#19: Clean Hydrogen Agreements: Serving European or local needs?
Update: 2025-05-06
Description
The EU is increasingly looking to import clean hydrogen to provide an alternative fuel source for the industry and transport sectors, and to meet its decarbonization targets. Often, this means setting up agreements with countries in the Global South. At first sight, these could be mutually beneficial, but recently they have received a lot of criticism. Critics argue that they go against local needs and view them as a form of green colonialism.
Marie Dejonghe gives her insights on clean hydrogen partnerships, their risks and how to make them more equitable.
