition is emphasized as the combustion of fossil fuels continues to contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. To address this, a combination of renewable energy resources, storage assets, energy efficiency, and decarbonization strategies must be implemented globally. Canada and Malaysia are integrating hydrogen into their national plans to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Canada's Hydrogen Strategy aims to have hydrogen supply up to 30% of end-use energy, while Malaysia has developed a Hydrogen Technology and Economy Roadmap to become a leading hydrogen economy by 2050. Remote communities in both countries, facing challenges like fossil fuel dependence and lack of grid infrastructure, are exploring renewable energy projects and hydrogen solutions. For example, Canada's remote communities are focusing on reducing diesel consumption by integrating hydrogen production through electrolysis, while Malaysia's Sarawak government is working towards developing a hydrogen-based economy. These initiatives highlight the potential of hydrogen in advancing the sustainable energy transition in remote communities, offering a pathway to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote energy diversity.
