I welcomed the decision of the Government of Mexico to promote the production of Green Hydrogen through a Danish Investment Fund that will promote the interoceanic corridor, an economy based on this future energy vector, will develop the economy of our region of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. I have always seen the potential of Southern Mexico for the production of Green Hydrogen since I published my firts paper. After all, i wasn't far from that idea and that one day, A Danish private fund saw this great potential for energy production in our region and decided to invest. This great project will generate thousands of jobs, and most importantly an economy based on the production of Green Hydrogen. And in this way, make a faster transition from the use of renewable energies and global decarbonization. Immediate decisions and actions need to be taken to combat climate change.

Two days ago I shared the good news of #Bolivia taking a step forward towards #energytransition and being ready to present its low carbon and #greenH2 strategy; now we take another step, this time again through #Oruro’s government and representatives. A national green #H2law was presented with the goal to incentive this industry in #bolivia with private and/or public investments. This law will be presented tomorrow at the Parliament. All this aligned with the #MHE goals and needs of Bolivia and the public and private sector that is focused on the #energytransition and economic alternatives in this country. #greenammonia #emethanol #solar #ypfb #gasnatural #greenprojects #m&a

It was a great pleasure to participate in the First Session of the Advisory Board of this Public-Private Partnership for Strategic collaboration to set up a common vision to develop the Green Hydrogen industry in #Mejillones, in the north of #Chile. This initiative is promoted by the Centro de Innovación UC Anacleto Angelini and H2 Chile, with the support of Mankuk Consulting & Services S.A., and seeks to bring together all the stakeholders of the Mejillones Hub ecosystem to together address the challenges of preparing the foundations for the construction of a new green industry for Chile. Chile has set ambitious goals for the development of a green hydrogen industry and Mejillones was identified to offer the best opportunities and conditions for establishment of hydrogen projects and infrastructure to export green energy to other markets. To achieve this goal, there is a lot of work to be done, and for that it´s important to start NOW. There is no time to lose. A big #thankyou to all the participants and the interesting insights. We have a unique opportunity to create synergies to help the green hydrogen industry to move forward in a sustainable and inclusive way. Only together we will be able to overcome our common challenges and achieve our goals to a green future.

*The first hydrogen plant for public use in Aragon (Spain) will arrive in the first quarter of 2024.* The project, developed and promoted by the CSIC (Higher Council for Scientific Research) in collaboration with the Aragonese compaiesy Zoilo Ríos and Arpa are participating, will be installed at the Zaragoza Logistics Platform. The first private hydrogen plant for public use is an innovative initiative that will use green hydrogen generated on-site with solar energy. Arpa executives have commented that they are also working with CAF (railway construction) to create the first green hydrogen train dispensation in Spain. Its commitment to these new technologies is also reflected in a joint initiative for the industrial decarbonisation of industrial estates based on the storage of surpluses in green hydrogen.

#Colombia's ambition to lead the regional energy transition has sparked keen interest in the potential of #hydrogen #hubs in the country. However, assessing potential locations for these hubs poses significant challenges, particularly in terms of feasibility, scale, and the ability to integrate with local economies. In an exclusive interview with H2 Business News, Luis Miguel Diazgranados, Operations Manager at HINICIO, assesses the key factors determining the viability of these zones in Colombia. He evaluates the actual potential of specific regions, such as La Guajira, Barranquilla, and Cartagena, and explores how they can effectively meet local demand across diverse sectors, including industry, transportation, and residential applications.

EXPERTS ANALYZED THE CHALLENGES TO PRODUCE GREEN HYDROGEN IN THE ANTOFAGASTA REGION [Reporte Minero] With projects underway and a clear roadmap, Antofagasta is positioned as a leader in the transition towards clean and sustainable energy. At the Universidad Católica del Norte (UCN), the seminar “Conditions for the competitiveness and sustainability of the green hydrogen and derivatives industry in Antofagasta” took place this Wednesday, January 24, in which the results of a project executed by a Chilean-German consortium to develop a sustainable green hydrogen and ammonia industrial park in Antofagasta, optimizing regional infrastructure, were presented. The event, which took place in a context in which the country seeks for green hydrogen to cover 17% of energy consumption demand by 2050, was carried out within the framework of the International Hydrogen Ramp-Up Program (H2Uppp). promoted by the German cooperation agency GIZ.
