Jordan has signed a memorandum of understanding with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development to support its goal of sourcing 50 percent of energy from renewables by 2033 through a more integrated approach combining project financing, regulatory reform, and infrastructure development.

Brazil’s installed green hydrogen capacity has reached 10 MW with the commissioning of a new 5 MW electrolyzer in São Paulo state, a modest figure that highlights both early progress and structural limitations in the country’s hydrogen economy.

A $665 million final investment decision on a 260,000 tonne per year low-carbon fertilizer plant in Paraguay marks a notable inflection point for hydrogen-based industrial decarbonization. The Villeta project, led by ATOME PLC, is positioned as one of the first industrial-scale facilities to reach financial close based on commercial fundamentals rather than direct government subsidy support.

The Netherlands will require an estimated 38,000 trained professionals to support its green hydrogen economy, a figure that underscores a growing constraint in Europe’s energy transition: workforce capacity rather than technology readiness.

India’s target of 5 million metric tonnes of green hydrogen production annually by 2030 would exceed the current global market by a factor of five, highlighting both the scale of ambition and the execution gap facing the sector.

A planned Mediterranean green hydrogen hub in Alexandria is moving into structured feasibility assessment after AlexFert, a subsidiary of Valmore Holding, signed a memorandum of understanding with Orascom Construction, Abu Qir Fertilizers and Chemical Industries, and UEG Green Hydrogen Development Holding Limited during EGYPES 2026.

Singapore’s position as the world’s largest bunkering hub is placing it at the center of emerging low-carbon fuel strategies, with ammonia increasingly assessed as a viable option for decarbonizing maritime transport where electrification remains impractical.

Roughly 4,600 households in Chile’s Coquimbo region are now receiving a natural gas blend containing 10% green hydrogen, marking one of the first residential-scale demonstrations of hydrogen injection into distribution networks in South America.

H2SITE has entered into a strategic agreement with Petronor to deploy membrane-based hydrogen separation technology at refinery scale, targeting improved process efficiency and enhanced carbon capture potential.

Australia’s hydrogen project pipeline continues to prioritize large headline capacities while relying on staged deployment to manage cost and demand uncertainty, a dynamic reflected in Edify Energy’s newly approved green hydrogen development in Queensland.
