Oman aims to produce 1 million tonnes of green hydrogen by 2030 in net-zero push

 


 

Oman

Oman plans to produce a million tons of green hydrogen by 2030 and has set up a state-owned company as part of its plan to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Hydrogen Oman, better known as Hydrom, will be a subsidiary of Oman’s state-owned Energy Development Oman, the sultanate's state media reported on Sunday.

Oman has earmarked two blocks in the southern port city of Duqm and another four blocks in Salalah to be tendered for the development of green hydrogen projects.

On November 6, Hydrom will open a first public bid round to award the first land blocks by 2023 to meet its production target.

Hydrom will oversee the development and construction of the projects, while working closely with the Oman’s Public Authority for Special Economic Zones and Free Zones.  Join: Hydrogen Oman
