For the GCC countries, hydrogen is becoming not only a tool for energy transition, but also a factor in strategic sustainability in the context of increasing global competition. Its inclusion in regional energy development strategies contributes to an increased role for the Gulf in ensuring stable energy supplies and strengthening the international energy security architecture. However, the success of this process will depend on the ability of states to minimize environmental and technological risks, harmonize certification standards, and build long-term partnerships with key importers in Asia and Europe. This chapter will discuss how the GCC countries can use their hydrocarbon heritage to advance in the hydrogen economy, assess the extent to which it contributes to strengthening regional and global energy security, and identify the risks and conditions for the successful implementation of hydrogen strategies.

摘要

For the GCC countries, hydrogen is becoming not only a tool for energy transition, but also a factor in strategic sustainability in the context of increasing global competition. Its inclusion in regional energy development strategies contributes to an increased role for the Gulf in ensuring stable energy supplies and strengthening the international energy security architecture. However, the success of this process will depend on the ability of states to minimize environmental and technological risks, harmonize certification standards, and build long-term partnerships with key importers in Asia and Europe. This chapter will discuss how the GCC countries can use their hydrocarbon heritage to advance in the hydrogen economy, assess the extent to which it contributes to strengthening regional and global energy security, and identify the risks and conditions for the successful implementation of hydrogen strategies.
