This comes in the wake of the growing demand for clean energy in local markets, which strengthens the UAE's global leading role in spearheading decarbonisation across various vital industries, Al Tayer said in an op-ed, published Friday.
"Green hydrogen is a promising and environmentally-friendly source of energy. It is usually produced by water electrolysis. Green hydrogen represents one of the pillars of a sustainable future that depends on accelerating the transition to carbon neutrality to support a green economy. Its objectives are to develop the green mobility sector and reduce carbon emissions from large-scale industries that produce large amounts of carbon, such as trucks, trains, ships and airplanes, as well as generating electricity. This means it can help reduce CO2 emissions around the world,” Al Tayer said.
"The UAE is the first country in the Middle East and North Africa which has taken major steps to produce hydrogen using clean energy. This supports its strategy to build an economy based on renewable energy sources, which helps increase foreign investments and scale up high-end partnerships. This comes in the wake of the growing demand for clean energy in local markets, which strengthens the UAE's global leading role in spearheading decarbonisation across various vital industries,” Al Tayer added.
