Hydrogen Fact Sheet – North African Countries

All the North African countries in scope (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt and Mauretania) see the option of exporting green hydrogen or derivatives based on RES-E. However, their current electricity systems show high specific CO2-emissions due to high shares of coal or natural gasfired electricity

Hydrogen fact sheet – Argentina

Argentina offers some of the largest potentials for low costs hydrogen based on renewable electricity in the world. This is due to high average wind speeds and in addition high solar irradiation throughout large areas of the country. However, transport distances to major offtake regions such as Euro
