government, academia, industry stakeholders to localize advanced electrolyzer technologies and empower local talent

› HydrogenPro aims to be a major player in the UAE's hydrogen

ecosystem, aligning with the 'National Hydrogen Strategy' of

1.0 million tons of green hydrogen by 2031, UAE Net Zero 2050 Initiative and 'Operation 300bn'

UAE has the lowest LCOH and is expected to maintain this

advantage through 2030, making it a highly cost-competitive hub for green hydrogen
