As the world moves towards a more sustainable and cleaner energy future, green hydrogen has emerged as a promising solution to decarbonize various industries and power grids. In Chile, the prospect of creating a green hydrogen valley holds immense potential for both the environment and local communities.

A recent study conducted by Anglo American in collaboration with the Hydrogen Technologies Unit of the Catholic University of Chile has shed light on the feasibility and impact of establishing a green hydrogen valley in the central zone of the country. The findings reveal a transformative opportunity, with the potential for significant investments, job creation, and a substantial reduction in carbon emissions.

The concept of a green hydrogen valley revolves around the large-scale production, distribution, and utilization of green hydrogen derived from renewable energy sources. Chile, endowed with abundant renewable resources like solar and wind, is well-positioned to harness these natural assets to produce green hydrogen through electrolysis – a process that separates hydrogen from water using electricity generated from renewable sources.

The study by Anglo American and the Catholic University of Chile delved into the possibilities of creating eight green hydrogen valleys in the central zone of the country. These green hydrogen hubs would act as centers of excellence for the production and application of green hydrogen across various sectors, promising a host of benefits for the nation’s economy and environment.

One of the most significant outcomes of the study is the projected economic impact of developing a green hydrogen valley in Chile. The initial investment required for establishing the infrastructure and facilities is estimated to be around $3.5 billion. While this may seem substantial, it is a crucial step towards achieving long-term sustainability and energy security. Moreover, the investment in green hydrogen infrastructure can act as a catalyst for economic growth and development in the region.

A green hydrogen valley has the potential to create approximately 10,000 jobs, offering new employment opportunities to local communities. As the green hydrogen industry grows, additional job openings may arise across various sectors, fostering economic diversification and growth.

Perhaps the most compelling aspect of the study is the environmental impact of a green hydrogen valley. By replacing conventional fossil fuel-based energy sources with green hydrogen, Chile could mitigate around 3,000 ktons of CO2 emissions annually. This is equivalent to removing 850,000 cars from the roads each year, making a substantial contribution to combatting climate change and reducing the country’s carbon footprint.

The study conducted by Anglo American and the Catholic University of Chile showcases the transformative potential of a green hydrogen valley in the central zone of the country. From significant investments and job creation to substantial carbon emissions reduction, the benefits are far-reaching and aligned with global sustainability goals.

As Chile explores avenues to transition to cleaner energy sources, the development of green hydrogen valleys stands as a promising step towards a sustainable future. By capitalizing on its abundant renewable resources, Chile can become a frontrunner in the green hydrogen revolution, contributing to a greener, cleaner, and more prosperous planet.
