Developing Hydrogen Projects in the MENA Region Despite Higher Costs

Hydrogen is a key solution for decarbonising heavy industry and transport in the MENA region, yet challenges remain due to high production and transportation costs. While pipelines offer a cost-effective option for localised hydrogen transport, marine shipping methods such as ammonia and liquefied hydrogen involve higher expenses.

In our latest technical article, Bilal Hassan, Senior Energy Transition Consultant – East Region at Penspen, provides an in-depth analysis of these hydrogen transportation methods. He explores their cost implications and examines how technological advancements could improve hydrogen’s viability. Download the article now to gain valuable insights from Penspen and learn how to address these challenges and advance your hydrogen strategies in the MENA region.
