The GreeN-H2-Namibia project, a collaborative effort between DECHEMA Gesellschaft für Chemische Technik und Biotechnologie e.V. and the ISOE – Institute for Social-Ecological Research and funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, has released a detailed factsheet focused on Namibia's energy sector. This release is part of an ongoing initiative to bolster a hydrogen economy within the country.
The document provides an essential overview of the energy landscape in Namibia. It is tailored to individuals who may not have in-depth technical knowledge of the energy sector, as well as international stakeholders who are interested to invest in Namibia, especially in the green hydrogen economy. The factsheet encompasses vital information regarding principal stakeholders, the existing regulatory framework, and gives an expansive review of the electricity sector. This includes information on primary energy carriers, dependencies on imports, and the trends in electricity pricing over recent years.
Considering the fast-paced changes in the energy sector, mainly driven by renewable energy, the factsheet will be subject to regular updates. This iterative approach ensures that the information remains current and reflective of the actual state of the energy sector in Namibia.
Understanding the energy sector's intricacies is crucial for both local decision-making and international cooperation. This factsheet serves as a factual, non-technical foundation for all stakeholders involved. It aims to facilitate informed discussions, strategic planning, and responsible investment in Namibia's green hydrogen ventures. The factsheet is an important step in bridging information gaps and providing accessible, reliable data for those interested in investing in the country's sustainable energy future.
The factsheet is part of GreeN-H2 Namibia and the project’s commitment to providing ongoing, fact-based insights and educational resources necessary for understanding and participating in the emerging opportunities within Namibia's green hydrogen economy.
The factsheet is available for public access and download at: https://dechema.de/Forschung/Projekte/GreeN+H2+Namibia/GreeN_H2_Namibia+project+...
