N2 - South Africa has significant potential for green hydrogen, and the government is now positioning itself for the transition to an economy based on green hydrogen utilization. However, some challenges require proper attention and addressable solutions to realize such an economy. For green hydrogen to be successful, it is necessary to have widespread and coordinated support throughout the whole value chain. The paper assesses future development, potential, pace, and implications for an environmentally friendly, energy-independent future with highlight in some of these areas.
