JUST-GREEN AFRH2ICA – Promoting a JUST transition to GREEN Hydrogen in AFRICA

JUST GREEN AFRH2ICA aims to develop a GREEN HYDROGEN JUST TRANSITION ROADMAP that would make African-European transition pathways to H2 synergic, sustainable (from the environmental and social point of view) and avoiding any “Africa hydrogen colonization”, but promoting a mutual benefit collaboration of the two continents towards the development of independent and collaborative hydrogen economies, R&D ecosystem and value chains. To do so, JUST GREEN AFRH2ICA involves key partners from EU and AU side at association (AHP and HYDROGEN EUROPE1), Academia and RTOs and policy making level. JUST GREN AFRH2ICA aims indeed to be the “stepping stone” of a collaborative hydrogen roadmap that, based on the analysis of different AU green H2 scenarios at socio-economic-technical level via partners’ tools (also assessing local resources – RES and water mainly as the key ones for green hydrogen production) , will also drive future investment and policies as well as the setup of local manufacturing lines.
