UAE targets 25% of hydrogen market share

The United Arab Emirates has launched its Hydrogen Leadership Roadmap, with the stated aim of capturing a 25% market share.

The UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MOEI) said it intended to position the state as a “leader” in low carbon production, of both green and blue hydrogen.

Minister Suhail Al Mazrouei said, though, that green hydrogen production “remains in its infancy, requiring an international collaboration to accelerate its development”. Green hydrogen, that is produced from renewable sources, will “play a significant role in UAE’s domestic strategy to meet the UAE 2050 Net-Zero goals and which will also assist globally by exporting hydrogen”, he said.
