South Africa spelled out a detailed green hydrogen pursuit at the United Nations Industry Development Organisation (UNIDO) conference attended by 70 countries in Vienna on Wednesday, April 8, when South Africa’s Industrial Development Corporation Just Energy Transition Investment Plan (JET-IP) programme director: green hydrogen Rebecca Maserumule outlined the steps South Africa is taking to initiate first-mover green hydrogen project development. From a critical metals perspective, South Africa is the host of the overwhelmingly largest global volumes of platinum group metals, which can serve as catalysts in electrolysers that separate water into hydrogen and oxygen and then play a second catalytic role by converting the hydrogen back into electricity that provides emission-free mobility for buses, trucks, trains, cars, ships and planes as well as stationary electricity.
