This marks a pivotal moment in Egypt’s commitment to sustainable development and its aspirations to become a global player in the field of green hydrogen.
What Is Green Hydrogen? Green hydrogen is a clean energy carrier produced using renewable energy sources, such as wind or solar power, to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. This process produces zero greenhouse gas emissions, making it a key player in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Headed by Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, the council comprises key ministers and high-ranking officials from various ministries, as well as industry experts. Its mission is clear: to unite Egyptian efforts in stimulating investment in green hydrogen and its derivatives.
Key Functions of the Council:
- National Strategy: The council will oversee the implementation of the National Strategy for Green Hydrogen and propose updates in line with international and national developments.
- Policy Coordination: It will approve policies, plans, and mechanisms necessary for the implementation and updating of the National Strategy.
- Obstacle Overcoming: The council will propose solutions to overcome obstacles to investment in green hydrogen and its derivatives.
- Regulatory Review: It will review legislation, regulations, and rules governing green hydrogen and its derivatives.
A Unified Approach to Sustainable Development: The establishment of this council signifies a unified and concerted effort by various government bodies to promote sustainable development. By encouraging investment in green hydrogen, Egypt is not only aligning with international sustainability goals but also creating opportunities for economic growth and competitiveness on a global scale.
Conclusion: Egypt’s commitment to the establishment of the National Council for Green Hydrogen and its Derivatives is a testament to its dedication to sustainable development. This move not only promotes clean energy but also positions Egypt as a regional and global leader in the field of green hydrogen.
