Middle Eastern countries possess abundant renewable energy resources and low-cost natural gas, creating the opportunity for them to lead in green and blue hydrogen production. In addition, the Middle East’s strategic location and existing infrastructure make it well-suited to supplying hydrogen to potential high-demand regions such as Europe and Asia. However, to capitalise on the region's competitive advantages, investment in hydrogen infrastructure, including pipelines, terminals, and storage facilities, needs to increase to ensure reliable supply chains to global markets. As Middle Eastern countries focus on developing a comprehensive hydrogen infrastructure, to what extent can the region reshape hydrogen trade dynamics and accelerate global efforts towards a sustainable, low-carbon future?
Attendee insights:
Learn about the regional low-carbon hydrogen opportunities and prospects for export markets, as well as the role of the Middle East in the global hydrogen supply chain and its implications for regional economic development and energy security.
