South Africa could play indispensable role in the global hydrogen value chain, says Mistra's Netshitenzhe
- Speakers participating in the Mapungubwe Institute for Strategic Reflection's (Mistra's) ninth yearly platinum group metals (PGM) roundtable, on November 27, agreed that South Africa has potential to become a leading player in the hydrogen and fuel cell industry.
The article from Engineering News discusses how South Africa could play a pivotal role in the global hydrogen value chain, as highlighted by Joel Netshitenzhe, the executive director of the Mapungubwe Institute for Strategic Reflection (Mistra). Netshitenzhe emphasized that South Africa's potential lies in its abundant renewable energy resources, particularly solar and wind, which are crucial for green hydrogen production. He pointed out that the country's strategic location, existing industrial capabilities, and the potential for developing a hydrogen economy could position it as a key player in both the production and export of green hydrogen. Furthermore, he stressed the importance of policy frameworks, infrastructure development, and international collaboration to harness this opportunity effectively. The article also touches on the need for South Africa to address its energy transition challenges, including the shift from coal to cleaner energy sources, to fully capitalize on the hydrogen market.
