Africa’s Green Hydrogen Potential Abundant Sun and Wind Alone Won’t Beat Europe’s Costs
By 2030, Africa could emerge as a key supplier of green hydrogen to Europe—but only if European policy interventions address the continent’s prohibitive financing conditions.
Global demand for hydrogen reached nearly 100 million tonnes (Mt) in 2024, up around 2 % from the previous year and largely driven by traditional industrial uses such as refining and ammonia production.
Dutch pension fund manager APG has announced a €300 million ($350 million) growth investment in Amsterdam-based energy storage developer Return, aimed at expanding its battery energy storage system (BESS) portfolio across the continent.

DESCO Infratech Limited has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with KPI Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Private Limited and Naveriya Gas Pvt. Ltd to jointly develop hydrogen–natural gas blending projects and associated infrastructure nationwide.
Germany is stepping up its decarbonization efforts in aviation with a new power-to-liquid (PtL) initiative at the Leuna Chemical Complex. Four industry leaders, Topsoe, Sasol, the German Aerospace Center (DLR), and Griesemann Gruppe have formalized a cooperation agreement to construct, operate, and conduct research at DLR’s Technology Platform Power-to-Liquid Fuels (TPP), a large-scale facility focused on producing and testing sustainable aviation fuels (SAF).
Oman’s state-owned green hydrogen company, Hydrom, has signed an agreement with Ankaa Space & Technologies LLC to oversee wind data collection, a step that signals the country’s growing focus on renewable energy as part of its broader energy transition strategy.
OECD electricity generation reached 1,027.6 TWh in July 2025, marking a modest 2.3% year-on-year increase, yet beneath this incremental growth lies a sharply bifurcated energy transition—one where renewable capacity expansion accelerates while structural vulnerabilities in traditional power systems emerge.
