SDG-Model on the Effects of a Green Hydrogen Economy

This study employs systemic modelling to project the impact of a green hydrogen economy on achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Brazil, Namibia and South Africa. Four simulated scenarios explore the role of green hydrogen in these countries’ national development by 2050, assessing interdependencies and potential impacts. Further scenarios can also be simulated using the tool.

Overview: Mapping Sustainability Certification Worldwide

As countries transition to cleaner energy sources, establishing sustainability criteria for the hydrogen economy is crucial to ensure that the industry operates in an environmentally re-sponsible manner, supports social well-being, and promotes economic growth. This document highlights the critical role of sustainability certification in the hydrogen sector and illustrates how certification facilitates trade by ensuring that hydrogen products meet established envi-ronmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards.

Introduction: Green Hydrogen Quality Infrastructure

The successful implementation of a hydrogen strategy also depends on the establishment of a robust Quality Infrastructure (QI). In the hydrogen sector, a well-developed QI is essential to mitigate the risks associated with the entire GH2 value chain. By fostering confidence in the conformity of GH2 products, processes, and services, QI plays a vital role in facilitating market acceptance and promoting global trade of hydrogen and its derivatives.

This document aims to provide a concise overview of Quality Infrastructure and offers insights into effective QI practices. It examines the experiences of three countries – Germany, Tunisia, and South Africa – each country differing in the extent of their QI. The provided information is intended to help stakeholders understand the significance of QI in advancing hydro-gen strategies and assist countries in developing, improving, or adapting their QI for transition to a low-carbon economy.
