The Federal Government of Nigeria has revealed plans to leverage the global hydrogen market, valued at $130 billion, by collaborating with Germany to enhance the country's green energy sector. Vice-President Shettima emphasized the necessity of transitioning from fossil fuels to green energy for sustainable growth. The partnership aims to align Nigeria's hydrogen market with renewable energy objectives and the global energy transition plan. Shettima expressed confidence that Nigeria's success in hydrogen development could lead to positive impacts across the African continent. Germany's Hydrogen Commissioner, Mr Till Mansmann, highlighted the importance of cooperation with Nigeria and institutions like the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, in achieving energy transformation objectives. Mansmann praised Nigeria's potential in green energy, particularly hydrogen production, and emphasized the crucial role of universities in innovation and talent development.
