Assesment of Low Carbon Hydrogen

This document presents a summary of project activities carried out in Egypt. The project aimed to assess the potential for a low-carbon hydrogen market in Egypt, strengthen the country‘s readiness for market development and promote its usage for industry decarbonization. The project supports public and private institutions in Egypt with knowledge of low carbon hydrogen production potential, current and future demand scenarios, development of business models and creation of value chains.
The project is part of the UNIDO‘s Global Programme for Hydrogen in Industry. Through its Programme, UNIDO aims to influence and guide the development of market polices, standards, skills, financing instruments, innovation and coordination between key stakeholders that play an essential role in the development of a just and sustainable hydrogen economy. Promoting tangible projects to accelerate the local uptake of green hydrogen in industries of developing countries and transition economies is a key element of the Programme.
The project in Egypt was led by UNIDO, together with two strategic partners: Italian University, Politecnico di Milano and the Environmental Compliance Office - Federation of Egyptian Industries.
