Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) produces more than 300,000 tons per year of hydrogen, and plans to increase its production to 500,000 tons per year. The roadmap to achieving hydrogen leadership was announced during the World Summit Climate Change Conference "COP26" in Glasgow. The roadmap to achieving leadership in the field of hydrogen includes three main objectives, namely open new sources of value creation by exporting low-carbon hydrogen and its derivatives and products to the main import areas. The UAE also aims to enhance opportunities for new hydrogen derivatives through low-carbon steel and sustainable kerosene, in addition to other priority industries. which contribute to achieving climate neutrality by 2050.
