Green Hydrogen Development in the Middle East - Saudi Arabia leads regional green hydrogen development through NEOM’s hydrogen hub, targeting exports to Asia and Europe.
Green-hydrogen initiatives represent a new phase of renewable-energy utilization in Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East. Using electrolysis powered by renewable sources, hydrogen production supports industrial decarbonization and export diversification.
Saudi projects such as NEOM’s green-hydrogen plant highlight integration of renewable generation with large-scale electrolysis facilities. Infrastructure development includes desalination, power supply, and ammonia-export terminals.
Regional collaboration with neighboring Gulf states aims to establish hydrogen corridors and export frameworks. Technological considerations include cost reduction in electrolyzers, renewable-energy efficiency, and transport safety.
