Green Hydrogen Vision

El Salvador’s green hydrogen vision focuses on integrating sustainable energy solutions into its economy to drive decarbonization, energy independence, and industrial growth. Leveraging its abundant renewable energy resources, including solar, wind, and geothermal power, the country aims to produce green hydrogen as a clean alternative for hard-to-decarbonize sectors like transportation, industry, and energy storage. This strategy aligns with El Salvador's broader environmental goals and international commitments to combat climate change. By developing a robust regulatory framework, fostering public-private partnerships, and investing in innovative pilot projects, El Salvador seeks to position itself as a competitive player in the regional and global hydrogen economy, ensuring long-term economic and environmental sustainability.
