UNIDO Hydrogen Team
With its multi-decade track record, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) has created a unique institutional knowledge base on identifying and tackling a range of obstacles developing countries face on their path towards sustainable industrialization. The Organization has a distinct UN mandate to promote net-zero industrial development and successfully collaborates with a wide range of partners globally.
Its extensive expertise and experience in providing technical support to developing countries position UNIDO as a strategic player in the global promotion of hydrogen applications in industry.
