South Africa Eyes GreenHydrogen Investment Worth U.S.$250 Billion TheExchangeEA: SouthAfrica

While other African countries such as Morocco and Namibia have already positioned themselves as potential hydrogen producers. In 2021, Namibia announced an estimated US$9.4 billion green hydrogen project, scheduled to enter production in 2026.
