Brazil could lead global production of green hydrogen, study shows

O green hydrogen It is produced without carbon emissions and uses renewable energy (hydro, wind, solar and biomass). It is the only one with sustainable and carbon-free production and is seen as a key element to make the decarbonization of the Earth possible, one of the goals set by countries around the world by 2050.

The Roland Berger study foresees the opportunity for green hydrogen represent direct investments in Brazil of around R$600 billion over the next 25 years.

According to research, reducing the cost of electricity to produce green hydrogen in Brazil it can be achieved through:

• use of surplus renewable electricity (wind, solar, hydro and biomass), using current surplus renewable production at much lower generation costs;
• the costs of transmission and distribution of electricity used for the production of green hydrogen should be reduced;
• government exemptions and sectoral charges applied to the electricity bill must be approved.
