Hydrogen Society Roadmap
South Africa holds significant advantages for green hydrogen production, including abundant renewable energy resources, existing industrial infrastructure, and access to global shipping routes. Hydrogen could play a key role in decarbonizing the energy system, supporting sectors like transport, industry, and power generation. To promote its use, policy tools such as incentives, public-private partnerships, and regulatory frameworks are essential. Enabling actions are also needed in areas like R&D, skills development, and inclusive participation—particularly in building human capital and ensuring gender equity in the hydrogen economy.

Scotland - Hydrogen action plan
…hubs. It defines some actions across production, domestic market, sectoral coupling, supply chain, workforce, international partnerships and innovation. Aspirational targets of 5 GW of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen (450 ktpa) by 2030 and 25 GW by 2045. This could create a gross value added of GBP 5-25 billion and 70 000 - 300 000 jobs could be protected or created by 2045. Rnewable hydrogen production alone could reach 3.3 Mtpa in 2045 with 2.5 Mtpa of that exported to the rest of the UK and Europe. GBP 100 million of public funding made available for hydrogen projects
