The Global Programme aims to promote a Just Transition of industry in developing countries and transition economies by fostering local production and application of clean hydrogen. The programme has two key pillars of work: The Global Partnership for Hydrogen in Industry and the Technical Cooperation Programme.
The partnership acts as a platform for Member States, industries, private sector, investors, research and academic institutions. It provides opportunities for policy dialogue, awareness-raising, knowledge sharing and joint project development. Through the TC Programme, UNIDO cooperates with industry and government in developing countries and transition economies to design and implement specific clean hydrogen projects in developing countries. These projects focus on the decarbonization of hard-to- abate sectors and aim to stimulate innovation and the application of locally produced clean hydrogen, thereby, creating additional job opportunities and economic gains for the respective region/country.
