The Geopolitics of the Energy Transformation: The Hydrogen Factor

 

Policy Considerations

• Hydrogen is part of a much bigger energy transition picture, and its development and deployment strategies should not be pursued in isolation.

• Setting the right priorities for hydrogen use will be essential for its rapid scale-up and long-term contribution to decarbonisation efforts.

 • International co-operation will be necessary to devise a transparent hydrogen market with coherent standards and norms that contribute to climate change efforts meaningfully.

• Supporting the advancement of renewable energy and green hydrogen in developing countries is critical for decarbonising the energy system and can contribute to global equity and stability.

• Geopolitical risks can be mitigated by reducing unnecessary energy consumption across many final uses.

 • Policy makers should consider broader impacts of hydrogen development on sustainable development to ensure positive, long-lasting outcomes.
