Africa's burgeoning hydrogen reserves have the potential to replicate the transformative economic impact of past oil discoveries while offering a more sustainable pathway to development. Similar to oil, hydrogen could catalyze industrialization, job creation, and increased geopolitical influence. However, unlike oil, hydrogen presents an opportunity for Africa to leapfrog traditional fossil fuel-based economies and establish itself as a global leader in clean energy. By carefully managing resource exploitation, prioritizing local benefits, and investing in sustainable infrastructure, Africa can harness the full potential of hydrogen to achieve inclusive and equitable growth. Join us at #SASFI 2024 next week Wednesday, July 24, 2024, at the Four Seasons The Westcliff, Johannesburg for a deep dive into de-risking and accelerating hydrogen investment in Africa.
