At this year’s Green Hydrogen Summit held at the Century City Convention Centre in Cape Town, Electricity Minister Kgosientso Ramokgopa cast doubt on the inclusion of green hydrogen in South Africa’s Integrated Resources Plan .
Leaders from the Northern, Western and Eastern Cape provinces plan to formalise a memorandum of understanding, committing to joint efforts in advancing the green hydrogen industry. This includes infrastructural development, trade initiatives and human resource development. ‘Therefore, the cost elements associated with green hydrogen are a bit more prohibitive. As you construct the IRP, you must also keep in mind the cost to the end-user; it’s got tariff implications,’ he stated.
‘The major industrialised countries of the North are likely going to be prepared to pay an adjusted cost premium because they really want to get to the targets of net zero ,’ he added.
